EART TEAM GIVEAWAY


Starting today the Eclectic Artisans Team (EART) is hosting a great giveaway.  Each day will highlight a different artist and the item they are giving away.  Check the EART blog each day and enter all the fabulous giveaways!

Swap-bot

Have you heard of Swap-bot?  I've just recently joined and it's a lot of fun. Here is an excerpt from the website:

Do you like sending and receiving snail mail? Do you like writing letters, making crafts, or putting together fun packages? You should try swapping! Swap-bot is a online service that organizes group swaps and a community of creative individuals. Swap-bot takes the hassle out of participating in group swaps by organizing all of the participant information and doing all of the partner assignments. On Swap-bot, you can host swaps, join swaps, and chat with other swappers from all over the world. Give it a try!

It's exciting to get packages or notes in the mail from all over the US or even the world.  One swap partner I sent to lived in Sweden. I thought that was pretty cool.

You can swap anything from postcards to dotee dolls to themed items!

Of course one of the swaps I recently participated in was titled, "Pink, Pink, Pink!"  I'm still patiently waiting for my wonderful pink items to arrive.  

Go ahead and click on over to Swap-bot.  Let me know if you become a swapper like me!

And More Cupcakes....





Yep...more CUPCAKES!  I just love how these little beauties turned out.  Pictures do not do them justice!  I just have too much fun creating different color combinations and I am amazed at what a little glitter can do!  I really like coming up with names for them, too.  (I always wanted to be the person who came up with names for nail polish or crayons-how fun would that be?) 

The best part is I think I may have a little cupcake giveaway!  Stay tuned!

(oh, BTW-you can find a few cupcakes in my Etsy store)

I'm Still Alive


Hi friends! Yes, I'm still alive and kicking. This winter has me feeling blah...and I had to visit the doctor with chest/torso pains today, but it looks like it's just horrendous heartburn?!?!? Weird.

So here's what's new!

1. I'm now a member of the new Etsy Team called "Eclectic Artisans Team". I don't think it's on the Etsy Team page yet but it soon will be! Right now it's by invitation only to join. Click here to visit our blog

2. I've been adding a few things to my Etsy store and am toying with the idea of opening another one soon.

3. I was involved in two giveaways in the past week. One on Mammalicious Finds and the other on EtsyGreetings. The former was doing a giveaway that involved anything to do with cupcakes so I donated a set of my Cupcake Magnets to give away. The latter giveaway was through another group I belong to-EtsyGreetings. Ironically I donated a Cupcake Card Set!

4. My 15 year-old son just got his driver's permit, my two year-old daughter is potty trained (huge yippee!) and my 8 month old son started crawling on Saturday! What an exciting month!

Have a fabulous day!
