Eye Candy Creations blog is having a Birthday celebration!!!! Whoo-hoo!
Today it turns the big 3 ! Three years ago I sat down and nervously wrote my first post. If you wish you can click here to read.
Im opting to call it a birthday celebration instead of an anniversary. My blog started out like a newborn baby. Not too sure what I wanted to share and say and kinda feeling my way around blog world. I took baby steps and learned more and more about how to make my blog represent ME to the best of my ability. By the big 1 & 2 I had grown more and more comfortable in writing, and having fun expressing myself a bit more and really sharing myself with my friends and readers. Unbelievable doors have opened, and I've developed the most incredible friendships which where all created and blossomed thru this amazing blogging experience.
Now that Im celebrating the BIG 3 I feel like my blog has grown, evolved, and matured a bit. Naaaa! I will never take myself too seriously and I will always want to share the fun, silly, pretty, and simple things life has to offer. I do however like to think my blog get's better with age??? hee! hee!
In honor of this BIG day I am having a SUGAR~LICIOUS giveaway!
Drumroll.....
The goodies are as follows.
Eye Candy Creations sugar-filled kit.
(loaded with pretties and goodies inside)
This is just half of the goodies.
Flirty girl lip gloss. Perfect for the summer. Love this stuff!
A new set of tags I've created in which you can use for your girlfriends during gift-giving.
These beautiful embellished girl tags will look darling on a gift bag going to your blonde, red, or brunette girlfriend.
Also included is a sweet of lamb tags
Last but not least....a beautiful table dress mannequin with frilly petticoat. I used these beauties on my tables at my event. They look so pretty on a dresser!
Oops! I can't forget the most sweetest birthday bunny.
Yes, she too is included in the giveaway! :)
To enter please leave me a comment just ONCE. If you do not have a direct link to your blog please leave me your email address so I have a way of contacting you. I will draw a random number on Sunday July 11th. I know it's a bit away, but the family and I are headed on our beach vacation later this week, and we'll be gone for a full week. My next post will be on the 11th.
THANK YOU to all my loyal friends and readers. I cannot express how much I APPRECIATE and love you ALL! Every single comment I cherish and hold dear to my heart!!! I am always thrilled to have old and new friends stop by my little piece of Eye Candy Heaven.

Your sugar-licious give away is so fun! Girly & Sweet. That is just what I think you must be like in person. I have had so much fun reading and looking at your Blog over the past two and half years I feal like I should be sending you something. The only thing about the Blog world that I don't like is that you don't get the chance to chat with the FABULOUS people you meet. Thank you for all your hard work, and for letting us have a peek. Judi in Wahoo.
