Sweet MAGIC it's February! My birthday month and my favorite month. To celebrate, I am hosting a giveaway. It's called "These Are My Favorite (Pink, Purple, Red & Blue) Flat Things That Will Fit In A 9×12 Envelope." Because HEY! I hate paying a lot for shipping but I love to give away stuff.

Inside the thick envelope there will be: pretty & hard to find papers, my 2nd favorite Tiny Art Print by KAL (my first favorite is hanging on my wall in original form), discontinued Paper Source labels (gasp! – These are worth AT LEAST $2 each!!), letterpress prints & cards and other cool paper goods.

To enter, leave a comment telling me what you would like to see more of on this blog. If you can't think of anything, just leave your name and that will count too. Internationals, PLAY ALONG! I promise I will ship the envelope outside the US if you win. Giveaway will close Monday night and I will announce a winner on Tuesday.

Hooray! And go FOOTBALL! It's February AND Super Bowl Sunday!

p.s. There are still valentines for sale! You're favorite lover and/or friend will be so touched.

    Elise! I’m a huge fan of you and your blog. I look forward to more DIY crafts and more amazing artsy ideas. And please do continue posting about your little inspirations, from the internet and from life (and love) in general. And I will never get tired of seeing letterpress in your blog, it’s the most wonderful paper art I’ve ever seen 🙂 More power!
