Giveaways and a share…

Hey, everyone.

I have a share and some giveaways.

First, the share.  I did a ton of these with scraps this weekend at the retreat.  I just like to have little things like this on-hand to throw in packages I send out.  (The post office man knows me well.  :)  I just colored them with pencils and then used a clear glitter pen over them for a bit of shine. 

092508 BIrds
Supplies:
Hero Arts stamps (birds and greeting)
Hero Arts tiny clear gems, colored black with a permanent pen for eyes
Copic Glitter Pen
Creative Impressions Silk Ribbon
Black Memories Ink
Colored Pencils and Gamsol
Paper Shaper Punches

Now… for the fun part!  April over at Studio Calico generously sent me some extra stamps to giveaway.  They are so kind over there – I highly recommend you check them out.  The sneak peek of their October kit has me drooling.  I will be getting it for sure.  And the guest designer is none other than one of my favorites – Leslie Lightfoot.  Woohoo!

So, I have these three clear stamps.  I will pick three winners – each will get one stamp.  (Gotta spread the love around a bit.)  Just leave a comment here by tomorrow (Friday the 26th) at 11:59pmEDT.  In your comment, tell me something good that happened to you today.

Prize

Thanks again to Studio Calico.

Oh, and the good thing that happened to me today: I taught a class at my local store.  I just love doing that.

Night!

(BTW: Thanks for the House link.  You all rock.  Lipstick Jungle caught me off guard, too!  Just as long as they keep good ol' Kirby around, I will be happy.  🙂

ETA: Did you all see this good news?  Jason is the next Bachelor!  Simple pleasures. Hee.

    A good thing that happened today? Well today was the 1 year anniversary of my Dad’s passing to join my Mom in Heaven. It has been a tough year – I missed them both a lot. Fortunately today, I had my family’s support – my daughter and my son both called – and my very nice husband took me out to dinner.

    And I got to watch the return of Grey’s anatomy tonight – yeah!

    I took my kids (ages 2 and 4)to the pet store and we bought two goldfish! (They were so excited!) Wonderful giveaway!

  32. Donna says:

    Neat stamps, it was very nice of them to let you share them with us.

    My good thing for today is that I have a really tough boss, at times you wonder if he knows I exist. I greet him each morning with a smile and “good morning” and get a grumbled response. I turned in a rather large project yesterday. He returned the project personally to my office requesting a few changes (usually his secretary distributes his things) and as he left my office he said, “good job.” It was nice to be recognized.

  44. Dasje says:

    The smile on my son’s face and the twinkling in his eyes when he said: “I love you so much, mummy!” Followed by a kiss with the sound: ‘mmmmmmpppp.’ Sam is three and making a lot of my days sunnier, especially when he’s wrapping me round his little finger 😉

    Bye, Diane

  47. Patty W says:

    Hi Jennifer! I love the birdie tags – they are very cute!

    One good thing that happened to me today was that my baby girl played in her booster chair after her dinner for half an hour so that my sister, my sister in law, my hubby and I could actually sit down and have a bite to eat peacefully all at the same time!

    Thanks for the giveaway!

  48. elana says:
