High flying fun and candy!

Spring is in full swing within magical Sweet November land. The flowers are blooming and the air is positively buzzing with the sounds of all the critters returning to full activity after their winter hibernation. It's such a beautiful day that it would be a shame not to visit and meet who is responsible for helping this spring awakening along.

As we make our way through the endless meadow of flowers it is hard to believe that there is anything more amazing to behold. But one glance up at the vast blue sky above tells me that we may be in for a real show. At first everything appears normal but as you watch the puffy white clouds floating by they start to take on all sorts of fantastic shapes. That one there started out looking like a prancing unicorn and is now shifting into a leaping dolphin... we watch in awe as each passing cloud transforms before our eyes but what is behind this magic? Suddenly a brightly colored bu'fly fairy comes swooping down from the clouds and introduces herself as Brooke. Brooke takes great pride in being a master at manipulating clouds and her skills are second to none. She offers to put on a real show for us so sit down and get comfortable! Brooke zooms back up into the sky and now that we know what to watch for it is fantastic to see her quickly twirl and spin around each cloud until it takes on the shape she desires... wow! And after a wonderful afternoon spent watching Brooke's show she continues to delight by offering up some special candy to one lucky crafter. Check it out...   
The Bu'fly Brooke candy kit includes; one Sweet November Bu'fly Brooke rubber stamp set, twelve 6x6 sheets of My Mind's Eye Dwell paper, Prima flowers and Kaiser Craft pearls, ribbon, twine, buttons, punched butterflies, washi tape, four envelopes, four card blanks and my card. 
All you have to do for a chance to win the candy is leave a comment on this post. If you link to the candy on your own blog that is great and much appreciated but not a requirement... I want everyone to be able to play along. And when I say everyone, I mean everyone. I will ship the candy anywhere in the world so everyone is encouraged to play! :)
The candy will stay open through Friday, March 8th and I will announce the winners on Saturday, March 9th.

Don't forget to check out the Sweet November Gal's blog! Nancy has all sorts of high flying fun to share today! :)
Instead of using random generator I will be printing out names and tossing them in a hat SO if you leave comments for the SN gals on their blogs, you will get an extra name in the hat for each one that you do... this will up your chances of winning the candy... fun, fun, fun!

I hope you enjoyed the second day of Sweet November March previews. You won't want to miss who will be fluttering onto the scene tomorrow!

I love these new Bu'fly fairies you've created. It's so wonderful to see how you and Nancy are using totally different colour palettes (soft vs strong) that are working equally well to showcase sweet Brooke.
