Bring Back Nice Blog Hop and Giveaway

Hi friends!  I'm so sorry that I haven't been doing any challenges or posts lately.  Summer has been challenging for us.  We are keeping busy and school starts again soon.

Today, we are doing a Bring Back Nice Blog Hop.  This is a little promotional hop to spread the word about our Bring Back Nice movement and to spread some NICE around the internet.  I opened sign ups to everyone so hopefully we will run smoothly.  Here are all the stops in case something gets jumbled.

Honestly, I feel like I've gone on and on about Bring Back Nice, what it means to me, and what I'd like to accomplish.  I'm going to leave you with a quote and a GIVEAWAY.
For the giveaway, I'm offering up a box full of paper crafting supplies.  You can use it for yourself or if you aren't a crafter, you can give it to someone else.  If you'd like to be entered, just leave a comment below about something nice that happened this week or your favorite quote about kindness.  If you'd like an extra entry in the giveaway, you can like the Bring Back Nice Facebook Page.  Leave another comment if you went and liked the page or already like it.  (ETA: I will announce the winner next Sunday, July 27th.  The box is only available for US addresses.  If you are in another country and you win, I will get you a gift certificate to Whisker Graphics.)

Next up on the hop is JAN!

  5. I traveled to another state recently and had the chance to meet up with a crafty friend. I teach Art to grade school kids and every year we make Mother's and Father's Day cards. She gave me several boxes of crafty items for my students to use. I thought that was awesome and so sweet of her.
