Give Away - Many Thanks!!!!


Whenever I see the list of visitors from all over the world that visit this Blog/Website, I am just overwhelmed. I thank each of you so very much for your interest in me and my bears (bunnies, elephants, turtles, etc.) I wish I could make a little furry friend for each of you, but since I can't, this is what I can do! The little lady in the photograph above will be given away on the last day of January and will hopefully reach the winner by Valentine's Day! I've named her Valentine and she will be bringing my love and thanks with her.

Now here's how we'll do it! If you would like to have a chance to win Valentine, please leave a comment on this posting with your name and email address. I will not publish any of these and will use that web place that picks random numbers to choose the winner. The contest will be over at 6 p.m. on January 31st of 2013 EST. I'll contact the winner at the email address listed and will publish the winner's initials and will let you know where Valentine will be traveling as soon as I have that information from the winner. I won't keep the information you put on the comment page and will not give it to anyone else - this is just between you and me!

I hope you can tell how soft Miss Valentine is from the photo above. She is so huggy and I've made a red wool felt hat for her with a silk ribbon bow on it. She is not suitable for children as she has sparkly black glass eyes. I'll ask the winner to send me a note saying that they understand she's meant for grown ups.
So - Good Luck! I hope you will enjoy taking part and I thank each of you more than you could ever know!!

Love to all,
Donna

EVERYONE PLEASE NOTE!!! YOUR COMMENT WILL NOT APPEAR AS I WILL NOT PUBLISH THEM TO KEEP YOUR EMAIL ADDRESSES CONFIDENTIAL. SINCE SEVERAL OF YOU HAVE WRITTEN TO ME WITH A CONCERN, I WILL EMAIL YOU TO LET YOU KNOW YOUR NAME WILL BE COUNTED WHEN I RECEIVE YOUR EMAIL! THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR INTEREST!

And the winner is!!!! MW in the U. K. Congratulations! Valentine will be flying across the pond soon!

Valentine has arrived safely here to England and she is even more precious than her photo! She has the most adorable face - I know ALL your bears do Donna, but hers is so gentle I really adore her. Thank you so very much. xx

I am thrilled that Valentine arrived safely with you (what a trip, eh?) and that you are pleased with her. You are most generous with your compliments, Melanie!
This has been my pleasure to be sure!
Much love,
Donna
