An Award and a Tag!

I received this Kreativ Blogger Award from my new stamping friend, Nancy Riley, over at iSTAMP.  If you have not checked out her blog before, you really MUST!  Nancy is incredibly talented, and her blog is amazing!

Okay, now I must pass the award on to some bloggers who inspire me.  It's so hard to narrow it down to just a few; but here goes:

Julie Buhler - Paper Pleasing Ideas - Julie is a fellow Control Freak Swapper, and an incredible stamp artist! 

Chat Wszelaki - Me, My Stamps, and I - Chat is a fellow Freak as well, who's amazing artwork inspires me every single day!

Holly McMillan - Toy's Haven - Holly is a fellow SplitCoast challenge junkie and member of the Dirty Dozen alumni.  Her work is out of this world fabulous!

Diana Gibbs - Stampin' With Di - Diana is a dear friend and cousin in the world of SU...but she's really more like a sister to me!  I just love her!  She's one of the most talented people I know too! 

Laurie Schmidlin - Just Give Me Stamps - Laurie is also a fellow Control Freak Swapper, who's work is among the best I've ever seen...just amazing!

Connie Babbert - Inkspired Treasures - Connie is another of my Control Freak sistahs, and I just love her fresh and clean style of stamping!  She is also a total DOLL! :)

Now, for a little game of tag...  I am really enjoying playing all this tag lately...haven't played this much tag since I was FIVE! heehee

I have also been tagged by Mauna over at ink~paper~scissors, which is great because now I've discovered another awesome blog!

So, now I need to share 7 random and/or weird things about myself...  Hmmm...here goes:

1.  I actually LIKE those orange circus peanuts that most people won't eat past the age of 5.

2.  I once totalled a car (trying to catch some zzz's...), flipped it over twice, smashed the windshield with my head...and didn't even get a concussion....explains a lot, doesn't it? 

3.  I hate drinking out of plastic cups...blech!

4.  I talk in my sleep.....a lot!

5.  I love a great comedy!  One of my all-time favorite movies is What About Bob?...."You think he's gone??? He's not gone...He's NEVER gone!"  I laugh hysterically every single time!  Or then there's the more recent scene from Maid of Honor..."She wants us to name our baby what?!    Athol.  We come from a long line of Athol's..."  Hee hee...I know, I know, it's terrible... but it cracks me up...I can't help myself...  especially since I live very near a town named Athol...never think of it the same again...

6. I get one hiccup every time I drink soda...just one and only one... every time...weird, I know...

7.  I am directionally challenged...sometimes I get lost in my own house....

Okay, now to tag 7 more fabulous bloggers:

Becky Carafa - {the lakeshore stamper}

Beth Silaika - Freckled And Fun

Charmaine Ikach - Oodabug Alley

Jackie Pedro - The Scalloped Edge

Jamie Sears - Stampin' Mommy of 4

Joanne Basile - ...just a little something...

Mary Brown - Stamper Camper's Corner

I know a lot of you get tired of being tagged, but as a new blogger I love it because it shows me so many new blogs I wasn't aware of. I'd love for any of you to come see mine!
