Well I sincerely hoped none of you had your heart set on winning that Avon Peach Bubble Bath. Hubby decided to use about 3 oz of it the other evening to give Bo a bath — there were bubbles up to his ears. Lots of ways to look at this: He was giving the kid a bath — not many fathers (that I know) give their kids baths, particularly if the mom is a SAHM. He honestly didn’t know that bottle was being saved for this blog party — try explaining a blog party (and giving prizes away) to your hubby then you’ll know why I didn’t even bother to tell him about it. Besides it was pretty heavy and therefore it would have been expensive to mail (yes I’m a cheapskate — I picked it up from hubby). Anyway so I’ll be finding a new prize to add to the list before the week is out to replace that one.
Also remember the sale going on through the end of the blog party:
- All ready-made mouse drawn graphics and background sets are only $3! This includes my wide selection of M2MG (made to match Gymboree) graphics and backgrounds.
- All pre-made website templates ($35 and up) are marked down $15! So you can get a website template (including installation) for as little as $20! Click here.
So in the full party spirit I wanted to offer some GREAT sales over at My Pixel Creations. First ALL mouse drawn graphics and seamless backgrounds are only $3 (that’s up to a 75% discount). This does not apply to custom color graphics. Next you will find that all pre-made website templates ($35 and up) are $15 off. You can find templates for as little as $20!
So shop now cause this sale only lasts through the Ultimate Blog Party 2009 (March 20 – 27)!!

Hi, Hello, How are you?
I am a work-at-home mom. I have two sons who are 3 years and 7 months. Hubby and I have been married for 6 years. We live on a small farm in GA where we have horses, chickens, dogs and a cat. My business is Sara*s Pixel Studio where I design websites, graphics and print materials. I have another blog where I rant and rave on personal matters called The Captive Mommy.
I’ve had reports that some are unable to leave comments…I have no clue what’s going on 
I’ve tested it in both IE and Firefox and I’ve had other comments today. If you can’t comment here just hop over to The Captive Mommy and comment there. Sorry for the problems.
Blogs I’ve Visited So Far (this will be updated as I read throughout the week)

I’ve been very busy over the last few weeks adding TONS of new pre-made eCommerce shoppe templates that work with any of our compatible hosting/cart sites (including Shoppe Pro, WAHMshoppes and 8 others!) Here is a small sampling of the new templates we have added:
M2MG (made to match gymboree) themed items have also popped up all over the pixel studio! I’ve added lots of new mouse drawn graphics and background sets that complement and match the newest Gymboree lines!
I have also added several new Top 100 Site packages and options for a cheap and simple way to get your top 100 site up and running! You can choose from several different colors in each pattern!
Please also take a moment to read about our upcoming bundle of joy and the break I’ll be taking when he arrives. You can check our announcements page here.
I’m still trying to rid my beads of these samples that I’ve made so I’ve marked them all down in my store 10%!! Most of these creations are OOAK so get them now before they are gone! Click here to see my Sample Sale!
On June 18 I will be drawing a name from my mailing list subscribers and that lucky person will recieve a FREE pair of fancy hair blings! The winner can choose from any of my designs as shown here! Please scroll down and on the right you’ll see a place to sign up for my mailing list or you can click here!
LOL, okay I’m not turning 50 (not quite 1/2 way 
) but 2 very important things are getting very close to 50 for me! The first is my mailing list has almost 50 members!! WOO HOO!! The second is my eBay feedback score is also nearing 50 so I want to celebrate these two huge milestones by giving away a few things.
Since starting my mailing list in August of 2006 I’ve had members join and a few go but in less than 1 year my list has grown so much. I’m just so excited! As some of you may know when I get excited about something I tend to do crazy things. So what am I gonna do? The 50th person to sign up for my mailing list will get a FREE Pink Memory Wire Custom Name necklace and bracelet set!
Okay…I am only a few feedback points away from 50 and I really really want that dark blue star!! So from now until I get that 50th feedback – any NEW customer will recieve FREE shipping and a FREE surprise gift with their purchase. I’m confident that you will love my jewelry and graphic designs so much that I just know you’ll leave that postive feedback that I need to get to 50! Since graphics (logos and templates) already have free shipping I’m gonna make your gift extra special!
So please look down to the right on this page to sign up for my mailing list and to find my auctions click here!
Thanks for being such great customers!
