Giveaway

Bloggy Giveaways Quarterly Carnival Button







It's time again for the quarterly giveaways hosted at Bloggy Giveaways.





In the spirit of fun and giving I have two items I would like to give away.





The first is a handmade (by my neighbor) tatted bookmark. Now this is just awesome to me. Sandy does not have a blog, but she enjoys mine and wanted to have a part in giving, so she made this beautiful bookmark.









The detail on this is just wonderful! She is quite a talented lady.



I will also be giving away this notepad/pen holder that I made.


So that will be two prizes to two different winners. All you have to do is leave me a comment between 7:00 a.m. Monday, April 21st and midnight Friday, April 25th to be entered for the drawing. I will use a random number generator to choose the winners, and I'll post the winners here on Saturday. Isn't that exciting!

I will post a tutorial for the notepad holder some time this week. I finished making it this morning, and the pictures are not the best, but there's not much natural light at 2:00 a.m. :) ;)

Sorry, I can't tell you how she made the bookmark. I have no clue.

Have fun entering all the giveaways!

You are two creative ladies. The tatting reminds me of a wonderful elderly woman that we used to live by. She used to make me tatted snowflakes for our Christmas tree. Please enter me in your drawing.
Many thanks,Cindi

The bookmark is really pretty. No way could I ever do something like that and make it look so nice! I'll be back to see how you made the notepad holder. I could use something like that in my purse for jotting down notes.

Wow! Great prizes. My hubby's aunt wants to teach me tatting, but we don't live close enough right now. :( I hope we get to move closer soon, so I can learn this dying art.

Also, I love the notebook holder. I'm an avid sewer, and I never thought of making something like that. I LOVE IT!

So, thanks for the chance to win these unique prizes. I love 'em.

My father tried to teach me to tat (his mother had taught him), but I just couldn't get the hang of it well enough. Both prizes look terrific. I'll have to check out how you made the notepad holder (in case I don't win). What a great idea! Thanks!
