Fresh Baked! 12-10
What a busy time of year! As I right this newsletter though I’m watching a Christmas movie (the typical ones, boy meets girl, angel comes and helps them fall in love). Cheesy I know, but it puts me in the holiday spirit. Know what else puts me in the holiday spirit? Giving. Again, cheesy, but since I’m feeling all happy and cheerful how about some freebies? Ok, I don’t have one right not but maybe by the end of the newsletter I’ll have one for you. That isn’t all! Did you ever have those advent calendars? The ones with the chocolate behind the doors or ones with little prizes? Well we are having that here! Come back on the 14th for the beginning of our 12 days of Christmas. Each day for 12 days I will give you a link to download your surprise. You won’t know what it is until you download it, but trust me when I say you will want to download it. Doesn’t that sound like fun?
Make sure you check the blog everyday! You won’t want to miss a single one (each link will only be good for 24 hours – no exceptions).
I would like to give you something else. A new designer!!
