STRIPED BOW RUBBERSTAMP + GIVEAWAY!

Cute right? So cute! I love stripes, I love bows, I love tiny!  Together you have the new striped motif stamp!  Too many exclamation points? Okay, I will try to dial it down this Monday morn, but I am excited.  I have to admit this holiday creep that happened the day after Halloween has thrown me a bit. Why did I not notice that people are getting ready for holiday so soon?  I am usually either hyper aware or totally oblivious, it's how I live my life, the holiday creep must of been one of my oblivious moments, but back to the stamp...I think it will be something that will be useful way past Christmas/Chanukah/Kwanza, etc. It's just a good little stamp to have. It's especially cute printed in red, very festive!  Of course, I shall be giving one away because Mondays are always better when  a prize is involved, right?  Just re-pin this here, or Tweet it, or leave me a delightful comment, I am open to however you would like to enter to win.  I will announce the winner next Monday. If you can't wait, you can always pick one up here.

How is your shopping coming along? Are you like everyone else and have started your shopping in July for holiday?  Or are you waiting until after Thanksgiving and will succumb to the holiday heat?  I'm not a last minute shopper, I actually think about gifts all year round (if you haven't gathered yet, I am a bit obsessive, so no surprise that I have been thinking about something for 12 months straight).  This will be the first year though that I prepared so thoroughly personally. I was assuming professionally I wouldn't have to bring out the goods until the day after Thanksgiving, but I have quickly learned otherwise--noted.

And I must announce the winner of last weeks giveaway the Stag silhouette  + tiny snowflake, I couldn't choose just one so I chose--Paulina Bäfverfeldt and Georgina Gill (because flattery gets you everywhere with me). I do hope it makes the winners less anxious to know they can make holiday goods (cards, tags, ornaments, etc.) on the fly!  Good luck to everyone on today's giveaway and thank you all as always for playing, it delights me to no end to be able to see what you will create with the prizes.  Oh, yes, and of course this giveaway is open world wide!
