~ ♥ 100 Followers Giveaway ♥ ~

~ ♥ NOW CLOSED ♥ ~
Well lovely ladies, the time has come for another giveaway, I love doing these!

This giveaway is to celebrate my 100 followers, and is a little thank you to all of you for following and commenting on my little blog and for the encouragement that you give me to get off my bum and make things.

As I have been obsessed with Cath Kidston recently, I thought that my giveaway could be CK themed; with that in mind I give you my little pile of goodies:

This includes:
A Cath Kidston shopper bag made for Easy Living Magazine,
Cath Kidston Wild Rose shower gel and body lotion, (I have had these before and they smell divine),
A handcrafted Kandipandi padded mini cushion in CK Spray Flowers cotton duck,
A handcrafted Kandipandi bookmark made with CK fabric,
A handcrafted Kandipandi Makeup Bag in CK Spray Flowers cotton duck (I made this yesterday especially for this giveaway).

I will obviously add some chocolates in there too, but I can’t buy them yet as I will eat them and have to replace them (probably several times over).

Simple Rules:
1). To enter the giveaway you don't have to be a follower but I do need to be able to contact you, just leave a comment here and I will add you to the list.
2). If you have your own blog and if you wish; please feel free to copy my giveaway button for your sidebar and I will give you an additional entry (please let me know if you do so I can add you twice)!

~ I will draw the winner in two weeks time on the 28th June 2010.
That's it I think, please spread the word ~ and be lucky x
Edited to add: for those that have asked this is how to add buttons to your blog;
First copy the button from the blog, (right click, save picture as)and save it on your computer.
Then in your blogger account, from the dashboard,
~ click into layout,
~ on the right hand side about half way down select add a gadget,
~ scroll down to the one that says picture and click on the +
~ browse from your computer to add the photo,
~ copy and paste the blog address (from the top address bar) that the button is from into the link box (delete the http:// that is already there first)
~ save and you should be done.
You can then rearrange where the button sits on your sidebar by moving that box down to where you want it, preview to check you are happy, then save.
I hope that is some help, it may not be the easiest way but it's how I do it.

~ ♥ Back Soon ♥ ~

Quick Little Cath Kidston Fabric Make

During an online discussion with the lovely Sue last week I got to thinking about how to protect fabric and I was wondering if it could be laminated.

I envisaged that it might well catch fire but I tried it anyway, and it worked!

I had some scraps of Cath Kidston cotton duck left over from the spare handle from the Sew Bag I made, I chopped them up and laminated them.

I added some ribbons and some of my beloved buttons and lo and behold my CK Bookmarks:


p.s that is one of my favourite books it was a gift from a friend 12 years ago and it is still in my top 10, when I am looking for something to read it's the book I pick up the most.

p.s. I have just noticed that every post this week has in some way been related to Cath Kidston, you would think I was on commission, but I promise I'm not I just love her stuff!

Back Soon ♥
