Operation Bling for Attention
My last desperate ploy for attention contest was a huge hit! Thank you all so much for taking part. Megan from Velveteen Mind won a beautiful Turquoise Necklace & Earrings set.
I'm up to my old tricks again happy to announce the new contest.
I make beautiful Custom Photo Jewelry, and will start taking commissions to custom make pieces next week. In celebration of my forthcoming online venture, Fussypants Designs, and my own sheer love of photoshopping my favorite blogging mamas.....
Here is the new contest.
What Will I Win?
A beautiful custom made photo necklace!
Do I Have to Have That One?
The winner (you are all winners, Friends of Fussy!) can personalize the necklace any way your heart desires! It can be all sterling silver, or a mix of sterling and Swarovski Crystal, or freshwater pearls.
Nope, if your name is BOSSY, you may want this...
Isn't Stella pretty?
~~~~
If your name is Ree, and you have some punks around, you'll want this...
Aren't they cute?
~~~~
If your name is Christine and you've fought for a new home, you'll want...
Neighborhood watch never went so smooth!
~~~~
If your name is Anne, and you have the hottest hubby evah, you'll want...
Why can't we all be that lucky? (Off-kilter photoshop job. :) Sorry, Anne)
~~~~
If your name is BlondeMom, and you've got your yourself a great hubby, you'll want...
He will suffer through a multitude of injustice for NFL Sunday!
~~~~
If your name is HoneyBell, and you've got this cutie, you'll want...
Aww, a baby bell.
~~~~
If you relish the threadbare, you'll want this...
Awwww, the life of a mom articulate.
~~~~
If your name is Heather, you'll want...
What does a MommyBlogger gotta do, Mike?
~~~~
And, if your name is Jess, and you've inspired all of us to take more pictures and treasure the old memories, you may want...
Thanks for the (Oh, The) Joys & the inspiration, Jess!
How Do I Enter?
Well, I do need attention, I'm a blogger for Pete's sake! Here are your options-
- Add me to your Blogroll. (You know you meant to, right?)
- If you can't take the guilt and hassle of a roll (like me)- give me a shout out on a post. It doesn't have to be about me, just use the word fussypants somehow and hyperlink it!
- Or if you find the idea of having anything to do with my blog on yours, well, just repulsive-just tell me in the comments that you want to be included. Included even though my blog reeks like old cheese! (You may want to leave out unpleasantries!)
See? It's easy! Be sure to let me know you are in the contest with a link to your blog in the comment section. The contest will be up and going until November 25, 2007!
Good Luck!
P.S.-For the Friends of Fussy- I just figured out that mybloglog icon has been out of commission since August. D'oh! So if you think I haven't been visiting- that's why! D'oh!













My shout out post is going up MONDAY!! Those are GORGEOUS!!
I may just have to chuck mah Tiffany's . . . it's all about the Fussy!!
Posted by: Honeybell | October 27, 2007 at 12:54 PM
Wow, those are gorgeous...
FussyPants Rocks....
I may have to do this contest!!!!

You like jewelry making too?! Your designs are beautiful. How do you find the time? seriously!
I've already linked and posted... here's my comment.
Lovin' Fussypants!

ps - your tagline kills me.
Posted by: Mrs. Chicken | October 27, 2007 at 02:27 PM
What does a Mommy have to do?
You have to have a degree in Old English Lit apparently.
Those are so pretty Mrs. Fussypants!

Who IS that hot man in the pink? ;)
Posted by: Jamie (Blonde Mom Blog) | October 27, 2007 at 03:53 PM
Well since I was already going to add you to my blogroll does it still count as my entry to this contest.
Your jewelry is soooo cool!! I don't know if it's too cost-prohibitive, but you should offer one of your items as a prize for NaBloPoMo. There are so many participants, you're sure to get great traffic from it.
Posted by: MammaLoves | October 27, 2007 at 08:45 PM
Is it wrong that I would actually like to have the one of Mike Rowe? I swear I would wear it. That would be hilarious.
For the record, I can vouch that Fussy's fantabulous jewelry is awesome. And you should all enter ASAP because her contests are becoming more and more demanding... all I had to do to win last time was fave her on Technorati. At this rate, you'll have to rename your blog "Fussin' over Fussy" for the next contest.
I kid. I kid. Love Fussy.

Fussy,
Love the blog! Love the jewelry! In the event I don't win, where can I find out about purchase info?
Posted by: Erin | October 28, 2007 at 09:31 AM
I'm a sucker for bling!!!
I just added you to my blog :)
Posted by: FENICLE | October 28, 2007 at 09:44 AM
Hey there,
I've been enjoying reading your blog (found out about you via Maya's Mom) and actually linked to you from my baby & mama review blog (http://www.mamanista.com/2007/10/friday-playgroup-october-26-2007.html) before I knew about your new contest.
You're on my feedreader and when I update my personal mommy blog (http://mamasaga.blogspot.com) you'll go on a blogroll of sorts there, too.
Your jewelry is fabu and I would love to be entered to win. Can't wait to see your store!

Hey Girlfriend! Count me in! A Fussy original - too cool! I've already blogrolled you, and written 2 posts, but I'll write another one this week. Does that earn me anything extra? Oops, I have to remember that I can't earn what is freely given - grace is awesome like that.
Have a blessed day!
Posted by: Heather | October 28, 2007 at 06:47 PM
I don't have a blogroll, BUT IF I DID.
Those are awesome, hack photoshop job and all.

I can tell you that Fussy makes the most beautiful jewelry! I have many, many pieces over flowing my jewelry box. I have a piece for every outfit I own! and that's a lot!!
Posted by: Jen Lyons | October 28, 2007 at 08:49 PM
I have an original, custom-made, beautiful Mrs.Fussypants designer necklace. Lucky enough to get one with a picture of my three children, which Fussy so lovingly made for me. I get compliments ALL of the time about it. Girls and Guys-you WANT one of these. I love mine. (Love you, Fussy!)

Fusspants.........you are a clever one. Please add me to your drawing for one of your off-the-hook necklaces. I don't have a blog...(how could I ever be as clever as you my dear...and plus I just don't have the time).
Keep up the great blogging. I'm trying to unfrump......so keep all that fussy-wisdom coming. It is a shame how I have let myself go. I'll just keep tuning in......down with the frump and up with the fussy!!!

Hi Fussy!
Love, love, love the photo necklaces. Once upon a time I tried to be creative and do a photo bracelet thing-y (too bad it didn't turn out fantastic, like yours...). Please put me in 'the hat.'
You're on my blogroll (I think) and I've linked you before. :)
Posted by: Lee Andersen | October 30, 2007 at 07:13 PM

Okay...I love your blog. I love the name of your blog, the description, and your witty writings. So is that enough a**kissing to add me to the contest? Seriously, you don't have to bribe or beg because your blog rocks. I am fairly new to the blog world, but I am definitely adding you to my favorites list on my blog. You can check out my not as witty blog at http://www.cmkspkchaos.blogspot.com
