Wowza.. my blog hit a BIG milestone today… 1,000,000 hits!!!! :) Thanks to everyone who logs on and shares my journey - stamping, gardening, travels, etc.
So……. what should I do to celebrate my 1,000,000 hits?? Leave me a comment with your suggestions for a blog give-away or whatever you think I should do to celebrate!
One million hits! That’s awesome! Love your blog – it’s number one in my favorites list. I can’t think of anything else you could do other than maybe posting 24/7. 😉 That would be cause for celebration for your faithful readers.
POP THE CORK AND HAVE A BIG DRINK OF SOME WONDERFUL CHAMPAGNE!!!
Blog Candy? That’s an obvious choice though…. You could do fun facts that have to do with 1,000,000… like a did you know questionnaire type thing… but that would involve a little research on your part… Have fun with it of course! Congratulations! You are one popular lady! By the way if I haven’t said it before, I love your blog!
That’s awesome, Patty! You deserve to celebrate any way you wish! You are always so helpful and your blog is great! Congratulations!
Hey Patty….have just discovered your blog a couple of weeks ago, and love it! So informative and fun….and so many great ideas. Congratulations on the ONE MILLION hits!!
you give us blog candy each day with your tips and wonderful inspiration…for that I am thankful and appreciative..your sharing of your artistry is enough for me!
Wow, but not surprised. This is an absoultely amazing blog. Thanks for all the update on your trip to Utah. You gave me the sense of being right there. Thanks for all you put in on your blog. Love it, love it!! I’m sure you will come up with some unique way to celebrate the hits.
WOW – 1,000,000 hits – Congratulations! I have to say you have earned to celebrate anyway you like. You give us so many ideas, tips, techniques, and advice. Along with friendship. I am grateful for you and your and generosity – you are a sweetie!
CONGRATS!
i think you should eat some really fine chocolate–dark, of course–and enjoy the moment! thanks for all you share…that’s plenty.
So cool Patty! Congrats!
I think you should hop in your car,with
1 million 3×3 note cards, and drive across the U.S. handing them out to all of us who leave comments on your blog! LOL 😉
Its only right…ROFL!!!!!!!
Have a fabulous 1-mil more!!!
Wow, congrats on 1M hits!
I think a big shot with 1million hits should have BIG SHOT blog candy, but what do I know? 😉
1 million (I don’t even know how many zero’s LOL) hits! WOW! To celebrate, I think you should send a hand stamped card to one winner a day for 12 days – that’s a little over 1,000,000 seconds. (11 days, 13 hours,
46 minutes,40 seconds to be exact). That way, 12 lucky winners can celebrate with you and have a Precious Patty Original (and you make 12 new friends)! Oooh, I hope I win! Congratulations!
Congrats on 1 millions hits. That’s amazing but then again so is everything you share. Just keep sharing like you do that’s enough to keep me coming back.
That’s fantastic! How about one of your fabulous kits for blog candy?
Wow! What a milestone. I love reading your blog everyday. I am often in awe of the wonderful creations you come up with. Congrats on your appointment to the Advisory Board, you definitely deserve it.

Congrats Patty! I’m so proud to be a major contributor to your 1 million hits! I had the same idea as Chelle but I was thinking 10 cards over 10 days. Oooo how cool would that be to have a Patty original!
Patty,
Your blog is so inspirational and creative. I check it every day. For your 1,000,000 blog candy, I suggest giving one of your 12 pocket card organizers with a card in every pocket. I think we could all “Bennett-fit” from an organizer and if it was made by you, it would be so special. Thanks for being there. Karen
Oh Patty, what a month for you! Founder’s, SU Advisory Board and now a million hits. Way to go girl! You need to celebrate for yourself, you share with us everyday. I am just so excited for you. You are truly a class act and an inspiration to us. Congratulations!
Congrats! Dark chocolate dipped strawberries with a bottle of Veuve Cliquot champagne…mmmm.
lindastamps
Wowee! That’s alotta hits! I think you should celebrate with your family since they seem to be so supportive (and even dive and help every now and then!). Congratulations!
Congrats on 1M! Wow that’s a lot of hits. I really enjoy and look forward to your updates daily.
Some of my thoughts are…
Word Game-Where you have a list of words we pick them out and send them to you email and then you pick so many words each day and when someone has all their words cross out then they win.
Trivia questions
I know whatever you do it will be FUN and creative.
One Million?? Oh my word, that’s a reason to celebrate!!
congrats! Thanks for all you share with us, your creations, your beautiful garden and your inspiration! I think we should award YOU with some blog candy!
Elizabeth
Patty

Glenda

Is there possibly a stamp set that SU has sold 1 million of or 1 million dollars worth of and give that away for blog candy.
Whatever you decide to do have fun!
I was so excited that I got to meet you at convention!
Monika Davis
congratulations!!!!!!!!! I’m not sure what to suggest but knowing your style it will be perfect!
Congratulations! I usually don’t comment, but I’m always here perusing and drooling!
CONGRATS Patty, Blog well done!! I know I’ve put quite a few of those hits on myself. You have given us so much already, so many ideas and card samples. And I thank you for every one of them.
Congrats! (Do you ever get tired of people saying that to you?? 🙂 )
Blog Candy – How about you come and stamp with the winner at their house and tell us how you created such a great SU! business?
Congratulations!! A well deserved 1 million hits! A sampler of the latest DS papers and ribbons would be WONDERFUL blog candy! Loved the idea of 12 cards for 12 new friends that has been mentioned earlier too. Blessings! Becky
Wow! What a month you had. Congratulations on all your achievements. This calls for a nice dinner out with some champagne!
Wow! Congratulations on the 1,000,000. I visit almost everyday and really enjoy your blog. Blog candy is always fun when we get to answer a question of some sort. I am sure whatever you decide will be fun.
Congratulations. I am not surprised. You have a wonderful blog and I really look forward to reading it every day. Thanks for sharing all your wonderful designs and SU happenings with us.
WOWEEE! 1 mil! That’s terrific and understandable… U Rock!
I am not amazed that you have reached this milestone… you are so talented and you share! 🙂
How about some of those new hostess sets us average janes don’t know about or don’t have access to PLUS some fabulous stamp pads with re-inkers… Oh, paper would be nice too… I’m thinking Mini Catalog goodies!
Whatever you decide is great!
So get yourself a spa appointment, a little bubbly, some soothing music and RELAX!! Marilyn
Congrats Patty that is so awesome! I would sure like some of those beautiful cards you make. hint hint!
Enjoy your day!
Lisa

Congratulations Patty!!!!
You could give away one of your special 3-d items such as the “card organizers”, “pull out albums”, “bracelets” and any of your special projects. They are all wonderful and anyone would be tickled to get one. Thanks for sharing so much with us.
Your work is so beautiful, and your SU success so inspiring (I have been a demo for less than a year and was at convention for the first time this summer), I think that the celebration should be US giving you something. I subscribe to this blog and look forward to the entries, and would love to thank you in some way for your generosity. Maybe we all should be sending YOU blog candy!
Eileen,
NYC
congrats on soooo many hits! awesome:)
~**Wahoo!!**~**YOU “GROW” GIRL!**~
You need to plant another rosebush…maybe the All-American winner for 2008. That’s how my mum celebrates. Last time my kids counted Granny’s rosebushes there were a whopping 42!
You are a blessing…CONGRATULATIONS PATTY!
Our choice of any stampset from the SU catalog!!!!!!! Think big I always say!

Congratulations!!!!!!
You are an amazing and creative person and your blog is a great way to share your talents! How about offering a Patty Bennett exclusive… like one of your bracelets?
I’m not surprised at all that you’ve hit that milestone! You are very talented and have a huge following! 🙂 I love Chelle’s idea – how fun! Congrats on all your accomplishments this year!
WOOHOO Patty!!! Of course I’m not surprised – your blog is one of my favorites and always so inspiring!! I’m sure you’ll come up with a great blog candy giveaway even though it is reward enough just visiting your site!
Congrats!!! Way to go..one million hits!! Though I’m not surprised with everything you share with us everyday and all the people who look forward to seeing what you will do next. You must do something to celebrate with your family as they are so supportve of you. As for the rest of us….we benefit or Bennett-fit (ha-ha) everyday!!!!!
awesome!! congrats!! have your family take you out to dinner to celebrate!
How about a BS die (SU exclusive) anyone who didn’t have one would perhaps be inclined to get one and those of us who do….would be happy they got a die from Patty Bennett for 1,000,000 hits!
🙂
Congrats o the million hits! That’s amazing!! Not surprising though as your blog is wonderful. You should celebrate with red wine (at least that’s what I’d do!! 🙂 and blog candy…hummmm…something homemade from you would be such a nice treat!
Take care and congrats again!!
Patty, anything would be great! It’s gotta be something BIG though, don’t you think? I mean, A MILLION blog hits??!!! Yikes!

Your caring and sharing is what makes us all come back for more. Love all your family photos, SU trips and pictures of your beautiful flowers. Your blog is an inspiration and I hope you get a million more hits.
It’s a daily ritual to read your blog! But, especially nice to *brag* to my Canadian group, ‘when you struted you stuff’ across the Convention Stage…numerous times..

WOW! CONGRATS ON ALLLLL THOSE HITS!!!! YES I AGREE TO CELEBRATE BY GIVING AWAY SOME OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL CARDS YOU HAVE CREATED!!! HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!!!! ~HEIDI

I think you should have lunch with friends at RTP then GET BACK TO WORK!!! LOL love ya, sharon and ellen
Wow! Congratulations!! I must say I am not surprized, since I visit every day at least once and sometimes more. I enjoy all your projects and count on your archives for even more creative ideas. Keep up the great work.
YAY!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!! In celebration of your One Million Hits, I think you should just keep on doin’ what you’re doin’ ’cause it seems to be working really well. I’m thinking of starting a Patty Stamps Fan Club…..ok, that’s kind of stalkerish, but seriously…..you are such an inspiration and such a giving/sharing person that you DESERVE a FAN CLUB!!!!
Best Wishes for (at least) a MILLION MORE!!!
Melanie Evans
I think you should give yourself a big pat on the back, and do something for yourself. You and your hard work are the reason we flock to your blog!
Maybe someone who is proficient in digi design could make a beautiful emblem/design denoting the 1 million mark that you can proudly display on the front page of your blog!
Thanks for sharing with us! Jamie
Wow…that is totally amazing. I think you should sit back, relax, and sip a glass of wine! (if you like wine…I’d rather have a latte)
One million…if only you had a penny per hit! 🙂
I think we’re all happy to get ideas and inspiration from your blog…no prizes necessary!
Wow..that’s a whole lotta hits !
Celebrate however you like!
congratulations! It’s just amazing!
Congrats on the 1 million hits! I love looking at your site – your smiling personality shines through (at least what I think is your smiling personality)!
GeryB
WOW!!!! Congratualtions on such an achievement- 1,000,000 is nothing to sneeze at!
I think you should celebrate by snuggling up with your Stampin Up catalog and ordering one of each product for yourself! You are so deserving. Thank you for all of your wonderful shared cards and helpful tips.
Patty
Congrats on 1 million hits!!!!
I visit your blog everyday just to see if there is anything new there…as far as blog candy I agree with Elizabeth, we should be awarding you with some blog candy…for all your inspiration and creations….but whatever you do decide I think we all will be happy with it…
Deb
Thanks for sharing your wonderful, creative inspiration! I would love to see your “Top 10” list of your favorite projects
Hi Patty –
I love your blog and all the wonderful ideas you share with all of us. I think you should kick back an enjoy all that you have accomplished! As for a post to celebrate, you could have a top 10 list of things you have learned, or advice you could give after a 1,000,000 hits. Congratualtions!
I think you should celebrate with Wine and Chocolate! LOL, that’s how I would celebrate. But if you really want to give something away, I think anyone who frequents your blog would appreciate a handmade gift from you! I know I would. congratulations on your Million Hits!
Congrats, Patty! What I’m wondering is how you’re going to have time to read through the 3,000 comments you’re going to get on this!?! LOL Thanks so much for your daily inspirations – from you AND your downline (because sometimes you share their inspiring projects as well!)! Maybe you should ask your readers to help out the Ronald McDonald House in some way – manpower, contributions, etc. instead of blog candy?
What a milestone! I read your blog everyday. Thanks for all the wonderful new ideas!
Congrats!!! You did great!! You’re the 1st blog that I checked everyday. Thanks for sharing all you ideas, inspirations, and talents with us.
WOW! Fabulous Patty. I love your blog and think you do some amazing work. Congratulations on your 1 million hits!!! That is a super accomplishment. Thanks for sharing all of your wonderful creations and projects. Blog candy ideas, well I really liked those DP sample rings you made…that would be a great one I think. Can’t wait to see more, let’s get busy on the next 1 million!!!!
Wow, 1 million hits. Incredible, but not surprising. You have a wonderful “blog”. Thanks for keeping us fellow demonstrators inspired. Cheryl
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!Blog candy or one of your special projects would be wonderful. I have signed up and get your blog daily. I have been a SU fan for ten years, I have out lived 2 demonstrators! Each time I have found a new club to join it has been a wonderful journey.
I am a subscriber and have followed you for some time. I really enjoyed your recent posts about Founders Circle and your Advisory Board. Just keep sharing your amazing artwork and talents with all of us! Congrats on all the hits–now as for blog candy–maybe a free pick from the SU catty to include a set, 1 spool of ribbon and 1 package of designer paper! Darlene
Congratulations Patty!!! WOW you have had an awesome week or so!! I’m with everyone else, you should be the one celebrating with your family for your accomplishments Whatever you decide will be wonderful, I’m sure.
Congratulations Patty!!! WOW you have had an awesome week or so!! I’m with everyone else, you should be the one celebrating with your family for your accomplishments Whatever you decide will be wonderful, I’m sure.
Congratulations Patty! One million hits should tell you that we appreciate your efforts and inspirational posts; this sharing of yourself is phenomenal. I am thankful that you take the time to share your creative expression with us. So, my thought is that you should take time to celebrate yourself with something totaling a million; it could be tangible (that would be a lot of something) or intangible (like time). Then we could hear all about it as you begin your way to the next million hits! Thanks for your inspiration, Patty.
Karen
HAVE A BLOG PARTY!! YIIIPPPEE…. Congrats on the million WOW!!! and you are an awesome upline I bet your downline is going to sooo flip when she sees her special gift from you 🙂 SO sweet!
Congratulations!!! Some blog candy of something that you made would be great. Love all your ideas and the fact that you share them with us..Thanks!
Just found your blog a month or so ago and I just love it! I love all your cards that you make. It is one of my first stops of the day.
I’m not surprised you have hit 1,000,000 hits since you have an AMAZING blog. I have yours bookmarked & check it everyday, thank you so much for sharing your awesome talent with us. I like the card idea that several gals have had as blog candy.
Patti, Congrats on your 1 million hits!!! I think you should take some time to “Stamp for Fun”. I find that as a fellow SU demo, I am always giving & doing for others & seldom take time to stamp something just for the fun of it, or just ’cause I love it! You are amazing! Keep up the great work!
WOWZERS….how GINORMOUSILY huge is that!! Your blog is awesome and your talent is phenominal….so full of creative ideas. What a reason to celebrate doing whatever you like doing in your “down-time”!!!! (Is there such a thing this day in age???) Just have a dandy time!!!
Wow – this is great. Knowing the number of times I personally visit your blog, it isn’t surprising that you hit a million.
Congrats!!
A celebration give away would be great – and I want to let you know that I have enjoyed your continual giving/sharing each week. Thanks.
Congratulations on this great milestone! Of course I am not surprised because your blog is so wonderful. I think whatever makes you happy would be a wonderful way to celebrate. We all benefit from your ideas and your tutorials so we are already all winners!
Wow, Patty 1 million hits. That is incredible, congratulations!
Lynn
congrats on such a milestone!! i say keep doing what you are doing!! i enjoy reading your blog and seeing what you create. the fact that you share your talent and ideas is such a wonderful gift!!
I think you should make a post with your
top 10: techniques
sketches
colors (paper/ink/ribbon, etc)
Congratulations on an amazing accomplishment. For all those hits, you’ve produced some amazing artwork, and you do it so consistently…
Maybe we should send YOU the blog candy this time!!
Thank you for all the inspiration you so generously give. That’s why we all keep coming back.
You have one of the best blogs out there. I check you out everyday and have never been disappointed in anything that I have seen. Thanks for all your sharing.
How about some stamped images of that pretty new stamp set you’ve recently received in Utah? ;P Lol!
Congrats on reaching that mark – there’s obviously a lot of us who enjoy reading your blog very much!
Cindy
Just anything your little heart desires would make a fantastic blog candy treat — you have such talent, I know you’ll come up with something wonderful. Congrats on 1 million!!!
Patty, CONGRATULATIONS! – maybe a current hostess set or the DP in the hostess section!
Sandy Kay
It’s obvious why you’ve reached such a milestone. You make us want to come back again and again. You’re the one with the great imagination, so whatever you come up with as a way to celebrate and commemorate your achievement is OK by me. Congrats and keep the good ideas coming. I depend on them!
I came across your blog from blog hopping! I love all your ideas with the new Big Shot dies!!
Congratulations!!!! Here’s to 1 Milliom more! – Marie
