Liebster Blog Award

Hi everyone.  Well I have returned from my retreat weekend away and I had an absolute ball.  I love these weekends where you can just sit and do only craft (and in my case cards and boxes).  I have lots to show you although nothing this post (sorry have to take some photos first).  When I got home and had a quick look at the laptop I discovered that I had been given an award by Cynthia  called the Liebster Blog Award.  I was so thrilled to receive my first ever Blog Award and very grateful as well.

For those who are thinking "What is a Liebster Blog Award" well "Liebster" is German for "Dearest". The award is a "Share the love arrangement", given to inspirational bloggers with less than 200 followers, to bring attention to their blog, and increase their following!  I have to pick 5 more recipients whose blogs I think you would enjoy.  Pop over to see what they've done...and become a Follower.

Here's the to do list for any of the Liebster Blog Award recipients.

1. Show your thanks to the blogger who gave you the award.  

(Thanks again Cynthia)

2. Link back to the blogger who presented you the award.  

(Find Cynthia here)

3. Copy and paste the award on your blog.

4. Present the Award to 5 other deserving bloggers with less than 200 followers.

5. Let them know they have been chosen by leaving a comment on their blog.
