The Random Drawing – The Winners

I am blessed to have a wonderful blogging community; a group of giving and gracious bloggers who have supported me in my blogging journey as well as for the launch of my latest project, The Blog Boutique.

To all of you, I say “thank you”

To jump start the unveiling of The Blog Boutique, I set up a drawing and offered free advertising space, plus a personalized graphic, for a period of 30 days to six lucky winners.

I read each comment of the above mentioned post to determine who wanted to be included in the drawing (based on #2 of the rules).

Seventeen of you said “Pick me”.

Listed below are those who wanted “in”, with each of you having a number assigned to your name.

  1. Sam Liu of Thoughts, writings, coffee…
  2. Evita of Evolving Beings
  3. Davina of Shades of Crimson
  4. Deb of Sirius Graphics
  5. Julie of Sage Advice
  6. Lori of Think Like A Black Belt
  7. Vered of Mom Grind
  8. Evelyn of Abundance Tapestry
  9. Heather of Heather Villa.com
  10. Betsy of Passing Thru
  11. Julie of JBulie’s Blog
  12. Joella of Blogs With Wings
  13. Tony of Trottersville
  14. Janice of Sharing the Journey
  15. Zeenat of Positive Provocations
  16. Barb Hartsook of Over Coffee
  17. Linda of Forced Green

To pick the winners, I utilized Random.org.

Oh how exciting….the contest is nearly over….

And, …..(drum roll please) the winners are, in random order:

#14 – Janice
#11 – Julie
#17 – Linda of Forced Green
#16 – Barb Hartsook
#09 – Heather
#04 – Deb

Congratulations to those who won. Be watching for an email from me in which I will ask what you prefer to advertise – you, your blog, a service you offer, or a product (such as an ebook).

For those who did not win nor entered the drawing, stay tuned for future drawings in which I’ll be giving away more advertising spots on The Blog Boutique.

For your continued support, I am forever grateful.

    1. Thank you Betsy,

      And, thank you for being a cheerleader. Over the last few days I worked on more free headers. Now I just have to organize them and get them published.

  3. Congrats to all the winners. Do you have to make any more advatars for these winners, and if so, will you be making note of the ones that you have designed? You’ve developed quite the portfolio so far.

    Julie I just popped over to your blog and your art is gorgeous. My vote is in.

    1. Hi Davina,

      Yes. I’ll be making more advatars for some of the winners. I’m guessing Deb will just want to use her beautiful avatar, but for the rest, I’ll leave it up to them. Oh….what fun!

  9. Oh thank you!!!

    My blog will be back — it took a side journey somehow to another hosting company. One where I registered my domain, but have uploaded nothing. I’ve got a pleading request into them to switch me back!

    Glitches. Glitches. But I’m learning each time I have to fix one.

    So, when I comment and there’s notcomment luv, it’s not ’cause I don’t love you all. It’ll all be back. 🙂

    1. Hi Barb,

      Trust me. I know you’re not too far away. It’s unfortunate your blog is going through a glitch, but I, and the others know where to find you when it’s back up. See you Over Coffee….. 😉
