Here is just a little update on things you can look forward to……
We are planning a big celebration of our 350th NEW PLAYER!!! We are very close to having our 350th new Midnight Madness player!!! We will be having a big PARTY CELEBRATION when it happens!!! We have a lot in store for the lucky player!! When the confetti drops, lights start flashing and the sirens blare, we will shower our number 350 with tons of goodies and the Celebration will soon be launched. The celebrations will last a few days and will consist of a FUN BLOG HOP, tons of prizes for our players, a treasure hunt, race and a word puzzle. So stay tuned for all the excitement....could be next week, or it could be next month..who knows, so keep inviting those friends.

Regarding our “Refer a Friend For Freebies" started at the beginning of the month, there were some rules to follow in order to win the freebies and the grand prize. The deadline has past, but for those few who did refer a friend and contacted me via the "Rules" to let me know I will be sending you a stamp set as a "Thank You" gift from the MM team for referring your friends to our sketch Challenges. Thank you so much to everyone for all your efforts to help fill up Mr. Linky each week. We will most defiantly revisit this kind of monthly Fun again!!

Our Sponsor for the month of

September is....

DRS Designs is a small family owned company. They have been in the rubber stamp business since 1955 and have been thru many changes since that time. No change was more significant than the addition of art stamps in 1992. In the ensuing 16 years, they have grown their collection to more than 1000 original stamp designs with more being added each month. They offer online shopping from their website, a monthly club - Rubber Mania Monthly, as well as a Retail Store in Bethel, CT. If you are in the area ,be sure stop by their cozy Victorian shop and say hello! We will be learning more about the DRS Designs Co. and all that they have to offer throughout this month. They are offering the month end winner a $50 credit voucher to be used with their next purchase from their online store. We are so very luck to have them as our sponsor this month; they have also generously pampered our DT with their wonderful Stamps. This whole month you will be treated to some sample cards made with the DRS Designs rubber stamp images, so you are in for a big treat. I would like to send out a very special thank you to Cathy for letting us have this wonderful opportunity to create with your incredible stamp line.
