If you've been reading my blog lately, you know I've been on an Altered Lunchbox Tin kick. (See other tins HERE and HERE). I've been saving this one just for this occasion! Yep, you can WIN this CUTIE PIE Altered Lunchbox Tin and Dividers ... specially made for organizing your handmade greeting cards!
The dividers are labeled: Birthday, Thank You, Holidays, Get Well/Sympathy, Friendship, Congrats, and Misc.
So how do you WIN? See this jar of buttons? It's a jar I have on a shelf in my craft room .... all my miscellaneous buttons get put in that jar -- buttons from new clothing, buttons found in the laundry -- you name it, it goes in there! It's used more for decorative purposes than anything else.
Leave me a comment on THIS POST .... include your guess as to how many buttons are in the jar. I'd also love to hear how you found my blog! Was it through Splitcoast Stampers? another stamper's blog? (if so, who?), are you a local customer of mine? Whatever it is, I'd love to hear how you found me!
The button jar measures approximately 4" x 4" square and 3" tall without the lid.
I will end the blog candy on Wednesday 8/22 evening. Only U.S. shipping addresses please. In the event of a tie(s), each correct number will be assigned a number in order of post and a number will be selected by random.org. GOOD LUCK !!!

424 is my guess. I probably got pointed your way by another blogger, but it's been a while, so I don't remember who. Maybe Allison, since she's so good at that. You've done an amazing job to reach such a lofty goal in so short a time. Your work speaks for itself.
Rebecca (ceadmile00@msn.com)
Your tin is so adorable! And what a fun contest for blog candy! I'm sure I'm way off but I'll say 252 buttons. And I can't honestly remember how I found your blog - but it's very recent. I found it, added you to my google reader, and don't remember how that happened. :-)
Aloha Nancy,
Cograts on your 10K hits on your wonderful blog! I think I found your blog on SCS and Oodabug Alley.
Have been visiting your blog for your inspirations and creativity!

Hey Nancy - what an adorable tin, just love it. My Cutie Pie paper arrived yesterday and I can't wait to dive in. I think there are 382 buttons in your jar...I'm so bad at guessing...so I may have to case your tin since I most likely don't stand a chance of winning, LOL!
What a gorgeous tin- I tried one and it was a disaster. Maybe yours will inspire me to try again- maybe I'll win yours. LOL! I found you on Stampin When I Can blog and know I'll be a regular reader! Congrats on 10,000. I think there are 311 buttons...
I found you some time ago, probably through SCS. My guess is 324 buttons. What a great blog candy to win. Your creativity inspires me. Congrats on the success of your blog!
