Royalty, Anniversary, Giveaway

No card today. Just sharing some random stuff and pics. :) Oh, and a giveaway on the bottom.

This week sure started off wonderfully. I came home from work to find my Stamping Royalty package from Paper Crafts waiting at the front door. I think I started boogieing (is that a word??) right there and then. Yep... pretty sure I did.

People... it's like Christmas in May!! Here's a look at some of the goodies. I am a firm believer in sharing when I win something, so I'll be sharing some of the stuff with my girls.



And, let's see what else in the package... hm... oh yeah, my crown. Tee.. hee... Of course, I have to try it on right away and snap a quick pic with my royal prince, or should I say my wiggly prince, Eli.



And, I also get a canvas bag with this badge on the front. :)



'Nuff about me. I want to do a shout out to my brother Jeff and his lovely wife, Gina as they are celebrating their 17th anniversary (and 25 years of togetherness). They're high school sweetheart and dated for 8 years before they finally get married. And, yes they're one of those couple that still happily in love after all  those years. And, they're celebrating in style in the city of love, Paris!!

Jeff & Gina... happy 17th anniversary!!

Happy anniversary to both of you. Wishing you many, many  more years  of happiness. Love you both.

Now, how about a giveaway. Since, I've been so blessed to win quite a few new goodies, I want to share them with you as well.

I'm giving away 2 sets of stamp & some gorgeous May Arts ribbons. One is Lawn Fawn Lunar Light set and the other is a surprise!! Simply leave a comment on today's post by midnight Wednesday, 5/17/2012 and I'll pick a winner on Thursday. Share the giveaway on FB or twitter and leave another comment letting me know you did that for an extra entry. You never know, I might add other stuff to the package. :)

Lawn Fawn Lunar Light set

Good luck and have a blessed day.
