This has been the most fun week ever! I’ve loved reading everyone’s comments – and it’s not like you have just been entering for the giveaways – you’ve left some wonderful notes that are really encouraging to me! Thank you so much, everyone!
I am excited to wrap up this week with one of my most recent newest things – a craft I became obsessed with over the summer, and it threatened to push my yarny-pursuits off the radar completely (although, I’m not sure if that could ever happen…) – paper cutting!
For my last Bloggy Giveaway giveaway, I will give one lucky commenter a custom designed paper cutting.
This might not sound special, but I feel like I’m really putting myself out there with this one. The other giveaways I’ve been giving things that I love but that I don’t really have much creative input into on my own (OK, the owl was pretty creative, but I’ve been sewing for as long as I can remember. I’ve only been cutting paper for a couple months). I’ve only designed a couple things myself, but I’ve been so pleased with how they’ve turned out, and I’ve gotten a great response from them…
Here are most of the things I’ve cut…
1. Big Boy Rocket, 2. Little Man Space Ship, 3. robot, 4. leaf, 5. dandelion blowing, 6. celtic knot 2, 7. flowers, 8. dandelion 2, 9. dandelion 1
The other things I’ve cut I’ve either not been happy with or not taken a picture of (whoops!). Four of the cuttings I designed myself (numbers 1, 2, 4, and 5). The others I used pictures as guides, with some modifications to make them appropriate for cutting.
If you win this giveaway, I will design and cut a custom piece of art for you – your choice of sizes (up to 12×12 inches – I work mostly in cardstock and use a lot of scrapbook paper) and your choice of colors, your choice of theme and wording… If you have a child that you’d like something special for their room, I’ve got some more great ideas along the lines of numbers 1 and 2… If you have a floral pattern that you adore in your dining room table cloth and would like a matching cutting for the wall, I’ll whip one up. If you’d like to give your mother-in-law a special gift for Christmas to go with her southwestern-themed sunroom, I’ll try my best! And I’ll have it to you way in advance of Christmas! I will not frame it – that part will be up to you.
To win this custom cutting, please leave me a comment (with a valid email address) letting me know what you think you might like as a design if you win. You won’t be held to that though – you can always change you mind when you win and start to really think about it. Comments will be accepted through the end of the day (12:00am PST), and the drawing will occur on Saturday, November 1.
If this is your first time here, take a look around – I’d love for you to come back again! Also, check out my Bloggy Giveaways from Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and Thursday, the giveaway on my other blog, and the others at the Bloggy Giveaway Carnival site!!! This has been a wonderful week – it’s been fun meeting all of you!!!
