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.

    Today I get to see my daughter who is living on campus-she is a freshman and an only child so I am having empty nest syndrome BIG TIME…so anytime I get to wrap my arms around her is a great day:)

  2. Candy says:

    Well, since you posted this on Thursday, the good thing that happened was I got to see my daughter unexpectedly. Hopefully the good thing for today is that I will find what I am going shopping for in just a little while! LOL!!! Love those stamps – will have to check out their kits.

    My daughter had a math test (6th grader taking 7th grade math) on Wednesday. She informs me on Tuesday @ 8 pm that she doesn’t get 30% of the test material. She worked hard for about 1.5 hours and came home yesterday and told me that she got 100% on the test. Yippee!!! That is the great thing that happened to me today!!! Love those Studio Calico stamps!!!

  13. Meredith says:

    My husband is out of town until tomorrow and yesterday I caught the stomach flu and was running a fever. I am so proud of my 9 year old daughter. She got herself up with her alarm clock, got dressed, fixed her breakfast, checked in with her dad when he called and got herself on the bus ON TIME! She even asked me if I needed anything and said she hoped I would feel better today and told me she loved me before she left.
    Oh my gosh, how lucky and grateful am I? I’m making a card today to let her know that.

    something good that happened to me today. Well, since it is still morning time, the only thing so far was that I did not encounter any traffic or accidents on the way to work. I live in a large metropolis, so this kind of event is great!

    Hey Jennifer!!
    One thing that happened good today for me would have to be getting Annastasia to take her nap again. Ugh!! she stayed with our Aunt last week while I was away and totally killed my schedule. Thanks goodness it’s back. Nap time is the best time to work.

  39. Terry says:

    Great giveaway. The best, happy thing that happened to me today is getting to watch my darling little granddaughter for a few hours this morning. Any time with her makes for a good day!

  40. Michelle Liimatainen says:

    I love those tags and I need to get on the ball and make some for Christmas!

    I spent the day with my husband….shopping, having lunch and just enjoying each other. It was wonderful and very needed. Tomorrow we will celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary and it’s going to be an oh so HAPPY one!

  45. Kathy W says:

    The bird tags are adorable. You sure do have the gift of creativity. Thanks for the chance to win!
    Something good that happened to me is that I sat in the sun while eating my lunch and enjoyed every minute of it. Didn’t want to go back to work. 🙂 I’m so NOT ready for summer to be over.

  46. Jen M. says:

    I met with my playgroup today and that always makes me feel good!! It was also nice and cool this morning for once and felt like fall in TX walking to school.

  49. Louise says:

    Cute stamps! Pick me!

    Something good: I called a friend, we packed lunches and took our toddlers for a run around the forest preserve. Good wholesome fun outside.
