Happy World Kindness Day! + Giveaways!

Hello! Happy World Kindness Day! I hope your day is wonderful and overflowing with kindness.

I am here to share the names of the winners from last week, along with an important video and a few projects that I think are worth checking out. Oh, and a lot more giveaways!

KIND CAMPAIGN VIDEO

This video shares a bit more about the Kind Campaign – the group I have been talking about throughout the Share Handmade Kindness Challenge. I think it is so powerful!

If you would like to learn more about the Kind Campaign and/or donate, head HERE. Lots of good resources, too!

Also, please keep checking my Instagram account. I am hoping to auction some crafty items in the next few weeks… with the money going to support the Kind Campaign!

FEATURED

I am blown away by all the amazing projects you have all shared for the challenge! I encourage you to look at projects other have done… either linked in the thumbnails on THIS post or by searching social media with the hashtag @sharehandmadekindness. So many inspiring projects! I wish I could leave comments on each and every one. My hope is that people will see all these great projects and be inspired to share kindness, too.

Here are a few Week 1 projects that caught my eye. Just click to see more…

WINNERS

Here are the winners from last week. Remember – I am giving away goodies with each post this month, so there are lots of chances to win. (This is just one easy way for me – and the companies I love! – to spread kindness to fellow cardmakers.) I have emailed all of the winners….

And the Week 1 participation winners are:

  • $100 Simon Says Stamp: Vicki Finger
  • $25 Lawn Fawn: scrappinNavyWife
  • $50 Paper Smooches: LaurieC paperprincess

GIVEAWAY

One of my dear friends, Connie Williams, hosts the Stampaway stamping convention here in Cincinnati each August. She also owns a stamp company called Verses Rubber Stamps. Well, when she heard of the Share Handmade Kindness Challenge, she stopped by my house and left a box of stamps on my porch to give to a few readers. How great is that? So kind.

So…today I am giving away FIFTEEN stamps! (I will pick fifteen winners and you will each get a stamp.) For your chance, leave a comment below by 11:59pmEST on 11/15/15 telling me your something kind someone has done for you lately. (The winner’s name will be randomly selected and posted on my “Winners page” after the giveaway closes. International folks are eligible, too.)

I will be back soon with a video. Take care!

  1. One of the ladies in my church took the time to write me a very kind thank you note for leading our ladies Bible study. It was a huge encouragement to me at a time when I was feeling very discouraged. God used her to breathe new life into my lungs.

  2. Yesterday, I took the girls to dance class, and a random mom gave me a starbucks coffee saying she got one free and offered it to me! You are so kind Jennifer!

  3. My daughter took me out for my birthday this weekend and we had a early cake…she also gave me her sewing machine…then told me we were celebrating again on my real birthday this week and that the sewing machine was not my gift…although as far as I am concerned, just the time with her and my granddaughters are enough for me…they just make my day…I am very blessed in the granddaughter department, I have 4 of them…each one a princess…each one amazing! God Bless them!

  4. One of the cute 4-year-olds I teach on Sunday’s and her mom stopped by with cookies and a cute card. It made my day! Thanks for the chance to win!

  5. I was visiting my daughter and her family last week. When I arrived, my son-in-law was in the kitchen cooking my favorite meal. I felt so welcomed by the man that loves my daughter.

  6. I work in the ESL department of an adult school. Sometimes on Mondays, my tote is pretty loaded down with items I take to work for the week. Last Monday, one of the students in the hallway saw me as I walked from the parking lot and offered to carry my tote to my office. What a wonderful way to start my work week! LOVE those verses stamps! Thanks for a great giveaway!

  7. My name got on a card drive list and I receive cards from two ladies each week! Sometimes it is one from each of them and other times one or r the other send 3 or 4 in a week. One of the ladies even sends my granddaughter a card every other week or so and includes some little treats for her to enjoy. Every day as we are walking down the driveway to get our mail she will ask me if it is her “Happy Day”. When she finds out that she got ail she dances all the way back up our 1100′ driveway and rushes upstairs so she can open her treat~treat as she calls it. It is so sweet that the lady send Jenna mail. It really brightens her whole day!

  8. Love your kindness posts. The 3 rubber stamp verses are truly exceptional. Something kind done for me lately is my husband designed an adjustable heat gun tool holder for me that can be used with any barrel heat gun. Love the thoughtfulness of this guy! He also made bow makers for my entire card making group. Being a master antique restoration craftsman he makes projects that always have the fine look and finish you would expect from a piece of furniture rather than just roughly thrown together. Love this guy!

  9. My friends have supported me lately, as my mum has broken both hips within 4 weeks. I’m so thankful for them. ?

  10. My good friend has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. While getting her hair cut short anticipating chemo a stranger handed her a gift card which paid for her to get her haircut free!! She had overheard the conversation with the hairdresser and performed an act of kindness!!! My friend was overwhelmed and I am feeling warm and thankful to that stranger for making my friend smile!!

  11. The other day I was offered some ‘loyalty points’ when at the supermarket – the customer ahead of me did not participate in the scheme, so gave me the points she qualified for.
    Also love your tutorials – they are a gift in themselves
    Blessings
