AND THE WINNERS OF THE GIVE AWAY ARE.....


   NatashaMay and Julia Dunnit !!

 Thank you to everyone who completed my poll and left a comment on my Vintage and a Give-Away post. 
I really do appreciate your feedback and helpful responses. 

In June I will be celebrating my first year of blogging.  How the time has flown!  I've learned so much and I would like to do something to mark the occasion.  A blog hop, give away, or a challenge come to mind, but I wonder if you have any other ideas to share?  Do please let me know, or share a link to show me!  Come up with an idea that I choose and a small gift will be on its way to you!

VINTAGE and a GIVE AWAY!!




 While I was in Whitstable recently I came across a Vintage 
 Sale.  I love vintage so you can imagine my excitement!  There
 was bundles of lace, buttons galore, fabrics, and some beautiful
 handmade bags in vintage style.  And what made the visit even
 more special was that my husband came across something
 very exciting, and realised that I would love it.



                       Can you guess what it is??




The woman suggested it could be used as a door stop, book end, or ornament.



She obviously didn't know that I would want the machine for what it was actually designed for...

which is this:






My husband doesn't really understand my passion for all things creative - but perhaps I got that wrong!  At least in this instance he got it completely right and the machine even came with the original label attached.


I have a box of materials already to make haberdashery cards and mini albums so this embossed stamp will be just perfect.

Then I got to thinking.........      
I wonder if others would like to share my lucky find? 
If I made some tags or labels, is this the sort of thing crafters might like to use in their designs? 

So... can I be cheeky and ask you to complete this short poll for me please!?  It will only take a few seconds.  And as a thank you I'd like to offer 2 sets of these tags, and I'll also throw in a something extra as a surprise.

So that I can identify you just leave a comment after you have completed the poll and I will pick 2 names from random on 20th May.  This is my first give-away so I am quite excited.  My first poll too, so make this extra excited! 

I do hope you will take part as I'd love to hear your thoughts, whether you sew, scrapbook, journal, or create in other ways . And perhaps you have other ideas how these stamps can be used... please share !!




I have included this post in What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday. If you want to find out what other people are creating visit Julie's site here.  It's great to see other people's work space and mess organisation, it makes me feel so normal!
