Link Up Love Party! Prize too! *Updated* with Code!

Hi all my sweet friends and readers! Yes it's time for my monthly Link Up the Love Party! Last month's party was fun, but wild! I had to put in a few guidelines and rules this time, so it's enjoyable for ALL! It's a great way to find new blogs, share your blog, and encourage the love all over blog land!

Link Up Love Party: How it Works

*Link Up Party runs from Tuesday 5/17 to Tuesday 5/24. Winners announced 5/25
*Grab my blinkie and post on your blog
*Be a follower of this blog
*Create a new blog post that is titled Link Up Love Party with K Andrew. In your post, you must mention that the link up love party is a way to get to know each other and find new blog inspiration, mention my blog, with a link back to my blog .
*Post your favorite project that you've done in your blog post
*Copy and paste the link up code into your blog post so the Inlinkz will show up on your blog
*Spread the word so everyone can join in!
*You must visit, follow, and comment on the 5 people before you AND the 5 people after you in the Inlinkz. It would be fantastic if you would visit as many as you can--maybe everyone? If you are one of the first 5 then you will need to blog the ones before you and a few more after--as long as it's a minimum of 10 near you in the link up tool/gadget)
If you do not do the above your link will be deleted, because it's just not fair to those who work so hard linking up and showing love to the ones on the list. I have a moderator who will be checking this out to keep it awesome and fun!


Link Up Party: Giveaway! A FULL year subscription to the best scrappy magazine out there: Creating Keepsakes for TWO lucky followers who Link up and play correctly. Winner will be announced May 25'th so make sure you come back to see if you won!!!! Remember, if you dont' claim your prize within ONE week, it goes back in to the pot!

HERE is the CODE (Just copy and paste it into the body of your blog post at the end)
get the InLinkz code

Okay here is my favorite project. I love using antique photos in my mixed media projects and pairing them up with  humorous quotes and witty sentiments. This one I made about 5 years ago! I bet you guys didn't know I did mixed media too? I rarely blog it, but I certainly do! lol!

  6. I'm not sure I get the "*Copy and paste the link up code into your blog post so the Inlinkz will show up on your blog". Does this mean I have to have "link tool" on my blog too! Not following this one. Guess I should look at what the others did.

  8. Yay another link up party! I am so glad to be a part of it. How do you get the code to put the inlinkz tool on your blog post? That is the only part I couldn't figure out! =) Don't remember how I got the code last time. Thanks for hosting this great Link Up Love Party. I can't wait to go check out some blogs!

  27. Krystal,
    i think that Blogger is acting up again. I placed the link code on my blog and it came up as jibberish..lol. i just got an email too letting me know that someone was trying to become a new follower on my blog and that the follow button is not showing. I will try the link up code again tomorrow.
