a lovely Saturday giveaway

*if you're looking for our swap list, I added a shortcut! -------------> click on the heart and it will take you to the post..*



I made a little embellishment kit to giveaway on my blog today. Just a few things to add to a scrapbook layout or if your making your own valentine! My favorite is the handmade stickers, I use them on everything; envelopes, notes, cards, tags... and anything else that I can stick them too. :)





If you're taking a break today leave your name in the comment section... and if you have a little extra time I have a question! More like a poll I suppose. Craft class or Scrapbook class?

(If you had the chance (and spare time) what would you rather take, a class on scrapbooking or a class on crafting? Personally, even though I love working with paper, I think I'd be more incline to choose a crafting class. I like the idea of being more open to different projects and maybe not just focusing on only paper crafting. Does that make sense?)

I'll choose a name on Monday morning!!

  1. I'd pick a craft class. There are so many scrapbooking classes out there, but craft classes are far and few in between :)

  5. I'd probably chose a craft class. I mean I feel like I already know pretty much about scrapbooking, but I'm always open to trying new crafty things. Both would be fun, though.
    Thanks for the delightful giveaway!

  28. paper craft class for me :) I love your mini albums and the sweet kits you put together, I am always late to purchase one of them when I arrive in your etsy store (probably because of time zone difference). I hope I am lucky and win this one :)

    I would also choose a crafting class. I see myself as an artist and paper is one of my mediums. I think a crafting class would give me the freedom to use my own creativity. Learning new and creative ways to use paper is something I would love to learn. I am also an art teacher so of course whatever I learn I will be passing on to my students. Love it! Thank You!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  31. Oh what a great little kit you put together:)

    I would choose a craft class but if you love paper so much maybe it can be a class that incorporates some of that love as well.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Yup, definitely a crafting class. Since I love paper so much, it's what I use all the time. Not that I'd say no to a scrapbooking class (lol), but crafting could be ANYthing!

    P.S. I love your stickers, too:) They're one of my favorite things I've ever found on etsy.

    P.P.S., I've been listening to "Jar of Hearts" so much I'm starting to drive MYSELF crazy, lol.

    ReplyDelete
  33. I would totally take a craft class, learn how to make those cute embellishments that you make, and where to gather inspiration from (besides the goodies that you make :) Lovely embellies, and fun too, awesome!!!

    Thanks,
    Clouds :)

  43. Ultimately, I think the it would depend on the project. I love your minis, but a craft class might be more versatile. :)

    ReplyDelete
  44. Such lovely stuff! I'd pick the craft class as it is more versatile, and I could definitely incorporate the techniques into my scrapbook (:

    ReplyDelete
  45. scrapbook class that focuses on techniques to use in paper crafts....when i think craft, i think about my other crafts...needlepoint, knitting, quilting, jewelry...

    ReplyDelete
  46. I love both, but i tend to take more crafting classes. I like learning lots of different techniques and try new things.

    Super cute giveaway!! Thanks for the chance!

    ReplyDelete
  47. Oh, love the eye candy on your post! I'd pick craft class. I've taken so many scrapbooking classes, I'd love something new. But, if you did offer a scrapbooking class, I'd probably take it! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  48. If I had to decide between the two, I'd pick the craft class!

  57. I'm in the minority on this one, but I'd have to scrapbooking class. There's nothing better than making a layout for an album. Even if it's a technique I've used a hundred times, scrapbooking would always get my vote. It's my fave :)
    Thanks for the chance to win!

    ReplyDelete
  64. Craft class. I like doing scrapbook pages but mostly I do altered items like banners and mini albums.

  71. Crafting/scrapbook class hybrid is a great idea. I think the newer generation of scrapbookers loves the idea of using non-traditional items to document our memories!

    ReplyDelete
  72. I'm game for anything crafty. I'd love to see more crafting classes. Thanks for giving us the chance to win such an adorable kit you put together!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  78. That's tough. I would say new techniques for scrapbooking.

    ReplyDelete
  79. Beautiful work!!!
    I would also pick a crafting class, since the ideas could be used universally. I think developing a wide range of skills is more worth while - makes you more versatile.

    ReplyDelete
