Blog Awards!


I am so excited, happy, humbled, honored, thankful, you name it, to have been nominated for the Brilliant Weblog Premio 2008 award by Casbah Kitten and Rainbows and Sunshine! I was also nominated by HealthNut Wannabee Mom - click here for my earlier post. I've been feeling the pressure to narrow my choices of nominees to pass the award to but I think I've got my choices in order now.

First off, I must admit that Casbah Kitten is one of the blogs that I have to (yes, have to!) check out every day to see what Jelly Bean and Pickles have been up to. In addition to making wonderful kitty toys, and now doggie items, those two are guaranteed to bring a smile to your face with their antics!

I also enjoy reading Rainbows and Sunshine's blog and I always tend to learn something new from her. Both Casbah Kitten and RainbowMom are fellow Etsy for Animals members too!


That being said, here are the rules for the nominees:

1) Add the logo of the award to your blog

2) Add a link to the person who awarded it to you

3) Nominate at least 7 other blogs

4) Add links to those blogs on your blog

5) Leave a message for your nominees on their blogs

Here are my nominees:

Luxor Lux and Silky are gorgeous kitties and it's fun to see what they have been doing.

DZFantasy - She's a very generous blogger and Etsyian who introduces us to other artists on her blog. Plus, she's very talented and makes beautiful fairies and mermaids!

Random Musings About Art & Life You just can't read DancingMooney's blog without liking this wonderful newlywed!

...aka Darzy... Aimee is a very compassionate animal lover and I admire her greatly. Her blog is always interesting and informative.

Tulip's Treasure Box I just met her through the EtsyBloggers team and she is rapidly becoming a favorite blog of mine. I enjoy her posts and her enthusiasm for our team!

PurrPrints: Art, Cats, and Randomness What can I say? I love her art and I love cats and you can find both at her blog!

Yeah, I know, that's only six but after sitting here for nearly an hour trying to figure out who should get that last position, I just say to all those with cat, dog or animal blogs of one kind of another that I drop my Entrecard on, I do stick around and check out your blog and appreciate the smiles you bring to my face!

Thanks again to Casbah Kitten, Rainbows and Sunshine and HealthNut WannaBee Mom for nominating my blog for this award! I appreciate it more than I can say!

Sharla, you have actually brought me watery eyes for thinking of me in such a beautifilled way.

You honor me in more ways than one.

Warm Fuzzy Love, afterall, I have 6 rescued furry family felines so I am always sporting cat fur. Clothes, floor, ceiling fans, countertops, you name it, they are the kings and queens of our lives. Poor un-loved (not), smile causing, LOL, unconditional, creatures.

A HUG!
