** Update -- I will leave comments open until about 9am EST, Monday, June 1st. I'll announce the winners later on in the day. **
Yay! It's May Giveaway Day! Woot! *running man* Okay, okay, okay. I'm calm now. *deep breath*
Okay, So I'm giving away a lovely pincushion just like the one featured in my book! It's made out of a watercolor palette and it makes me swoon with delight! I hope the winner will love it as much as I do. ^_^
Next up, I'm giving away a free copy of the new issue of Stitch. I have a little tote bag featured in this issue. Check it out! It's an awesome issue. I'm going to post some photos in my next post this afternoon.
And finally I'd like to give one lucky winner a free copy of my bookety book when it releases. You won't get it for a few months. But I'll put a little something extra in the mail for that winner to hold you over until the book is out. ^_^
So three winners folks! I'm also shipping internationally so everyone is welcome to leave a comment if you'd love to have one of these lovelies!












Fantastic giveaways! What a great use for watercolor trays!
