I have given this decision much thought and consideration...but due to so much going on in my life at this time...I have decided to give up my Win A Free Card blog at this time... I am hoping that in the future I will get to begin it again.... maybe God is just sending me in a different direction at this time.
I will however keep my regular card blog and plan on posting there on a regular basis...Please visit me there by clicking
Here.
A special Thank You to all who have supported me in this for the last 100 week... I have so enjoyed mailing my cards literally all over the world... hugs to each and every one of you.

I'm glad that God has given you the gift to create a new card .. almost every day ... and inspire us all.
Many thanks,

OH Jeannie,
I know that this was a very difficult decision. Let me one of your followers to tell you "Thank you" for the last 100 weeks. I am sure that for those that had the chance to win your card it was such a gift. As for me I enjoyed entering each week in hopes of winning a card. I admire your work as I am sure that I am one of many. Absolutely family comes first and hope that soon you will be able to come back to this blog. Thank you so much for the chance to win every week for since I have started entering.
Many hugs!!!!!!!!

I will always treasure my Raggedy Ann card although she now lives at my SILs house ..she needed her more than me after she had part of her foot amputated. Thanks for bringing her a smile!
I have never signed up for one of your cards but I sure enjoy your cards and your blog. It has been a very sweet thing fot you to do. I hope whatever is going on in your life now will be okay. You are a true inspiration to many!
Oh no! I am going to miss seeing your beautiful cards every week for the giveaway...so at least please don't stop crafting them! You are amazingly talented. I appreciate the opportunity you gave me as a spotlight once on your blog. I respect your decision and wish you the best!
We will miss our generous give away. I was not a weekly entrant but I did enter whenever I remembered Thanks again for sharing your talent with all of us.
Jeannie! I understand your decision and trust that you know that what you said is true...God IS telling you to take a break and focus on those things you need to focus on. You are an AMAZING inspiration and have more talent in your pinky then I have in my whole body. Take care of you and your loved ones, and come back when this season of your life passes! You will be missed!
Jeannie,
We will miss your cards so, God has given you such a spectacular, singular talent! But, one must always trust in the decisions the Lord makes for us, and if he is sending you another direction, it is for a purpose, so walk with confidence in that direction!
Never stop crafting, at least for yourself --
I hope you still share cards with us on the MB when you can.
God Bless,
Alyssa

Hi Jeannie,
I will miss this blog but completely support your decision to focus on the other directions God has in mind for you. You are an amazing woman and I always look forward to seeing your latest creations!
Hi Jeannie, I never entered, but that was very thoughtful for you to give a card away. Your work is beautiful!
Jeannie, this is indeed sad news. I am one of many who is privileged to have recieved a "Jeannie original" and I treasure it. It is sat on top of my computer monitor as I type. Your talent is amazing and your generosity shines like a beacon.
May god bless you in whatever direction He is taking you now. Whatever that is be sure it is good (Romans 8:28)

OMG no chance to get a real Jeannie card, What a sad day indeed. I hope you keep posting your cards because I just wonder at each and every one!!! Thanks for the opportunity to try to win a card and Congrats to those who have won ! I envy you all !
Love ya Jeannie !
As hard as it was for you to make this decision, I'm sure that God has chosen for you to start a new chapter in your life that will take where you need to go most. I know you will do it well, cuz that's how you do things. OR, maybe you just need to recharge your creative batteries a little in the mean time with a little less on your plate. I know you will still amaze us with your creations & I will continue to look forward to those.
God Bless & take care!
Looking forward to seeing all your creations on your other blog...
Hugs to you!!!
I know you will be missed, I love seeing what you create next..I will be visiting your other blog and hope that this one will be back....god bless you.
It is like getting a card from you when I follow your directions on your A Place For My Cards blog. I have made some beautiful cards following your example. So THANK YOU. You have been and are an inspiration to me.

Military pilot who had sex with an 11 year old boy when he was 17!!!
A JUNIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL WHO HAD SEX WITH AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENT!!! He needs to be on a sexual preditor list.
And how long did he masterbate and think about having sex with boys? In boot camp? Into his flight training?
"This person's disturbed." In fact.
You should have seen what he did to his younger brothers from age 5-8.
His peers have interesting things to say about him as well.
Okay, this is really sad news. :(

Nice Post & International Standard also. From E2solar
I'm impressed, I have to say. Really hardly ever do I encounter a blog that's both educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you might have hit the nail on the head. Your thought is excellent; the difficulty is something that not sufficient individuals are speaking intelligently about. I am very comfortable that I stumbled across this in my search for something relating to this...Cardsharing Server
