OMW I am so excited, shocked, proud, happy and chuffed that on the 20th August 2013 I was given my first blogger award after only 8 months of blogging!

Who gave me this award I hear you ask . . . The lovely Elizabeth Ann from http://nellyandnoopy.wordpress.com/

SO WHAT HAPPENS NOW?

• The rules are that you must post the award, and who nominated you for it on the post
• You have to give 15 awards to 15 other bloggers that really deserve to receive it
• Leave them a comment on their page to let them know that they have been nominated for this award
• Then post 7 Amazing things about yourself, what makes you and your blog special!

AND IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER THE AWARD GOES TO . . .

HMM NOW THE HARD PART . . .

Seven ‘amazing’ things about myself and what makes me and my blog special

1 – I was rubbish at English at school and hated reading and writing with a passion – thanks to my blog I have a new found enjoyment for writing and dare I say I’m not too bad at it :s

2 – My blog is personal, scatty and random, a lot like myself.  It’s from the heart, about things that interest me and I support

3 – Through my blog I try to give back, i.e. highlighting local charities or important issues

4 – I have an eclectic style which I share through my blogs

5 – My blog is open and honest like myself

6 – My blog helped me to get my life back after beating Cancer

7 – My biggest obsessions are with photography, shoes, jewellery, nail polish, and baking!

Why not check out the bloggers on my inspirational awards list above 🙂

If you could nominate one blog/blogger who would it be?
