Drum Roll Please
After carefully tracking all the entries
After creating spreadsheets to assign everyone numbers for each box
After assigning numbers in the order the posts came in.
After trying to use random . org generator to pick a winner.
Really???
did someone say that service was easy?
so on to
Plan B.....
After coloring those spreadsheets
after cutting them into itty bitty pieces all the while cursing random . org
because I am extremely late at this point
All itty bitty pieces were placed in a cup
one color at a time
Then using the back up plan:
random . husband . hand
and he would NOT allow even a photo of his hand on my blog.
aarrrggghhh men !
aarrrggghhh men !
Yes after ALL that
We have 5 winners
Then just for an added twist
I dumped
ALL the itty bitties
back into the cup
and
For the Grand Prize
oh I didn't tell you about the grand prize?
a mystery box
of equally wonderful and gifts
goes to
Now it's your turn:
Contact me ...by email....
And I too will send the winners an email to let them know they won.

Wow - how did I miss this giveaway. I've been watching your blog - oh, well. Congrats to all the winners.
Thank you so much for the great giveaway and for all the work you did to determine the winners. I am delighted to say I was one of the lucky ones! Thank that great husband name picker!

I had to smile at your process of selecting winners....too cute! I signed up for the "One World One Heart" international blog event and stated that I would have my neighbor's daughter "draw a name from a hat." I had over 200 entries!! We had to use that Random.org thingy and it still took awhile to count to the numbers.
Anyway, you're so sweet do do all this. Congratulations to the lucky winners.
Many congratulations to the winners, and a huge thank you for your generosity. It's folks like you that make blogland the special place that it is.
Whew Marianne, you really worked hard on that (reminds me a bit of OWOH, I did all that cutting as well). I am so happy to be one of the lucky winners, how wonderful. Thank you for this very special giveaway. You rock!
This was just so generous of you!!! Love how you chose the winner and loved how you called me "Scrapwordswoma":)
