It's Finally Here... Blog Candy Time!!

*********** BLOG CANDY IS NOW CLOSED!! ******************************

The winner will be announced live on my YouTube Channel on Sunday, August 23rd. I will also create a post on my blog announcing the winner. Good luck everyone and thank you so much for all your subscriptions and super sweet comments... and thanks for participating! This was so much fun, I might just have another blog candy up for grabs again in the near future! :-)

Stay tuned.............. :-)

************************************************************************



Hi everyone! On July 18th I celebrated my 1 month YouTube anniversary. Yay! Also, my blog has been up for over a year now and I think it's time for some blog candy! :-)

Here's how to win:

I will be hosting a drawing on YouTube on August 23rd and will select a winner "live" on video. I'll have my 5 year old draw the name. You can enter the blog candy drawing several ways:

1.) Become a follower on my blog and leave a comment on this post telling me who your favorite celebrity is.

2.) Subscribe to my YouTube channel (mybutterflykisses12) and leave a comment telling me your favorite vacation destination.

3.) Mention my blog, YouTube channel, or blog candy on your blog and include a link to www.butterflykisseswithlove.blogspot.com

If you do all 3, you get entered in the drawing 3 times with a greater chance of winning the blog candy! It really is that simple! :-) If you are already a follower on my blog and/or are subscribed to my YouTube channel, you are automatically entered in the drawing 3x if you complete #3 above (otherwise, you are entered only twice.) :-)

Above is a picture of what's included in the blog candy. But here's a detailed list of what you get:
