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.  ๐Ÿ™‚

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

  6. My DH had an ultrasound and some chest X-rays last week and he got the result yesterday(thursday). Everything was fine. He had a pain on his chest (not his heart) and the doctor couldn’t find anything. My DH had his pancreas removed because of a tumor 3 1/2 years ago and gets suspicious when he feels something that he shouldn’t feel.
    And the weather is fine here. Makes a change.

    Super cute stamps!

    I got to go on a walk around the neighborhood with my boys and hubby. It’s such a nice way to escape from the house (computers, tvs, etc.) and just enjoy each other’s company. =)
