Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

January 04, 2013

Another "Freebie" for you...

Hi  Everybody,

This is the continuing saga of the wrong Spellbinders from Scrap-Mart.

They have given me an apology and offered me a voucher to spend in their shop.... and told me to keep the dies.

So because I now have two sets of the same dies I am offering you the chance this month to win the extra set.

The Grand Decorative Ovals   produce  quite a large oval ... which can be used to create the whole card shape or used to add matting and layering effects to your designs.

It is a set well worth having and the offer will run throughout January ... so if you would like to be the winner then add your name to the box.  The same rule applies as the last give away and that is no duplicate entries please.

If you add your name more than once it will be removed to keep it fair to everybody.  And if you are new to the Blog and wanted to become a follower then that would be very nice too.

Leave me a comment and let me know that you have entered or what you think of the blog itself.

If you don't have a blog it is not a problem  ... just leave the URL BOX BLANK  ... but please leave your name.

Good Luck 

Hugs


This is a really beautiful set of Grand Nestabilities but you will need a die cutting machine with a larger area to use them.... so a good excuse to buy the Grand Calibur then !!

  4. Hi Christina, I cannot believe the problems you have had with this company. One to steer well clear from! You think that because you have used Paypal that it would be okay, because lets face it, you would certainly expect to receive the goods within 45 days!!! Well I'm sorry for your problems but I'm so pleased that you have been generous enough to offer it to your followers. I visit your website continually for ideas. I have CASE'd that gorgeous card you made for your daughter with Venetian accents and motifs. When I am able to get some matching ribbon I will post it on my blog with a link to yours - which I did when I made your gorgeous origami box and lid. Thanks for the inspiration. Christine x

  8. Hi Christina, and a very happy new year to you. I have been reading all about your troubles with this company, it seems unbelievable. Thankfully it seems to have worked in your favour (and ours too) so sorry that your dies were too late for your Christmas card, (I love what you did with the Christmas Tree die, by the way).Anyway thank you for the chance to win these amazing dies, I already own a grand calibur so these would be a lovely addition, if I were lucky enought, well here goes fingers crossed. Thanks again. xxxx Linda xxxx
