Liebster Award

Hi

I hope your weekend has got off to a good start, and wherever you are, the weather is improving (it's just starting to snow here - again!)

Last week, I was very thrilled to receive an email from Nicola over at Paper Profusion, giving me a Liebster Award.  The award is a way of highlighting to others blogs which you admire, so I'm extremely honoured and flattered that Nicola chose to nominate my blog, and thus highlighting my creations.  If you haven't visited Nicola before, please pop over to her blog as she is one very talented lady indeed.

About The Liebster Award
It is designed to be a blog award in the pay it forward fashion. Once you've been nominated, you award it to five blogs that you like (that have fewer than 200 followers) to encourage new visitors to visit these blogs. If the award has been received already then the nominator can elect another recipient blog.

Rules for Acceptance
Thank the person who gave you the award and link back to their blog. Post the award onto your blog. Give the award to five bloggers who you appreciate that have fewer than 200 followers. Leave a comment on their blog letting them know that you have given them this lovely award!

 I would like to say a huge "Thank You" to Nicola for sending me this award, I will be back later in the week with my nominations, but in the meantime, I hope you all have a wonderful week.
