pay it forward

Paying it forward from chris' coop.
This is how it works: Christine has won a handmade item from the blog site that she entered the game at. Now she is going to pay it forward by making something for three other people And I am a winner! WOO HOO! how cool is this? i'm going to post this now, and i then i am going back to work, because i have a lot to catch up on after my quick vacation. Remember, if you want to enter this contest, you are going to also have to post your own "pay it forward" contest and create something handmade for the three winners!

i'm changing it just a little bit to try to give everyone a chance. instead of picking the first three comments on the blog, i'm going to pick three comments regardless of what order they are in. i'm going to let this "pay it forward" contest last until friday, 2/6/08 until 4:30pm EST. Then I'll use a computer generated program to pull three numbers and whomever happens to leave that number comment will win. so everyone has a chance!

The Rules are quite simple:
1.Leave a comment on this post, where the first word in the comment is "Yes". By saying "Yes" as the first word, you signify you want to participate in this give away. Being one of the first three to say "Yes" will then entitle you to a handmade item from me.
2. Winners must post this challenge on their blog, meaning that they then must Pay It Forward, creating a handmade gift for the first three bloggers who say "Yes" in a comment on THEIR future post.
3. The gift that you send to your three friends can be from any price range and you have 365 days to make/ship your item. This means you should be willing to maintain your blog at least until you receive your gift and have shipped your gifts. And, remember: It’s the spirit and the thought that count!
4. When you receive your gift, please feel free to blog about it, and link back to the person you recieved your gift from!
don't forget to actually say YES!
ALSO- if you are a follower, let me know in your comment. then you will get two chances. if you re-post my "pay it forward" giveaway on your blog (and obviously tell me in the comment), then i will give you an extra chance. So, if you comment, you link this giveaway on your blog and you follow me, you can have a total of 3 chances. get it? good. now comment, follow and link!

    MEGHAN: because you already said YES!" because i edited my post to include the link/follower extra chances... i'm just going to give you three chances. its not fair if i don't give you that chance. plus, you're already a follower and i know you'd link if you read that part before you commented!
    so three chances for you.

    EVERYONE ELSE: you have the chance to get up to three chances to win. i can be mighty creative!
