I would guess you´re 36 at the most. Anyway, what a generous birthday candy, who wouldn´t want to win that?! So I love to join in.

ReplyDeleteHugs
Hi my special friend!! Not gonna reveal your age lol!! How generous are you? Please may I go into the draw for your yummy candy. Thanks for the wonderful opportunity, let's just hope hubby org or kiddy org are kind to me hehe. Lotsa luv xxxx
ReplyDeleteLove your candy Paola, much more my kinda thing than the dreadful stamps I have on offer!
ReplyDeleteI am terrible at guessing ages, I do offend but unintentionally. Here goes nothing......I've read the other comments, but you don't look in your 40's to me so I'll say 36 and hope you don't cyber-slap me!
Love Elaine xx
Paola, I am a follower and I Love your blog, I think you look really young! Lets see I am going to say 38. Thanks for letting me play!
ReplyDeleteYou are gorgeous... hard to guess an age... but you said you want to spend more time with your adult children... I am 37 so I am going to guess luck 37! Thanks for an exciting and fun birthday give away!
ReplyDeleteYou probably look younger than you are so my guess will 40!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday!
All I can do is tell you that I enjoy your blog and that I'm absolutely HORRIBLE at ages, so the best that I could possibly do would be say that you are in your 30's. I guess we'll all find out when you tell us! Whatever it is Happy Advance Birthday!
ReplyDeleteR/
Hey Paola, I reckon you're going be be 44 ;-) Looking forward to seeing you on the 2nd! Loving all your cards, you are still such an inspiration to me!! Thanks, Dale xx

Happy Birthday Paola! They say that one is as old as you feel !! You look like you feeling 28 !!! :-) I'm guessing you are 43. Have a beautiful day !!Thanks for the chance to win some candy!
ReplyDeleteYowzers Paola. That's a brave step. What if someone guessed horribly older? I have no idea how old you're going to be, and I'm lousy at guessing. But my guess is 42 (don't hit me)... but you look much younger! In any case, I hope you will be celebrating your birthday in style.
ReplyDeleteWow great candy, thanks for the chance to win.I guess you are 41.
ReplyDeleteGreetings Anneke
Happy Birthday to You!!! (December babies are the "coolest" ha ha! Mine is the 27th of December!). As for your age...hmmm...you said you closed shop to be closer to growing children...so I'm going to overshoot it and say 43. You don't LOOK 43 (you look younger than I do and I'm going to be 29 AGAIN this year!!! I'm just going off the expression "growing children"). Thanks for the chance! And, again, have a wonderful birthday!
ReplyDeleteRene :D
Happy Birthday from one December baby to another! Mine is the 24th-yuck! I'm gonna guess 44, although you look 34! You're really mean to do that, you know! I'm 29 again - ha ha ha. Thanks for a chance to win again and I hope you're day is as special as you are!
ReplyDeleteHugs - Jen
Hi Paola
ReplyDeletethanks for entering my blog candy. Now i am entering yours! Great goodies on offer.
As to your age I have no idea!I am 50 next month you are way younger than me! I think I will say 41
hugs sarah x
Hi Paola....wishing you a very Happy Birthday! I totally hate guessing someone's age....not good at it. You look incredibly YOUNG, but you have a son about to be married and children are getting married later in life than they used to. Taking this into consideration, I would guess that your son is about 25 and if you had him at the same age, then it could be 50?????????
ReplyDeleteDON'T HATE ME....YOU LOOK LIKE YOU ARE 30!!!!!
Happy Birthday, Paola! What a fun candy, and I just love trying to guess your age. I think you must be older than you look, but what to guess...hmmm...I will go with 43.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the chance to win your awesome candy.
*smiles*

Happay Birthday Paola, hope it will be a stunning day!!!

Thanks for the chance to win some lovely goodies and i know how stunning yours is................lol
Enjoy every moments...........lotsa luv Theresa
Hi Paola!
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely useless at guessing ages.
You look gorgeous in your photo. You look 30 but I am saying you are 55.
Hugs Maz
Happy Birthday (in advance) Paola - With the energy of a 15 year old and the talent and experience of a 90 year old - I would say you're 21 plus some change! (somewhere in the range of twenty-one, twenty-two ... skip a few ... one hundred)? am I right? Lots of love to you, awesome girl, Jen
ReplyDeletehappy birthday babe,
ReplyDeleteim guessing your a gorgeous 21 year old,and if your not ,and your a little older then you totally rock!!!

Hi Paola
ReplyDeleteIt's really hard to guess your age. You look young so I'll say 35. I wish you a happy birthday for the 15th of december. May your day be filled with love, joy and surprises. Thanks for giving us the opportunity to win this yummy blog candy. I'm already a follower.
Hi Paola, I think you are much older than you look! I would put you at 45 this birthday!!! x Leigh x
ReplyDeletePaola, I would say 29 and counting.... no really, 42. thanks for a chance to win!!!
ReplyDeletehappy almost birthday to you!!! good golly- you look like you're in college! but you mentioned growing children-- this is tough...44 with hugs!
ReplyDeleteHi Paola, an early happy birthday wish. May your day be filled with happines and love. I'm guessing you are a very young 47 turning 48 years old. Not at all because you look it, only because I had fun reading your blog from the beginning (I have never done that before) and learnt so much about you. Wow I would never say you were old enough to have a son that got engaged. Thanks for the opportunity to win the amazing candy, but mostly thank you for sharing your beautiful creations. hugs engie
ReplyDeleteHi Paola, Oh Boy!! this is a hard one, you look lovely and quite young but looks can be deceiving. I'll take a guess at 41 years young and hope I have not insulted you. Happy Birthday when it arrives.
ReplyDeleteHugs
Suzi x
Happy birthday Paola.
ReplyDeleteI reckon you're 21!
Thanks for the chance of your candy! I'm going to stick my nack out & as I'm oin the midst of celebrating my 50th I'm gonna guess you'll be doing the same!!! %0 is the new 30 so they say & you look about 30 so there you go!!
ReplyDeleteHugs
& Birthday congrats

Beautiful Paola,
ReplyDeleteWhat yummy blog candy to share with some lucky gals! You are so sweet and generous. I thought about bribing some of the gals who know your real age, but I thought they'd probably trick me! LOL *just kidding*
I'm going to say that you are GOING TO BE 21 AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday ahead of time!
XO,
Chris Christensen
Hi Paola thanks for the chance to win your great candy. It is quite scary guessing someone's one but I am going to go with 39. Hope you have an amazing birthday. Sarahxx
ReplyDeleteoh gosh... not sure it's really a good idea to do this comment hehe! But with your eldest son getting married I'm guessing he's over 20... so I'm going with 43...
ReplyDelete♥
Happy 38th Birthday ? Happy Birthday Anyways I think this is one of the toughest questions to ask us lol
ReplyDeletethanks for the chance
hugs Nikki C
WOW Paola - I hope you have AN amazing birthday!!! I for one am GLAD you're still blogging and inspiring us! Now onto your age - that's a tough one - you look like you're only in your 30s from your pic but you have a son you hope will make you a grandmother soon - so I'm gonna say.....47 - my age because I really have NO IDEA - LOL
ReplyDeleteHugs for your birthday whatever one it is!
xXx
ooer. ... some peeps are going to get a slap, and some a huge hug... lol.... Im going to guess at 42.. (think you personally look younger, but... with son of certain age..... lol).... have I dug myself out of a hole yet? rofl... huge hugs... J xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Paola I turned 50 this month so am very concious of age at the moment.
ReplyDeleteAlthough you do look younger I say after a bit of detective work that you are turning 44.
i hope your candy will be a belated birthday gift for me.
xxx
Although you look MUCH younger, Paola, I'd say 46 because you say your eldest son is soon to be married, and I'm assuming you were in your early twenties when he was born. At any rate, Happy Birthday to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday for you ;-) I'll take a guess at 47 years ;-) Thanks for a chance to win your yummy blog candy!

I guess.... 43?!
ReplyDeletecongrats on the blog, I signed up as a new follower:)
I'm a terrible judge of age. You look no older than 36 but if you are about to become a grandmother you are probably more like 46. That's the age I was when I became a grandmother! Warmest wishes, Lesley
ReplyDeleteOMG I am not sure whether this is fun or not....lol.....you definately look younger than you are.I would guess you are 49,as you said you have children that are ready to get married!!! I hope you have a wonderful birthday!!
ReplyDeleteHugs xx
Hi Paola!
ReplyDeleteFound your blog while hopping! Would llove to be in the running for some of that gorgeous candy!
My guess would be 45 years, as you mentioned your eldest is preparing to get married.
Hope you have an awesome day!

Hey lady, are you CRAZY?? I'd be scared to ask people to guess my age - what if they all guessed older than you really are - you could end up feeling suicidal on your big day!!! However, bearing in mind your lovely photo, and the info about your family, I'm going to go for 42.
ReplyDeleteHave a GREAT birthday
Hugs

Paola my girl, you look beautiful... How can someone guess your age? LOL I'm thinking I will go with a nice even number and say.... Hmmmm, 40! It's a year older than me... what do you think??? Could I be right? ha ha... and OF COURSE I want to follow you! Your work is absolutely GORGEOUS! I am always finding inspiration here!
ReplyDeleteBig Big Hugs,

Hi Paola! thanks for the chance! I think you look not a day over 25! *wink* but if I have to guess, I would have to go with the flow and say... 41! have a very very happy birthday!

Hi Paola. Thanks for the chance to win some fun stuff. I would have to say that you are going to be around 42. You don't look like you are any older than say 29ish, but looks are deceiving.... Have a very Happy Birthday.....
ReplyDeletehiya sweetie
ReplyDeletethis is fun, i think you're my age and that's 38, in about 2 months i'll be 39 so i keep it on 38, don't hate me if i'm wrong
thanks for the great chance to win sweetie

I'm gonna guess your gonna be 41 That's how old I was when I was blessed with my first grandchild. If and When it happens you will be blessed it is a wonderful feeling. GAscrappnGramma@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteIm going take a wild guess and say ur about 45.thanks for the chance
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI've been following your blog even before entering blogland myself. Given the fact that you are looking forward for grandchildren ( a desire which normally doesn't come in one's thirties), I'd say you'll be about... 48. Luckily for you, you'll be a very young granny:)) and look even a lot younger than you are!
Hugs to you and enjoy your special day!
iulia from Romania
I just came by to say thank you for the kind words in my blog. I am so happy you find my crafting exiting.
ReplyDeleteSo you have a birthday coming up.
Congratulations to you.
To guess an age is the hard part. You are a grow up and you have a husband and you will become a grandmother soon. Big celebrations to the grandmothership.
It is your eldest son...a...thinking.....
Ill say you are around my age... 42
Now i will take a tripp in your blog.
Hugs
/Maria
I know you and I are almost the same age, even though I look about 20 years older, so my guess is - 51.
ReplyDeleteWell, you look so young but I would guess you are going to be 52. Sorry if I am too much out of line. Thanks a lot for this great candy. I am new to crafting and trying to built up my supplies. Lovely Candy.
ReplyDeleteWhat a Happy birthday you will be having.. I wish you a wonderful day on your 50th birthday (hugs if I was wrong)
