Fast and Fresh Giveaway…

Good evening!  Thanks for all the well wishes coming from my fellow twitter folks.  Colin and I have been slammed big time by allergies – we are doing pretty rough.  But we will be fine.  I had a class tonight, which I made through thanks to some meds. 🙂

Wanted to do a post before heading to bed…

First, quickly, I wanted to announce that Kellie Cox is the winner of the My Favorite Things stamp giveaway.  Congrats!

Next, I have another giveaway!

Creating Keepsakes has a new special issue out that I LOVE.  It is called Fast and Fresh Scrapbooks and it goes on sale today.  Want a sneak peek?  Just click HERE.  Sweet, huh?  One thing I love about the book is it has a lot of great tips, along with yummy page ideas.

If you would like to get your copy, use code "FAST-BLOG" for 20% off your purchase at the Creating Keepakes Shop HERE between May 10-31.

In the meantime, I have a copy to give away!  Just leave a comment by Friday at 11:59pmEST telling me your favorite idea book or site and I will pick a winner of this new book…
