BLOG_CRAWL

the big day is here. jillibean soup has teamed up with bella blvd and nikki sivils for a huge blog crawl! and it lasts all weekend. so you have plenty of time to check it all out. i think it's so cool to see manufacturers work together, and support each other. i got to meet everyone from all three manufacturers at CHA back in january, and they're all so talented and sweet. so i was really excited to hear about this fun event, to bring us all together. so what's this about, you ask?

first off, all three manufactures are doing product giveaways on their blogs. but they want to make it more fun, and get you crawling from blog to blog. so you're going to have to visit one manufacturer's blog and leave a comment, to be eligible to win a different manufacturer's product package. make sense? i know, probably not. i have a way of making things sound complicated. go check out the jillibean soup blog, and they'll have it all mapped out for you 😉

in addition to the manufacturers product giveaways, the design team members are getting involved too. and we've all put some thought into what we're giving away. we got crafty and made stuff. stuff that we think you might want for yourself. that's right. they're all handmade craft giveaways.

Blog_crawl_cards

here is my giveaway, that i put a lot of hard work into. they seem so simple, and they are. and yet they took me forever. lol! a set of six handmade cards, for all occasions. and i don't just have one set of cards. i have TWO sets of cards to giveaway.

Jillibean_bellablvd_cards

i wanted to show you how fun it can be to mix these great manufacturers products together. i focused on the papers for these cards. i started with my jillibean soup "soup staples" papers. they really are staples, because you can match them with anything. for these three cards, i used some fun bella blvd pattern papers from their newest collections. make sure to check out their blog, to get a list of their participating designers that are doing giveaways.

Jillibean_nikkisivils_cards

for these three cards, i used some fun new nikki sivils pattern papers. aren't those little bees adorable? and the "buzz" stands out more in person, but i might have to outline those letter stickers now that i'm looking at it more. make sure and check out their blog, to get a list of their participating designers that are doing giveaways.

want to check out more handmade craft giveaways? here are the girls from jillibean soup that are participating. so make sure to crawl to each blog and check out their craftiness. and then leave a comment for your chance at their giveaway.

Kim Moreno

shannon zickel
summer fullerton
karen nuce (karen's will be on the jillibean blog)
jennifer harkin (jen's will also be on the jillibean blog)

so, just make sure and leave me a comment for your chance to win. i'll even accept international readers, since this isn't anything heavy to mail. the blog crawl is lasting all weekend. so take your time and enjoy it all. and then on monday morning, i will randomly draw 2 winners to receive my handmade cards. good luck and happy crawling :) 

comments now closed. will post the winners in the morning.
