ANYONE MAY ENTER FOR A CHANCE TO WIN!!!!!!!I have been wanting to host a giveaway for quite some time now. I have been blogging for over a year now. I must say, I couldn't be happier with all the blogging friends I have made during this time. To celebrate over a year of blogging and a super fun holiday I am giving away "Little Miss Halloween Kitty". She has put on her favorite collar and party hat in hopes you'll have her along on the night of tricks and treats.
All you have to do is leave a comment by 12 midnight on Friday October 24,2008 telling me what your favorite Halloween memory is and I will enter you once into the drawing. Wait there is more if you post about my giveaway, and link back to it on your blog, I will add your name 5 more times. It doesn't stop there (hehehe do I sound like a game show host?) If you add a button to the side of your blog about the giveaway, I will add your name another 5 times. That is a total of 11 times. I would really love for all of you first timers to my blog and those that maybe haven't left a comment before to feel free to enter also. These giveaways are way more fun when everyone gets in on the action. The winner will be announced on Saturday October 25th.
* "Little Miss Halloween Kitty" comes protected in a 5"x7" black plastic frame. She is a one of a kind hand made illustration by me. I use acid free scrapbook paper and scrapbook embellishments. I also hand embroider all of the stitching.

Count me in.My favorite halloween memory is when my husband checkered up his face with my daughters too.They went together halloweening.
I remember going trick or treating with my friend and her siblings. That was back when we could walk country roads alone at night! We got so much candy that we took pillow cases to keep it all in! It seemed like we walked for miles and miles!
My fav memory is the costumes my mom made us. Trying them on watching hew sew them, can't have had a better mom or Halloween memories.

I remember going to our school carnival and getting TERRIFIED in the "haunted house"
of course, i'll play along! favorite halloween memory is dressing up as a baseball player, wearing my big brother's PROPERTY OF THE YANKEES t-shirt and tucking my big wad of hair up under a hat. Andrew thought to smear mascara under my eyes like that reflective stuff and i TOTALLY looked like a boy. check my blog too, cause i am all for the extra chances...
Just got the adorable package in the mail...we loved it! It's on display here at home for Halloween and we'll be featuring him on the blog Thurs/Fri, along with your shop (which I'm sure will soon be stocked with fun stuff!)
Yay for giveaways! My favorite memory has to be the time we carved a pumpkin to look like a cat's face (complete with whiskers). Can't wait for the results -- and we'll be adding your giveaway as a button on our blog.
She's too cute! I don't have many memories of halloween . . . but last year we had a blast hiding candy in the house for the girls to find - tons of fun (it was too cold outside)
i used to have a darling little dog toddy a shih tzu.one year i dressed him up as a cat to help me hand out candy.well little toddy was so scared or isulted or both that he went flat out in the foyer and did not move for the entire nite.guess that showed me!!i dont have a blog so i cant do the rest==boo hoo buy wanted to share anyway!!
As kids in our neighborhood we each house would do a Haunted House walk thru! I miss that it brought the neighbors together! Was so much fun to see each house!
count me in, she's just to adorable. my favorite halloween memory is when one year i didn't have that much money to purchase my son Joshua a halloween costume. i knew that he was looking forward to trick-or-treating.i would look at his little face and i could see his excitement.i had to do something, i couldn't let him down. so i had to be creative. i made him a homemade costume and he was so excited. all i did was grabbed a white sheet and cut three holes for his eyes and mouth and there you go. that child was the happiest casper the friendly ghost i had ever seen.he never complained. he thought he was the coolest ghost. this was a very touching and happy memory for me.
God BLess,

Awww, this looks like my little black, Ninja kitty at home : )
Oh Summer what a cutie she is. My fav memory is when my mom dressed up as aunt jemimia and when to our church fall fest and my hubby came in and didn't even recognize her! What a laugh that was! Blessings, Karen
My favorite Halloween memory is going out with my friends alone and coming home with my pillowcase almost full of candy.
I posted about your giveaway on my blog already and have you added to my sidebar too!
Thanks for the chance to win your cute Kitty!!

my favorite halloween memory is of the older lady on our block who always made Popcorn balls to give away at halloween... they were great!
just ONE memory?
In 1992, I went as Medusa to a wild Halloween party. I painstakingly whipstitched about 100 different sized rubber snakes all over a pantyhose 'cap' for my head and draped a 6 foot one around my neck.
I made the rest of the outfit too but the snake hair was perfect.
Yep...that outfit totally ROCKED.
I remember a time when I went tricker treating with my freinds and we went to my grandpa Tom and grandma Carrols house and we hit it like five times before my grandpa Tom found out so we got lots of candy off of them we would have got lots of candy off of them any why even if we did not do that because they would have gave us like five big hand fulls.

My favorite Halloween memory...not sure if it is my favorite or not, but I remember really wanting to wear a particular pair of shoes this one Halloween. My mom must have thought they were too small, but I begged, assuring her that they were fine. BIG FAT LIE-my feet hurt like the dickens that night and I froze to death too!!

Came here from Lori's blog...
My favorite memory is taking my younger brother, 11 years younger than me, trick-or-treating through a Minnesota snowstorm that ended with over 30" of snow!! My boyfriend and I took my brother and his friend out for over three hours and had a blast - though it got very difficult to walk on the trek home.

My favorite Halloween memory is taking the kids trick or treating once they "get it" and seeing their faces light up with amazement.

Halloween is always my favorite holiday and I can't pick just one! Our family always had a ton of fun dressing up and decorating the house. Anyway, you are very talented Summer and I love seeing all of your stuff. Hugs and kisses to all. Love Jen

Please add me in the give away! That kitty is cuper cute!
I've posted it on my blog as well :O)
My fave memory... would have to be- warm homemade chili and corn bread before trick or treating. We were nice, warm and full! We were allowed 2 candies while walking around too. My Mom always checked it first!

My daughter's first halloween two years ago. She was a pumpkin
How cute!! Thanks for hosting this giveaway!
My favorite halloween memory has to be from last year. We had a costume contest at work (my husband and I were Waldo of "Where's..." fame) and then we helped staff the carnival at our church. It was so fun to see all the little kids dressed up!
My favorite Halloween was the year my mom made a costume for me to be the Statue of Liberty. I had a flashlight for a torch and a real crown too.
I think my favorite Halloween memory was when my son was about 2 and went trick-or-treating for the first time. I put him in a little kitty outfit and he just looked so plump and pouty but doggone it, he was adorable. I remember him just keeping a straight face the entire time until he realized that he had a whole bunch of candy. That's when it got real.

Miss Kitty is so fun and cute! I really hope she can join us this year at our celebration. Halloween memories seem to all run together. It was so much fun as a kid to dress up. My dad would take me and my siblings out to trick or treat through the neighborhood. Now that I'm much older, it seems just as fun if not more to hand out treats to all the kiddos in my neighborhood. I love seeing all the creative costumes. This year will be especially fun with my new baby girl Allison. She's going to be a bumble bee along with her dog/brother who has a matching costume. Hubby and I will be the bee keepers. My sister is having a super fun party. I think it will be the best Halloween EVER!
My favorite memory is when I was in grade school, and the school had a carnival with a haunted house and a cakewalk. When we got home we watched the Wizard of Oz on TV. My mom has always made a big crock pot of beans or chili and homemade doghnuts for as long as I can remember!
EEEK, am I number 35? It sure is hard to win one of these adorable pieces. I guess that is why I bought one. Still, please add my name to the basket. There is a big fund raiser for the Reno High School Band in the spring and if I win a piece it will go up for auction then.
When I was in 6th grade I had a halloween party. My parents were managing apartments at the time. They turned an apartment into a haunted house for me and my friends. They went all out. Dry ice, stuff falling out of the attic, friends hiding in the closet....so scary, but so great that they all went out of their way to do that for us!
Wow! I just found your blog thru Lori and just love your creations! You are one talented gal :)
My favorite Halloween memory is taking my son out for the first time Trick-or-Treating. I was a teary mess ;)
Thanks for the opportunity to win your darling Halloween Kitty!

The year I was an owl (8 years old, I think) I won costume contest and my prize was a gift certificate to the card and gift shop down the street called The Sister Shop, owned by the cutest old-lady sisters. They were there of course, to present the prize and I asked if they could open up their shop that night because I knew exactly what I would by. They agreed and as soon as they opened the door I pointed out a stuffed dog with jingle bells in it's floppy ears that came in a paper carrier. His name is Jingles and he still lives with me!
Oh Summer, I'm almost to late, I did put it on my blog, but I'm late I know.
My best memories, when I was growing up the kids could go to all the neighborhood and just fill up with candy. None of this scared to go to the wrong houses. Mom and the other ladies around the editions would walk with us and we just had a blast.
Thanks for having this,
Bonnie
