1st Anniversary GIVEAWAY!!!!!!

Today is my One Year Blogging Anniversary!!!! WooHoo! Let's PARTY!!

Thank you to everyone for visiting and leaving such sweet comments all year!! I really strive to bring you fresh and unique ideas, so it means a lot to me when you take the time to stop by and give me your feedback! :-) To celebrate and show my appreciation I want to give away some great prizes!! Yeah!! Thunderous applause! Let's get to it!!

Prize #1: Metal Wall Ichthus:"Woah," you're thinking, "that's major." I know! Didn't I say this was going to be a BIG giveaway?!! :-) This iron wall piece measures 40 x 28 inches, and will make a dramatic statement in your home or office! It features the Icthus or fish symbol used by those who believed in and followed Jesus after his resurrection - Christians. This art is also reversible so you have 2 color tones to match your decor. AND, most importantly, :-) it's a product I designed for DaySpring and it was their #1 selling product last year!!!! Yeah! Of course, one graces my home and I'd love for it to be in yours, too!! You can read a description here. One winner will receive 1 Metal Wall Ichthus!

DaySpring is a fabulous company - I love to work with them! They have VERY generously offered to give a discount on the Icthus to all my readers!!! You can purchase it for only $99 (regular $129) AND they have free shipping!! Let me tell you - this baby is the real deal - it's very heavy so that's a wonderful offer!! You must use discount code JWBLOG at the checkout, good through 3/1/09. ALSO, you don't have to wait until the end of the giveaway, because if you're the blessed winner and you've already purchased this item with my code, that money will be refunded! Thank you DaySpring!!

Prize #2: Gifts from my Simply Inspiring Hallmark collection:Yup, that's me doing the Vanna thing! Ha! I am excited to share with those of you who are new: I have a new line of gifts in Hallmark! It's a real honor. Most stores have been carrying the Simply Inspiring by Jeanne Winters collection since late fall.
