Hello! Lucky Giveaway Winner

Hello! Lucky Giveaway Winner

Thank you to everyone who shared your special local and family holiday traditions with us during the Hello! Lucky destination holiday card giveaway. I could feel the holiday spirit coming through in your stories, and that had me thinking about my own family traditions and the local holiday traditions from my hometown. Such a warm and fuzzy feeling. Thank you, again, for sharing.

The winner of the giveaway is Emily, comment #8:

Our favorite tradition is taking out the manger scene. Each figure is unwrapped and carefully put up on our mantle. My children LOVE it. Since it’s done the same way every year.

Congratulations, Emily, and I will be in touch shortly to let you know how you can claim your prize!

Playing with Books Giveaway Winner

Playing with Books Giveaway

Congratulations to Erin, who posted comment #69 and is the winner of the Playing with Books giveaway! Erin, I’ll be in touch with you shortly to let you know how to claim your prize.

Here’s what Erin had to say about paper:

I am a paper-hoarder. Any beautiful paper. Any cool postcard or announcement or greeting card. If I like it, I keep it. My poor husband is so gracious about the piles in the craft room. (I’m a lucky wifey!) I have a 1-year-old so don’t get much time to paper craft, but I cut up the hoards of paper I have and usually turn them into greeting cards so they can brighten someone else’s day the way they did mine! I’d love to check out this book and get more ideas for ways to use my paper.

Thanks to everyone for your wonderful giveaway entries. I’ll say it again —you gals and guys are so creative, and I love hearing about what you’re up to! Rock on with your paper projects!

Power Outage

Hi, everyone. I woke up to a power outage this morning, and since power was just restored, I think I’ll hold off until tomorrow on the posts that I had scheduled for today. Trust me, it’ll be worth the wait! Tomorrow is “baby day”, and I’ll be launching an absolutely fantastic giveaway, as well as sharing some wonderful custom work from one of my favorite letterpress shops. So, tune in tomorrow!

P.S. Speaking of great giveaways, today is the last day to enter to win a copy of Playing with Books, so head on over if you haven’t already and let us know how you’ve been having fun with paper recently!

TGIF!

I just returned from a weeklong out of state trip and am in the process of playing catch up with my inbox and regular reads, so no regularly scheduled programming today. But I’ll be back next week with plenty of new paper goodies and eye candy for you, and From the Shop Friday and Weekly Wrap will return next Friday. Have a great weekend, everyone!
