This morning I woke up to 75 followers! How fantastic is that?? Of course I informed the Addams Family and, being the generous souls that they are, they immeadiatly started planning a giveaway. They went through many ideas but it was Uncle Fester that volunteered one of this favorite nail beds. The family just loved the idea of helping some of their devoted followers get a good nights rest. It has even been lovingly labeled "Rest in Pieces" by some member of the Family. Here you can see Murph modeling the bed for everyone (Murph is not included in the giveaway ;):
Yes, those are real nails and they are really sharp (just ask my fingers!).
I just want to say thankyou so much to everyone who has followed this blog! You guys are so fantastic and so encouraging!!! And I hope whoever wins this lovely nail bed can put it to great use in one of their creations!
Here's the rules to win:
Copy the following ballot into your comment....
My Favorite Character is:
Lotto drawing order:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
And now all you have to do is tell me your favorite character out of the following character list (this will be the first drawing):
Gomez, Morticia, Grandmama, Uncle Fester, Lurch, Wednesday, Pugsley, Cousin Itt and Thing.
And then pick 5 of the above characters in order of how you think they will be drawn (this will be the second drawing and you can reinclude your favorite character if you like). You get 2 points if I pull your favorite character (first drawing), and then one point for every character you get in the right order (second drawing)..... confusing enough? haha. Its just like the lotto but picking characters instead of numbers. A final draw will be held for anyone that comes out with equal points :)
Here's a sample ballot (this in no way reflects what the final out come will be - the order will be pulled at random):
My favorite Character is: Morticia
Lotto Drawing order:
1. Uncle Fester
2. Pugsley
3. Lurch
4. Thing
5. Morticia (I reincluded my favorite character but you don't have to if you don't want to)
I will post the lotto results and the winner Friday evening (7-10-09). You have to be a follower to enter but you don't have to be one of the first 75... if you join after this post we'd love to have you!!!
Also, Cate of Solet Luna answered the fastest on the bullet question a few posts ago so, Cate, you get an extra point added to your total!
Good luck everyone!!! And thanks again for all your support!!!!!
Ara and the Addams Family :)

Thanks Jayne! Well I'll put Mick in for his favorite character being Morticia... who knows... if the lotto falls right and no body at all gets someone in the right order... he could win :)
