Who is the next CRUMPET STRUMPET?

It's time to announce the winners of the 100th post giveaway. I was really trying to find a fun and exciting way to choose who got the prizes. It was beginning to wig me out just a bit. I didn't have a clue what to do besides just drawing the names out of a hat. But then my trusty Side kick came to my rescue.........





I actually liked Crumpet's idea! I decided to replace the names of all the hot neighbor dogs with the names of everyone who entered. Good thing Crumpet's wheel is BIG because there were a ton of names!



Once the process was finished it was time to get this show on the road..........









I sure hope this works...we've never used the video portion of our camera before. #1 prize package goes to..........





And the #2 Prize package..................






So congrats ladies......just email me your addresses and I'll get those prizes in the mail. Thanks to everyone who stopped by and left a comment. We'll be doing this again sometime soon!

Cute idea for the wheel.

Twice as Nice said...

Talk about trick photography. I saw how it landed on Twice as Nice and then his paw quickly spun it one more time. Sure, let's try to keep the game honest. And to get the dogs involved how low!!LOL

Congrats to the winners and that wheel took some time to make! Genius.

nikkicrumpet said...

SHEEESH Justeeeeen...I comment moderate so nobody is dropping bit old "F" bombs in my comments....then you drop one and I can't moderate you because you won....YA BIG DOPE! For those who can't see the video...sorry not sure what is happening. The winners were Bridget from My silly blog...and Justeeeen (the potty mouth) from Froggy bloggy!

Justine said...

I'm sorry! So sorry! I just got carried away in my Crumpie excitement! Okay, so I'm not that sorry! Heeheehee

Justine :o )

Lynette said...

Nikki - you're a genius and congrats to the winners.

Here's to the next 100!!

Bridget said...

LOL I watched video two and was congratulation Justine. I had no idea I won prize number one! What the heck did I win? I'm old, I can't remember entering the drawing!!! I've never been so excited to be called a strumpet before.
Okay I read Justine's comment about the rooster and that jogged my old feeble brain. I win the bird box (perfect for my bird themed bathroom) and the bling-bling pedestal. I love bling bling!!!
Thank you Crumpet. I'm honored to be your number one Strumpet! I'll email my address to your crazy mommy right away.
Kiss kiss, Bridget

Bridget said...

P.S. You've really kicked up the prize selection process a BIG notch. How are the rest of us going to live up to this?

French Fancy... said...

Nikki, what was the original wheel used for - Crumpets Strumpets???????

How do you find the time and ingenuity for all this? You should really have become a blog of note by now - I'm going to propose you. If enough of the others do I'm sure we can make you even more famous.

Jan said...

That wheel was alot of work. But so much better than random.org.

You are so creative and fun. I was expecting a dog paw to squelch the action. But they were good dogs.

Congrats to the winners.

Unknown said...

Nikki! Wow!! You left a comment about my trampoline methods in choosing a winner but this one takes the cake!! That wheel rules - you should use it everytime and actually you should manufacture it and sell it to other bloggers who are tired of random.org.

It's a lot of work to write those names but it was WELL WORTH IT!!

Nice video work.

The Blonde Duck said...

That's so cute! You put so much work into that!

Beth at Aunties said...

A spinning wheel! How creative! And time consuming. I am impressed. And suddenly feeling very uncreative and lazy.

amelia bedelia said...

Nice Wheel Vanna! And I so didn't put that voice with you...I thought you would have a high pitched squeeky sound!

jill jill bo bill said...

It was rigged. I never saw my name on there. Actually, I thought we agreed it would be on there 86 times. Remember? What are you saying? fine. congrats to jutin and brigadeer. whoever.


You are so lucky you are moderating these now. I am dropping the F bomb all over the place. Inside. Where it counts.

And what the heck? How long did that extravagant wheel take you to make? Your voice is so cute. You must call me sometime to chat. I swear I won't cuss. much.

Phyllis said...

Crumpet must think he's such a stud with a wheel that can hold so many names! :)

I could see the first video but not the second. I'm assuming I didn't win :(

Very funny though...and your pooches are soooo tolerant of you!
