It is 11:00 PM Sunday night and I should be going to bed, but my head is racing with all that I have to do the next few days! Overwhelming really. I teach 5th grade and have grades to do, report cards to finish and lesson plans to complete. So even though I am tired, I am wound up!! So instead of doing work I am tapping into my creative side (see how I justify NOT doing work? LOL!) and made a few cards. This was a spring card I played around with. I wasted some paper on this card because it took awhile until I was happy with the composition. That's what I seem to struggle with the most...composition. Please share your comments and thoughts about the "blog candy." It seems most bloggers offer this...which I like when I go on someone else's blog. I noticed Trudee is offering blog candy (Which by the way, I hope I win!)for celebrating her first week in the blogging world. Maybe I need to do this....could be fun! I'll have to give it some thought:) Let me know what ya think!
I'm all for blog candy -- as you know! I actually wasn't sure if I would do this or not either. You know, you start something now and then you have to keep up with it. BUT, I know that I really enjoy trying to win it on others' blogs, so I leaned in that direction.
ReplyDeleteSo, I'm doing it. Sometimes I think I'll offer it for a certain # of hits, other times, I think I'll just offer it at random for advice. I explained my definition of blog candy on today's post. (And I posted a pic of my blog candy!)
All that said, though, I don't believe it's absolutely imperative that a blogger offer it.
WHAT, DO YOU EVEN HAVE TO ASK OF COURSE WE WANT CANDY! BUT IT'S TOTALLY UP TO YOU.
ReplyDeleteLOVE THE CARD.
I enjoyed looking through your blog. I am a teacher too and i have a pug. I added you to my google reader and look forward to "getting to know you" through your blg. I haven't posted in awhile I better get busy!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I have enough people that look at my blog to offer candy. I have thought about it but it seems like a publicity stunt and I have to examine my motives if I'm gonna do that. But, we'll see. I have won a couple of times and it is definately a fun thing.
Have a great week!
I think Blog candy is fun...it is also fun to see what kind of questions that everyone answers in order to qualify to be picked.(If that is the route taken.) I am new to this blogging thang...so I think it is a personal decision of the blogger. Whatever you decide..I am sure glad that I found your blog and am enjoying what you are creating!!
ReplyDeleteBlog candy is definitely fun...but do not feel pressured into following the crowd! Have fun with it.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. Especially your spring card a few posts ago. Very pretty.
