Happy New Year!

I came across a cute blog I'd like to share with you all.
Its called Kind Over Matter.

About the blog:
Kindness is all that matters.

Have you ever left something beautiful for a stranger to find, have you ever found something beautiful yourself?

We want to see it.

Focusing heavily on the handmade community, our blog is dedicated to Kind Acts, Inspirational Art & Kind Projects.

Feel Good Nouns.

Don't forget to enter our weekly giveaway & check out our freebies!

Please visit our links & sponsors for additional inspiration.

Join our Flickr group, E-mail us your photos or blog links featuring kind projects we can post, by using the buttons below.

We are also open to holding giveaways featuring beautiful & positive art, e-mail us!
I found this Free Printable Goals & Resolutions guides and it has inspired me. So I am going to pick one and use it. I may even stick it in my scrapbook for this year.

I also love the Card Drops that I think would feel amazing to find one, so I may start it up by leaving one in my area.

Hope you have a Happy and Productive 2010!!!

This is such a wonderful site! Its got great colors and neat organization. That doesn't even BEGIN to describe the CONTENT!

Creative Bloggers Wanted

Creative Team Call

We are currently searching for three Creative Team Members who love to blog {and do so regularly} and are always looking for new, fun, and fresh blogs to review. If you feel you have a niche for blogging and finding other awesome blogs to share, then consider joining our team.

As a creative team member, you will be required to:

• Post a featured blog once a week. {Everyone will get a specific day}
• Blog and/or Facebook about new features linking back to ablogtobehold.blogspot.com.
• Submit at least 3 blogs a week to the FF {future featured) file. (just submitting the links to me, not actually blogging them all}

Being a team member requires some blog hopping and jumping around. We are not submitting our girlfriends' and grandmothers' blogs, although I am sure they are all great! We are looking specifically for blogs that are:

• well organized and can easily be navigated through
• visually pleasing to look at and make you say,
"OMG! How cute!?" or "I LOVE this!"
• The content must be savvy and current

We're not looking necessarily for the "how to" blog, just ones that give amazing tips or info and look good doing it. We are looking for blogs that make you want to do a mass forward to your girlfriends to say, "Seriously, check this out!".

A couple of my favorites that I think fall in to this category and are noteworthy are: www.kellyskornerblog.com & hersoutherncharm.blogspot.com. Look them over and review the blogs on ablogtobehold.blogspot.com to get an idea of what you are looking for.


What do Creative Team Members get:
• A special feature spot on ablogtobehold.blogspot.com
• A 150 x 150 ad spot or grab button on the blog for as long as you are a team member
• Your lovely mug shot featured on the blog as long as you are a team member
• A link to your blog from ohmygluestick.blogspot.com
• The opportunity to show off your blogging skills

To apply for our Creative Team, please send the following information to:
ohmygluestick@yahoo.com
• Name
• A link to your Blog
• A link to your website {if you have one}
• A link to three of your best and/or favorite posts
• Explain why you would be a great CT member and why you want to become one

The deadline for CTM submissions is August 11th.

Ann Again....And Again



Have you joined a "virtual girls night out"? Me neither! But, we can at Ann Again....And Again's blog! I seriously love this idea. I especially love the fact that there are other mommies out there that do not like to leave their kiddos with just anyone to get a night out. I love going out with my girlfriends on occasion when my husband can be with the kids, but I love my online girlfriends too and don't want to miss the chance to "hang out" with them!

Ann even gives us yummy recipes for cocktails to ingest while enjoying our virtual girl's night out. If that isn't enough, she offers up neat little giveaways! Now, who can beat all that? A place to hang out, cocktails, and free stuff...I'm in! See you all Friday!
