I'm alive and kicking!!

How are you, folks?

I've been away from Steemit for more than 2 weeks because adulthood. *sigh. As much as I want to post regularly, life was being a bitch on me lately. However, I was still on the shadows reading, upvoting and resteeming stuff.
So, what do I have for you, today?

Last Wednesday was me and my husband's anniversary. He was very sweet to gift me a corner desk table, which I always wanted. The desk was finally assembled and as I was organizing my craft materials, I was bombarded with a lot of craft materials that was either used once or none at all. My first instinct was to throw them away since I wasn't using them, but I asked my teammates at @steemitachievers if anyone wanted them. Nobody responded but @mermaidvampire gave me a wonderful idea. She recommended I hold a contest and give the lonely craft materials to the winner.

YES, YOU READ THAT RIGHT! I'm holding my first ever contest!!!
This way, I can let go of the lonely craft materials, give them a new home and honestly, to prove to myself that I am not a hoarder. LOL

Behold, "The world is your oyster: Scrapbook Contest" !!
