Let’s celebrate…

Hi, everyone!

Ivotedsticker

Let's celebrate election day!  I am so glad it is finally here.  I have another giveaway to celebrate!  And for you non-US people, you can play, too, of course. 🙂

But I do have to say, I hate the day after the election.  Even if I am happy with who won, I still feel SO bad for the person who didn't win.  Imagine how sad they are after putting so much into it?  I feel the same way when someone gets booted off Dancing With the Stars.  Ha. 🙂

How about a couple quick shares.  This is from an old Autumn Leaves project, but I wanted to share anyway.  The challenge was to use all my current favorite products on one project.  Turns out not much has changed – still buttons, gems, sewing, stamping, flowers, enlarged photos, mini photos and computer journalling.  (The only thing I would add now is AC's Thickers. 🙂

And this is from Hero Arts.  I just stumbled upon it today and thought I would share it here.  Isn't Erin Cobb's daughter gorgeous?  I would love for Erin to take pictures of my family someday, along with Lisa Russo.  My dreams. 🙂

And I have a winner of the Jamie Scraps kit from Sunday's post is Carol B!  I will email you.

You still can enter yesterday's drawing for the fabulous Studio Calico kit if you post HERE by tonight.

And… finally… today's giveaway!  Just leave a comment on this post by 11:59pmEDT on Wednesday night and I will pick a random winner of this great 6×6 BasicGrey Offbeat paper pack.  (It is perfect for cardmaking. I just ordered one from 2peas for myself and decided to order an extra to give away here.)  And, can you help me out?  In your comment, please give me some ideas of questions I could ask you all for my giveaway comments.  Anything you want to learn about your fellow stampers?  I loved asking about your recipe ideas.  I am collecting some from you all and will share soon.  Thank you!  Oh, and here is the BG paper pack you could win…

Thanks for stopping by and being my happy place every night.  Take care! 🙂

    Hi Jennifer, it must be really hard having to come up with a question for us to answer when you give things away!! I thought a long time, and came up with a few: what is your pet’s name, and why? What country would you like to visit and why? What state is your favorite to visit? What colors are you wearing today? What are some of your other hobbies?

    Does that help any?

  6. Tracy Dayett says:

  25. Victoria S. says:

    I am always on the hunt for how to organize scrapping supplies especially stamps – wooden ones like SU! and the elusive ribbon problem when you have tons of spools.

  26. I think someone mentioned using scrapbooking quotes, but how about just any quotes? It would be fun to see what people share.

  27. April Z says:

    I love the paper – too cute! With the holidays coming up it might be fun to ask what traditions people have.

  28. Leigh says:

    A question: what scrappy tool can you not live without?

  29. Dani says:

    How about this one: In sticking with the theme of your post for today, I would want to know, “If you could have one person photograph your family, who would it be?” I would choose Megan Cristello… she’s AMAZING. Of course it helps that her kids are GORGEOUS! But really, all her photos are just gorgeous, even ones of people she’s not related to! Check her out:

    Love the paper…my questions is what homemade gift ideas do you have to help “save” some money for the holidays? I could use some good ideas!!
