The Breast Cancer Awareness Month Sign Project and Giveaway: Thank You and Congratulations

November 16th, 2011 by Karen 16 Comments

You made hand-drawn support signs, signs made from string, signs on sticky notes and even signs made with makeup!

You guys did it again, making the second year in The Breast Cancer Awareness Month Sign Project and Giveaway a big success, and even though the words, “thank you,” don’t seem like enough, I do thank you. Thank you for putting yourself out there last month in support of breast cancer awareness.

Every morning I’d get up, waddle over to my computer, and pull up my email to find your lovely smiles lighting up my screen. Your children, grandchildren, friends and beloved pets even made appearances, too.


The winner of this year’s giveaway, Patti, with her grandson and her sign

I feel privileged to have stood with you again this year. Sending you much appreciation and love…

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

      Hi BooBooNinja,

      I sent you an email right after you sent in your submission asking for the pic/link and never heard back from you. Maybe my reply got stuck in your spam filter?

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
