Ok, so two days ago I turned 35! Three and a half whole decades of existence.... wow! It seems sooooo old and yet I still feel like a little kid in reality.... I mean, I can't seriously be old enough to be a fully fledged adult, can I? Still, I do believe that age, like anything in life, is as much or as little as you make of it. As I said in my birthday post, life is such a grand adventure! I expect that I'll be as curious and flawed and happy and confused and still be learning, growing and changing right up til I'm 100 - and I do plan on living that long! Imagine my blog post to celebrate my 100th birthday...
The Giveaway!
Now, I suppose I should get on with today's exciting event - the Mega Birthday Giveaway!!! A few of my lovely sponsors have chipped in with goodies to giveaway to you, my beloved readers, and of course Mr Gorgeous Husband himself has also thrown in some of his stunning photography! So here's what's up for grabs......
From me here at Red Parka Designs - An original art print (your choice from my online store) and one of my mystery bundles of greeting cards.
From Wombat's Picnic - This gorgeous handmade embroidered pin cushion featuring Australian native flowers (Bottle Brush). So gorgeous.
Jennifer from Grits & Moxie is giving our lucky winner a month's free advertising on her fabulous blog with a Super Dooper Sized Ad!
From Bright Wings Of Summer, these two gorgeous original art greetings cards.
From Gang of Elk, the business of my talented husband, we have an original photographic print with matching handmade scrabble tile pendant.
And last but not least, we have a stunning Pirdy tree brooch to giveaway and a cute pair or Apooki tea cup earrings!
All of this will go to one grand winner! However, because it's my birthday giveaway and I love you all so much, there will also be a runner up prize of a Red Parka Mystery Card Bundle and a randomly chosen by me A5 Red Parka print!
So, get your entries in below! The giveaway will close next Thursday..... goodluck! Jen x

ReplyDeleteAs for turning 35, I'll be doing the same in a few weeks. I think it's a good age to be... it does feel a bit adulty though.
