GIVEAWAY!! I'm feeling blessed . . .

Today has been a good day. I'm feeling really blessed with things happening in my life. So I'm giving away some products to you to share in my happiness :)


1st Giveaway: This awesome Beach Album kit, complete with instructions!! This is from The Button Farm and, let me tell you, Angela puts together GREAT kits with detailed instructions.

2nd Giveaway: I have some extra Valentine's products from this year to share (now, really, do you have your Valentines photos scrapped already?) These are from the NoelMignon.com kit last month.
3rd Giveaway: Offbeat Paper Posies kit--this has been my favorite Paper Posies kit and I have some extras to share.

To be entered in the giveaways, here is what you need to do:


** Leave a comment telling me a blessing in your life by Saturday March 13th. Be sure to let me know which giveaway you would prefer, or if you don't care you can say any of them :)

A few blessings - healthy children, a husband who changes sheets, a washing machine, volcano movies on youtube, and dear friends. (and I'm in for the 1st or third,but no valentine's stuff for me - we don't have any pictures from that day!)

What a nice thing for you to do! You are so sweet and such a great person! I had so much fun scrappin' with y'all last weekend! A few blessings in my life would be: A healthy son who keeps me on my toes, finishing my Bachelor's degree (finally!), the beautiful weather we've been having, getting to scrapbook with wonderful ladies last weekend, and great family! I would LOVe the beach kit or the paper posies kit, they look SO fun! I'm glad to hear that you don't have to switch schools!! That is awesome! Thanks for the opportunity to win some scrap goodies! :o)

Hi Mel! I am very blessed to have a healthy family, great friends (in person and online!), a fun scrapbook business and a blessed life overall. I like #1 or #2.

EmmaJ said...

OK, So your cards totally deserved to be featured, they are so good and I know I'll be copying them.
I am blessed because I have a wonderful husband who takes great care of me when I am pregnant. I have not washed more than 10 dishes in the past 9 months. I love the drawings 1 and 3, they are so cute!

GlowWorm said...

I've had my dishwasher for 3 years now, and the magic of it still takes my breath away. Dirty Dishes go in, Clean Dishes come out. That is happiness.

I'm also blessed today with SUNSHINE! I think spring might be here! It is wonderful how a little sun can brighten up my day.

Hi Mel. I had to come check out your blog! Not a blogger myself, but I love to follow others, so I'll be for adding you to my list! I am grateful for my WONDERFUL family, good friends, a good home, a beautiful land to live in, our freedoms (even to scrapbook when we want!), my health and safety, and so much more! Thanks for doing this giveaway; it always does me good to stop and count my blessings! (BTW, I like 3 best, then 2, but 1 is nice, too.)

AmyInKy said...

You're welcome. ;)

I am blessed in so many ways, but my greatest blessing is of course my boys. I also find happiness in endless scrapping supplies, newly printed photos, clean sheets, good wine, cute earrings, and a certain green handbag.

I am blessed to have a loving and close relationship with our children. I am blessed to be able to have my grand children stay over often:) I am blessed to have a husband that adores me and would do anything for me. I am blessed to have blog buddies that have become such wonderful friends and such a wonderful support group.

Love you
xx

Wow- you are such a generous person! I am counting my blessings for a friendship that has endured for 28 of my 32 years, and for the wonderful Girls' weekend we were able to have while my loving and supportive and generous hubby looked after our girls.

Star Rork said...

Hi Mel,
Congrats on all of your blessings, & thanks for blessing us! That is some might fine Raks you have! I am blessed to be able to spend so much time at home. I feel really blessed that me & my hubby are still in love after...forever! I love the first beach kit! I will post on my blog 2!

Julie said...

What a wonderful giveaway. Any of the kits could be put to use, but I still have some vacation pictures from last summer, so the beach album kit would be perfect. I came here via Star's blog.
My blessings-We were on a preschool waiting list for my 3rd child and I just got a phone call that he got in. I love that I won't have to stress and worry about an alternate school.
And I'd have to say the biggest blessing is I will be an aunt any day. My only sister is expecting her first child this month and my husband told me to buy a ticket and go visit her (we live on opposite coasts). I can't wait to meet this new little one!

Carly said...

Hi Mel!! Love your blessings! May you continue to have many more!!

I am blessed to have a beautiful, relatively healthy family that I love and adore who would do anything for me! We are also blessed to have wonderful people look after our kids when we can't be with them. I am blessed to have a job (even when I'd rather be at home) in this day when work can be so hard to come by! I'm also blessed to have wonderful on-line inspiration and people to make me stop and remember how blessed I am!

3 is my fave but all are beautiful!
<3 Carly

I too am feeling blessed by some love in the scrapping community and am giving away some blog candy. But not nearly as yummy as yours!
I came here via Star Rork's blog.
If I won I would prefer No.1 or 2 (only because I already have most of the awesomeness from No.3 in my collection!)

Mary said...

I feel blessed for the things that happen when your plans go out the window. Sometimes god has a better plan for us that we could have thought of.

And if I win I don't really care which kit I get

XXOO AMY said...

umm...I posted a comment, but now I dont see it?! So, I'll say again...I am scrappy blessed recently I have been asked to be a Guest designer and a couple blogs over the next few months, yea me! Star Rork's blog referred me here btw. I would be thrilled to receive any of your giveaways, thank you!

Star Rork said...

Hey Mel, to answer you question about my blog, I used the "stretch minima template". your blog would be perfect for this because you dont even have any background that you have to change. The only pain about it is I wanted a header to match, I couldnt find one so I made my own. It was 14x3, I think. have fun!
