Yes, I realize misspelling “exciting” just to get away with an X-themed post is cheating, but it’s been a long day and I don’t know enough about xanthan gum for a proper X-themed post. Besides, giveaways are more fun!
My day has been incredibly relaxing. I did an hour of yoga on my living room floor and then singed some of my hair off when I got too close to the simmering pot of cranberry sauce on the stove (my hair fell onto the burner!). After dinner Tim and I played Scrabble (I won) and pretty soon we are making steamy mugs of hot chocolate! We need to save our energy for tomorrow’s annual Fur Free Friday march in downtown Portland. It’s a peaceful march protesting the sale of fur. This will be our third year attending and I love being amidst compassionate folks speaking out for the animals. If there is a Fur Free Friday march happening in your town, I encourage you to go.
Now for the (e)xciting giveaway!!! Over the summer I opened an Etsy shop, Chirp Cards, where I sell handmade cards. With the holiday season in full swing, I thought it might be nice to host a little giveaway featuring cards from my shop. If you’d like to be entered in the contest, visit my shop and leave a comment here telling me which two cards you would like to win. I will randomly choose a winner on Monday, November 29th. The winner will receive the two cards they chose plus an extra surprise. This contest is open to everybody – so there’s no reason not to enter, right?
Good luck :)



Awwwww! The Holiday Turtle and Holiday Owls cards are just darling. :)
Those cards are adorable. I read your blog on Reader so I didn’t realize you had a an etsy. My favourites are the “love snail card” and “birds on a branch”. The holiday owl cards are super cute too. Emma
If I won I would like the Pen and Ink Bird Card and the windmill one :)
This is so funny – I think someone recently sent me one of your cards! (did you do Halloween ones?) It was adorable, by the way. :)
I think I like the Love Snail and the Pen and Ink Bird the best.
I did do some Halloween ones!
YAY!
All those cards are deeee-lightful but I really really reeeeealy like the owl ones. I LOVE owls.
Taweet tawooo!
:)
Those cards are beautiful!They are all adorable, but turtle and piggy are my favourites!
P.S. Sorry about your hair :(
Oh my goodness, definitely the Love Snail and the Piglet with the apple core!!
The cards are so cute!
I think I like the Holiday Owls and the Love Snail card the best. Those owls are just way to adorable.
all items are so adorable.
the best for me are the Spiky Dinosaur Card (reminds me of someone because of the Dino thingy) and the Love Snail Card (the hearts are just so cute)
Oh no, your hair! Also, singed hair is the most horrifying smell. It smells like terror!
Ahem. Anyway, what an excellent giveaway. I’ve got plans for your hedgehog card on the 29th already, but I’d really love to have the school of fish card and the bird on a branch card. It’s so hard to choose, though. I also want to point out how beautiful the presentation of the cards is upon opening the package.
Thanks! I was wondering how well the wrapped card survived its postal journey!
Pen & Ink bird or spikey dino – or the Christmas turtle, because it’s so sweet, or the love snail, because it’s got hearts and a snail – how freaking cute! I am such a fan, but you know that already…
Your hair! I’m so happy you didn’t burn yourself. Be careful, and keep winning!
I ended up getting a hair cut today because the singing did a little damage!! My stove wants me to be bald apparently!
Belated thank you for the gorgeous cards!
