Mother’s Day Bloggy Giveaway
I really appreciate all of my readers and to show it, I’m going to do a bloggy giveaway. To enter, all you have to do is add a comment to this post. I will use one of those handy random number generators to pick the winner, who will be announced on April 27th.
First, I will be giving away a pack of ephemera from my supply closet. Use it to make a Mother’s Day card or to create an heirloom collage for your mom’s wall. For those of you who aren’t into mixed media art, ephemera is basically cool paper stuff. I’m including pages from vintage books, maps, cigar labels and postcards made before 1921 in this pack, but ephemera doesn’t have to be old. If you got a ticket stub and a program from a show you went to and held onto them, you already have some ephemera.

Next, I have a copy of Wide Open. It is a useful set for people who are just beginning to do art journals.

I confess that I had to look up the term ephemera. The art journal is what caught my eye. Thanks.

Cool, cool stuff. I’m a scrapbooker who would like to use more ephemera on my pages. I also have an idea for a journal that would need to be decorated, so the book would be perfect.

Hello, my name is Brianne, and I’m a crafting addict! I am addicted to stamping after someone introduced me to Stampin’ Up, and to scrapbooking after someone else introduced me to Creative Memories. Too bad for my pocketbook that we have AC Moore, JoAnn’s and Michaels - but maybe it’s a good thing that I’m a little cheap… I can’t go without one of their 40 or 50% off coupons.
This sounds like an awesome giveaway. Thanks for posting it!
