A Quick Announcement, A Seasonal Look, & A Happy Dance (or Two)

Good evening everyone!  I've had a really great couple of days so I wanted to share some good news with you.  First of all, you might notice a different look on the blog today.  I just love Fall and Halloween so much, I decided to decorate :)  I hope you guys like it!

If you follow me on Facebook, you may have seen my update last night on my awesome news.  If you aren't following me, well then, click that little linky up there and join up! So, what is it, you ask that has me happy dancing like Carlton here? (And I realize I'm showing my age here, but if you don't know who Carlton is, I'm afraid I just can't help you)

Samantha of Gothic Gala Lacquers has asked yours truly to be a regular blogger for her polish!  I need another happy dance!

In case you can't tell, I'm pretty darn jazzed about this!  As those of you who blog know, it's hard work.  Aside from the nail polishing which includes painstaking cleanup, there's photo-taking and editing, social networking, and then you have to write the post and thinking up interesting things to say about basically the same topic several times a week is challenging to say the least.  Don't get me wrong, I love it, but it is hard work.  So, to be asked by an indie polish maker that I respect and whose products I love, to work with her on a regular basis to showcase her polishes...well, that feels pretty darn good! 

I've had a lot to celebrate lately with this blogging venture and, of course, it wouldn't mean near as much without all of you who take the time to read and comment on my posts and on Facebook.  I also mentioned that I'll be having a giveaway to thank you guys in the near future.  I'm calling it my Fall Hallow's Eve giveaway in honor of my favorite season and holiday.  The giveaway will start on Oct. 4th and run through Oct. 21st.  Since it will be a seasonal/holiday theme, I want to make sure the winners will be able to get their prizes before Halloween.  I'm working hard to get some fun goodies for you guys so make sure to keep your eyes out for the Rafflecopter widget!  The ladies from My Nail Polish is Poppin' have generously offered to join in and sponsor a couple of prizes as well...I can't wait to see 'em!

Thanks so much for reading!
