Butterflies Soaring High!! Give Away

OH HAPPY DAY!!!! NEW MILESTONES!!! 
NEW SEASON!!! NEW ART!!!!
"Soaring High" spring-time bulletin board of children's bright symmetrical paintings
As promised......... it's time to celebrate! It's time for a party!!
The butterfly is the perfect image for my emerging from darkness. 
It took me 3.5 years to gain my first 100,000 blog page views.
I had my second 100,000 blog page views in 3.5 months!


Welcome, if you're new here -- that says a LOT about moi!
Symmetric Butterfly Paintings for Spring: folded with color!!
Just as exciting as that progress in views, is the reaching of a new milestone: 
I have now surpassed the 1000 follower threshold as recorded by Facebook in their Networked Blog Follower list! Can I have a whoop-whoop?!?!?!?! Can I have a 'wow' she is indeed persistent (even if she is slower than the average butterfly.) 




How often have I said something on here about taking baby steps? I am the winner in the baby-step subdivision and category of  life  blogging! I have sooooo much to learn, but in the mean time I just keep eeeeking away. No kidding over time it amounts to progress! Forward movement. Advancement. 


Momentum turns a corner and away we go! Spread your wings!




Let's celebrate!!!! I would like to celebrate and reward my growing readership with the opportunity to win a SET of all three of my picture books: 
"You're Wonderful" + "Tall Giraffe" + "Red, White and Blue." In fact I will sign and personalize each book for the winner!!! 


The contest will be open for the coming week. There are three ways to enter. Leave a separate comment below for each of these three possibilities: 

  1. Officially follow my blog: choose FB or GFC
  2. Officially follow my Pinterest collection 
  3. Officially follow my Facebook fanpage 
You MUST leave me your email address in your first entry so that I can contact you for your snail mail address should you be the lucky winner. [You must live in the United States to help accomplish the shipping easily.]


***If you already are doing each of these three 'follow' methods, you are entitled to tell me so in three separate comments. If you are outside the US and want to enter and donate your winning set of books to someone inside the US that's especially kind of you and would be appreciated by the recipient. 


I can't think of any more fine print. This seems very self explanatory to me -- but that doesn't mean it makes sense to you, after all I'm still learning. The drawing will be next Thurs evening, May 10th. I will choose a winner at random with one of those high tech number generator dealies.

***Thank you to everyone for your support, encouragement and participation. Special thanks to my fairy blog mother, Charity at Teaching Blog Traffic School for holding my hand + pushing me forward! Thanks to Hosanna Lutheran Preschool for their inspirational spring projects.


I'm not trying to be trickie......
