Looky, looky what I got from Kaye Swain of SandwichINK:

Encouraging. Inspiring. Awesome. Thanks, Kaye!
These appreciation “awards” are given by one blogger to another to encourage and support one another in the honorable manner of paying it forward. There are a few rules, which I’ve simplified:
Say thank you.
Provide a link back to the giver’s site.
Follow his or her blog and mention it!
Pass the awards on to others.
Simon Leong, self-described “passionate food blogger and international cuisine lover” researched and wrote about the origin of the Kreative Blogger award. While appreciative of the award, he mentioned its likeness to a chain letter. Now I really dislike chain letters, but I also really like to feel appreciated, so I chose to receive it with glee and pay it forward.
I’m conferring upon the following bloggers the Kreative Blogger award:
1. Bonnie Gray of Faith Barista for her insightful, uplifting, love-filled writing.
2. Nikole Hahn of The Hahn Hunting Lodge for her passionate prose that digs deep into the human heart.
3. Kathy Howard of Kathy Howard: Unshakeable Faith For LIfe because, whether walking or talking, she is always, always in the Word.
4. Sheila Wray Gregoire of Sheila Wray Gregoire: Speaker, Author, Mom for her courage and integrity in discussing the difficult issues of love, marriage, and family.
5. Melinda Todd of Trailing After God for her humor-tinged, down-to-earth wisdom and huge heart after God.
6. Elaine W. Miller of Splashes Of Serenity who spreads the fragrance of Christ wherever she goes, in word and deed.
7. Patricia Hunter of Pollywog Creek for her grace and kindness to the people and the world God created as seen through the lens of her camera’s eye.
CONGRATULATIONS!
