Midnight Madness Week #15 (MMSC15)

UPDATE 8-22-09: Hi Everyone, Just wanted to let you all know that the Surgery went just FINE :) {{{{{big sigh}}}} Now we are just dealing with trying to keep fluids in her and the pain to a minimum. Thank you everyone for your well wishes and personal emails. It has been very comforting reading them. Just a couple of things before I run, we had a really hard time picking our September Guest Designer Diva, but we have narrowed it down and have finally picked someone. We are now on the search for our October Guest Designer Diva, so keep linking up your wonderful work and let us know you would like to be our GDT for October. We get to do it all over again. Yay!! We are just thrilled with the enthusiasm to be a GDT for the Midnight Madness and what fun it has been checking out so much talent. So, THANK YOU everyone who entered. I will be announcing our Sept Guest designer shortly. I am still playing catch up and have not read any of my blog candy comments or even had a chance to make my rounds with our entries cards this week. Hubby is home today, so I think if I do a little sweet talking, I can have some computer play time to get up to speed today. Thank you again to everyone. I feel as if some of you are becoming really good buddies and it feels really good :)

The weekly BONUS WINNER for MMSC14 is
57. Lisa V
The MMSC14 bonus gift is being donated by “McMahon Five Designs” Lisa please email me your address so I can forward it to Sue and she can send you your goodies :)

Please note: If you have a Midnight Madness Award logo on your blog and it is having issues, I would be happy to email you the Picture logo instead of the html. Again I am so sorry for this..but I am learning not to depend on other sites for my logos from here on in :) I am finding that many of you have had this same problem, so I guess I am not the only one..LOL just emailme at heatup@verizon.net or you could always just copy the award from the blog too.

Hello everyone. I hope your all healthy and happy. I have a couple of things I would like to say before we get into the post. I want to thank everyone who has left comments, played our challenges and who I have gotten to know via email. Everyone I have met through this forum has been so nice and I am really enjoying my experience with blogging. Today, I experienced my first problem with blogging. Our Midnight Madness logo badge was having some issues. It was a photobucket and wordblog problem. As much as I love the blinkies, I have to admit, I was getting addicted to them LOL. I will be taking a break from blinkies for awhile due to technical problems. I would really appreciate it, if you would all replace your Midnight Madness blinkies logo with one of the picture logos from my side bar and just link it back to this blog http://priscillastyles.blogspot.com/ Again I am so sorry for the inconvenience, but I am learning, and I think that by not having to depend on other sites for the inter-workings of my own blog is best. In the long run, I think this will be more convenient for everyone.
On a personal note....I am posting early because I have a big day tomorrow along with a busy week. Tomorrow we are taking my daughter to the doctors and then on Friday, she is having surgery. She has “Hypertrophy of Tonsil and Adenoids” My daughter has had a small speech delay and we are hoping this will help with that, as well as her breathing problems. I know it is a common surgery, but please say a little prayer for her. I am sure she will be fine, it will be me that will be the nervous wreak LOL If any of you have experienced this with your kids, I would so love to hear any advice you can share with me.

You have till Midnight EST (8-18-09) to get your MMSC14 in for last weeks sketch. One winner will be drawn for our weekly BONUS GIFT give away from “McMahon Five Designs” on Wednesday. We will now be leaving Mr. Linky open for anyone who would like to enter their projects after the fact. We will have a “LAST CALL” posted to Mr. Linky at Midnight EST and any entries after that will not be eligible for our weekly or monthly drawings, so be sure to get your card added to Mr. Linky in plenty of time. If you miss the deadline please share your link with us, as we would still love to see your projects.
Thank you for stopping by and visiting the Midnight Madness blog…Now lets get to the fun!!!

Our Weekly Bonus Sponsor is
SUNSHINE’S STAMPS

They are being very generous with their give away this week and here is some cool information about Sunshine’s Stamps. Thank You Christina!

"Sunshine’s Stamps is the brainchild of Christina and Rob with a lot of wonderful input from Chrissy! There are a lot of Stamp Company’s forming up out there. Digital images seemed to be the way to go for us. We had been looking for a venture to do together for quite some time and after some poking and prodding I managed to inspire my Hubby Robbie into making his first attempt at a digital image. Now, I am very fortunate to have an accomplished artist as a husband. Not many out there can say that!! Robbie is an aviation and railroad artist of well known repute. His fine art can be found on his Website or on his blog which is dedicated to his mistress, the Argus this of course was the inspiration for our first image – Angus Argus.

A shortage of masculine images out there was really obvious to me, the mother of “my three sons”. Once we decided to go with manly images near and dear to Robbie’s heart we were on our way. Off we went. We have been developing different lines of stamps as we go and expect that we will continue to develop new lines as we grow and mature as a business. Currently we have the High Flyer series, Big Builders, Everyday Heroes and the two new series we are releasing here this week “Around the House” & “Teasers”. There are several other Series under development and we happily take image requests from our Design Team and our wonderful supporters. We thank our wonderful design team “SUNSHINE’S STAMPERS” for their wonderful creativity, enthusiasm and support. We hope you pop by our BLOG to see what is coming up and find links to the coolest cards and projects. Also watch out for our newsletter showcasing the tremendous versatility of digital stamp images.
