Welcome to the "Operation Owl Thank You" Blog Hop!!


Hi Everyone!
Today the Getting Cricky design team and some special guests are coming to you for a special blog hop "thanking" Kristal for all she has done for us. 
 We will each be featuring special "Thank You" card to be mailed to Kristal. 

Our Design Team term is coming to an end and we just want to be sure to let Kristal know how much she has meant to us over the last 3 month. 
 Wow, how time flies when you are having fun.  
If you are interested in participating, you can add your card to the link below and mail them to the address here.

If you've hopped along from Charlotte's blog then you are in the right place!! If you are just joining me from your dashboard, or reading this via email, please be sure to CLICK HERE to start at the beginning with Brenda's blog (I wouldn't want you to miss a THING!!)...

We have some Grand Prize Blog Hop CANDY for one lucky WINNER!!!  
Amy Chomas has graciously donated a mini gel pen set and holder
as our grand prize and some of the ladies have also added to the pot (surprise package).  

You must go to each blog and leave a comment (following would be nice also) to qualify for the grand prize.  

Brenda will be picking one lucky winner on Wednesday, July 27th.  So make sure to go back here and see if you won.

Here's my Thank you card to the 
Fabulous Miss Kristal!!
(I used the Food For Thought stamp set!)

 I have some candy of my own for you.  



Just leave a comment below finishing this sentence-
"Today I wish........"
(Just want to make sure you're actually reading this- lol!)
Random.org will choose a winner Monday morning!
