Seasons Givings Blog Giveaway

Hi there friends old, new and yet to be!  Today I'm participating in the Season's Givings Blog Hop.  Each and every blog along the hop is giving something away as a way to thank our readers for the wonderful ways you touch our lives.  So a great big thank you to all of you who read my ramblings and follow my erratic postings, brightening my day with comments and emails of support.  Without you I might not have anything but twinspeak from my boys running through my head all day!  {grin}

So I've put together two giveaways.  One is en entire box filled with brand new stamps and supplies.  The second is a gift certificate to Verve Stamps.  To be eligible for the prize drawings, just leave a comment on this post before 10:59pm Mountain on Jan. 5.


Giveaway 1: {winner must have a US shipping address}


Wings of LoveChevron Love, Wavy Hearts Die Set, Twitterpated, No Matter What, and the Hearts & Swirls Die Set from Verve Stamps, several background rubber stamps by Christy Tomlinson and Art McKracken, Heirloom Patterns background clear stamp set from Waltzingmouse Stamps, paper and embellishments from Crate Paper and Basic Grey, Stampin' Up! ribbon, Dear Lizzy roller date stamp and random embellishments

$75 Gift Certificate to Verve Stamps.


Comment deadline for prize giveaways is 10:59pm Mountain on Saturday, January 5.  
Please check back on Jan. 6 to see if you are a winner.



For my card today, I pulled out the Wings of Love and Chevron Love sets from Verve for a quick little Valentine.  The heart with wings image from Wings of Love is stamped in black on crumb cake and I highlighted with a white prismacolor pencil.  Next I stamped the chevron heart from Chevron Love in strawberry slush and hand cut.  I also stamped the for you sentiment in black, then highlighted with white pencil.  Some patterned paper from my stash and a crumb cake base embossed with a Sizzix embossing folder finishes things off.

Enabler's List
Stamps: Chevron Love, Wings of Love (Verve Stamps)
Paper: crumb cake, basic black (SU!)
Ink: black, strawberry slush (SU!), white prismacolor pencils
Accessories: embossing folder (Sizzix), black rhinestones

Thank you for your very generous giveaways, so kind of you!!! I especially love your bible verse stamps and have bought quite a few of those and plan on buying more. I really appreciate it that you have put the bible verses in the Plain Jane section and have made them so reasonably priced. Although I live in Canada, I am only 40 minutes from the US border and drive across sometimes to pick up craft orders I've sent to a US address, so receiving the package of stamps and goodies would be fine for me too, no problem to give a US address. Thanks so much, Joanne
