First off I want to mention how grateful and honored I am that so many of you seem to like my cookie experiments. It's humbling and thrilling all at once. So I want to say THANK YOU
Now, I know, on Facebook I told everyone that I was going to host another give-a-way once I hit 1,000 Facebook fans. And 637 more fans later and here it is!
After I waited 637 more fans...*bad Ali* I knew I had to up it a bit from the last give-a-way. So here's what I am giving away:
1: Obviously a dozen personalized cookies from moi...list your demands....
2: Cookie Craft! I will be giving away a copy of Cookie Craft so if you are looking for a great book to learn the basic ins and outs of cookie decorating you will want to win this give-a-way!
3: The piece de resistance, 3 GORGEOUS hand crafted copper cutters from Ecrandal! I have mentioned on several occasions (at least on FB) how much I ADORE these cutters. They have the most unique designs available (some of which have been designed by fellow cookie friends of mine) and the quality is UNBELIEVABLE!! Honestly, my favorite cutters are Ecrandal cutters. And Eric and Jaime are some of the nicest people you'll meet. A pleasure to do business with.
** My favorite Dress Cutter - Julia**
Anyway, they have graciously gifted 3 of my favorites just for this give-a-way. Julia, Plaque, and 'Cheep' Bird. *swoon*
Alrighty... now that I have the hook baited....here's how you bite:
There are 4 ways to enter:
1. Become a follower of Ali Bee's Bake Shop Blog. Then comment HERE and let me know how much you love me for giving away this awesome stuff. If you already follow me then you my friend are very wise. Let me know how smart you are :)
2. Become a FB fan....I know I have 1,637 but you know...I'm vain and greedy. Come back to this post and let me tell me you like me. It gives me warm fuzzies and a give-a-way entry for you.
3. Tweet, FB, Blog, whatever about this give-a-way! Spread the news across the inter web! That's another entry for you!
4. Go check out Prayers, Love & Joplin and leave a comment. You don't have to contribute or pledge to bit to earn an entry but PLEASE consider donating or helping... I'm broadening your philanthropic ventures. Then come back HERE and tell me you care. :)
Please leave a separate comment for each entry! And remember I do moderate my comments so if you don't see your entry immediately please be patient, I will make sure it gets up there.
Deadline to Enter is 11:59 pm Friday, June 17, 2011.
Winner will be announced Saturday, June 18, 2011.
Let The Games BEGIN!!! :)
