Spring clean pt 3
















This week I have some goodies on the theme of Autumn/Fall and Winter. There are lots of Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas stickers, rub-ons, 8x8 inch papers and die cuts. I have also included some spooky images that I photographed myself and made into collage sheets. The images are ATC sized with a few that are small enough to make into inchies. Once again, leave a comment along with your e-mail if you want to be in with a chance of winning this parcel. Or if you don't want to put your e-mail online, leave a comment then e-mail me at gsmcmurray[at]ukonline.co.uk and let me know which comment is yours. I will use a random number generator to pick a winner on Sunday 29th March. Good luck.

Just a few pictures to break the monotony until Sunday. I have been making lots of cards recently, a few of which are here. Lots of Spring colours - greens and pinks. There are a few inchies too similarly clothed in Spring inspiration.

Thank you to everyone who took part in my giveaway. So many lovely comments so thank you one and all. Now, onto the important bit - the winners. I used Random.org to pick to winners :

Winner no. 2 - Linda: What an excellent giveaway! Sign me up!

Congratulations to you both. I will e-mail you once I have posted this so if either of you don't get the e-mail drop me a line at the e-mail on my original giveaway post and we can sort out delivery details. If, by some chance, either of the prizes are not claimed I will do another drawing from the remaining comments. For those who didn't win this time I will be posting an Asian themed giveaway later today. Why not give it another shot.

Spring clean pt 1





A fortnight ago my art/craft drawers collapsed - again. That was the second time in a matter of months. I had to face it - it was time for a clear out. I have hosts of paper and stuff that I don't use very often and it just sits in my drawers collecting dust. So I thought I would start to do a giveaway as I worked through the drawers. I have already donated some of the stuff to worthy causes but I have so much that I figured there were a few people out in blogland who might be able to use them too. Over the coming weeks I will put up a few things according to theme. I have some Asian theme items, festive themed ones (Christmas/Halloween/Thanksgiving all in one bundle) and possibly a general theme. However, the first one is Spring theme. Take a look at the pictures to see what's on offer. I have 17 sheets of 6x6 inch patterned papers by K & Co., some stamped floral images by Crafty Individuals, paper flowers, cute die cut animals, floral paper lace, peel offs (which I forgot to photograph) and some jewelled embellishments. If you want to be in with a chance of winning one of two packages then leave a comment for me along with your e-mail address (or if you don't want to put your e-mail online, leave a comment then e-mail me at gsmcmurray[at]ukonline.co.uk and let me know which comment is yours). I will use a random number generator to pick two winners on Sunday 15th March.
