TADA!!!!
My very first Giveaway (it's not much at first but let's see if this sparks any interest) to thank the readers and friends that have read my little piece of journaled life in the last few months.
I've seen so many great blogs and journals and this is just a simple way of saying "Thanks!"
We are living in depressing times these days so having something sent in the mail to cheer one up is always a big welcome!

For my first giveaway I went with a black and white (think 30's film) theme.
Included you will get two sets of black and white blank greeting cards (you can use them plain or embellish them with your own touch), a red/white writing tablet and a fridge magnetic "TO DO" list. Also, you will get a cute chandelier rubber stamp with black stamp pad and a box of chocolate covered toffee (to eat while you watch your 30's movie).
This is how the giveaway will work:
Post a comment to this post. It can be about anything. If more than one person comments, I will conduct a drawing and announce the winner on the blog sometime this weekend. You will have till Saturday morning to add a comment. Once the winner is announced, I will have you email your address to me (tempfishie@gmail.com) and it will be merrily sent to you.
A second drawing may take place (if I have enough interest) and the winner will get a set of their very own custom "calling cards". They are modern cards with a vintage touch to send to friends and family, especially during holiday season gatherings. Tuck the cards in your purse if you run into an old friend, go to a reunion, tuck it into a Christmas card. Show folks how to keep in touch! It sure beats looking for a piece of paper in your purse or a pen.
It will include your name, email, phone number, website, blog site, etc. Just about anything you want it to say. Think of it as a personal business card only for your personal life. The Victorians knew a good thing by sending out calling cards....can you imagine if they had blogs and cell phones back then? It wouldn't just be a name printed on them.
Keep in mind, they are the size of business cards and they are enlarged to show detail.
Here are some samples I played with:

Hello! Very cute blog, and cute giveaway package you put together too! :-)
Oh - I would love both- but especially the cards! How crafty...I think this blog will have to be added to my fav!
What a nice gesture...I'm a sucker for giveaways! I will definitely be checking out your blog more often (found you on the Nest).
The basket looks awesome!! Love the beach picture from your trip to AC.

I dub you Miss Thoughtful! What an awesome idea! I know whoever wins will appreciate it (but I do hope it's me!).
such a cute idea - here's hoping i win :)
I just want to say, I am jealous of your creativity. I still have not figured out the whole blog thing, nor do i have the creativity to do some of the things you have mentioned on your blog. Keep up the great work! You have great ideas and they will take you far in life!
A giveaway is a cool idea! I'm glad I caught it before it ended!
Oh and thanks for the comment on my blog about my niece! :) It made me smile.
Why is it I'm just finding out about this now....? Anywho's this is such a cute idea! I loves it!
p.s. It's gravy not sauce ;) Teehee!
Aw, leave it to you to whip up a modern day calling card! Love it!
I LOVE your idea about the calling cards. Even if I don't win the drawing, I'm planning on designing some for myself. Thanks for the creative ideas!!!
