Giveaway - Day Eight - Sticky Notes

I take a lot of notes, or write a lot of notes and reminders for myself. Even then I can forget, but they sure do help, ... when I remember to read them. :-) Today's giveaway is for anyone, anywhere that needs to jot down a note when they are at home, or on the go. These notepads with pen included are great to keep in the car, your purse, your laptop bag, or a kids backpack. They come in handy just about anywhere. And it is re-fillable with a 3" x 3" sticky note pad. I made a bunch of these to use as small gifts, and today someone lucky will win one. I took a sheet of poster board (recycled from my Sisters job) and randomly stamped using several different rubber stamps, then I colored some of the images with markers and color pencils. When that was complete I cut out as many of the jackets as possible using as much of the poster board so as to not waste any. And this is the end result of just one of them.

This is the inside and it has a hook and loop closure to keep the note pad tidy and everything secure when it's tossed in a purse or bag.

  1. Super giveaway!! I am always running out of sticky-notes. :-)
    A joke from my dd:
    Q:"Why did the baby ghost cry?"
    A:"Because it had a boo-boo."

  2. NOw whatever would make you think you need to improve your blog? I think it is grand as is.

    What do you get when you cross a hillbilly and an aiplane?

    A hiccup... (That was from a 2nd grader at cub scouts.)

  8. Lovely the way you decorated the little notepad... It's a very useful giveaway!!
    I'm only know some jokes in spanish... and your blog is beautiful to give you any tip! But I have one suggestion for the mandatory comment: every day you can ask a question about us.. something weird, something funny, something scary, etc. ^^

  9. I can always use sticky notes. Seems like I go through them like crazy.

    As for your blog, I really like it, except the background makes the wording hard to read (well, for me anyway). Other than that, it's a nice, pleasing to the eye blog.

  14. I just posted about this giveaway on my blog.

    Forgot to tell you love your blog name. My grandmother used to love the poem "When I get old I shall wear purple" (not sure I got the title right). Anyways your blog name reminds me of her.

    God Bless
