Congrats to Digital Misfit on winning the purse contest! The new name is "I've Got You In My Clutch". You will be hearing from me soon on how to claim your purse. For those who didn't win, if you buy anything from my shop between now and the end of April, just put GIVEME10 in the note to seller and wait for a revised invoice for 10% off your total purchase. Thanks again to all who entered, and don't forget to enter the necklace giveaway.

You Know You Want To Win This

Here it is...the fabulous April Birthday Giveaway! I'm turning 28 on the 24th, so what better way to celebrate than to give something away. You could be the winner of this wonderful glass pearl necklace just by doing (almost) nothing. The necklace is 19" long, made with copper and rose toned glass pearls, gold colored metal accents, and and a HUGE antique-looking metal and resin pendant with crystal accents. This would normally retail in my shop for $25, so not bad for a couple minutes work.

So how do I win this? you might be asking. Well it's easy: Just head over to my Etsy shop here and check out my items (feel free to heart at will). Then come back here and leave a comment to this post about which item(s) you like and why you like them...that's it! And as an added bonus, if you make any purchase's from my shop, you get a bonus entry in the contest for each item purchased. Just put the word "BLOGGER" in the comments to seller section when you make your purchase to get your bonus entries.

The winner will be picked at random on April 24th and notified that night...so make sure you are either a follower or you leave an e-mail in your comment so I can get in touch with you.

So there you have it! Happy Birthday to me and good luck to everyone.

The Purses Are Being Delayed

Hate to say it, but I have to delay the launch of the new purses. Work has been very stressful lately and I haven't had the time needed to really get into creating them. I am hoping to have them ready to go for next week, along with announcing the winner of the naming contest. But to hold you over until then...there will be a new giveaway here starting tomorrow for a great necklace, s omake sure to check back.

The Contest Has Ended

So many great names came in for the purse contest that it's going to be hard to choose just one. Check back on April 1st to see who the winner is along with the new purses in my shop. Plus, just for the fun of it, since my birthday is in April, there will be a brand new giveaway on here for a very cool necklace...details to come.

Oh the downside of a day job.

So it's been a while since my last post. Things have been hectic and quite irritating at work lately. Anyway, I finally got my first sale last week so that was definitely cool. I've also been busy putting lots of new stuff up on my store, plus trying to get as many purses made before next Wednesday as possible. Also a quick name drop to flirtbuttons over at Etsy. I was lucky number 750 in sales for her. If you haven't seen her stuff, I definitely recommend checking it out here.
