This week's awesome giveaway is from a company I approached called Macaroni and Glue. Kelly is giving away this Handmade Notecard set!

CONTEST CLOSED



I came across her notecards before I ever started The Gift Closet and fell in love with them. I've toyed with the idea of making my own, but why, when I can buy adorable ones like these?

I asked Kelly what inspired her to start making her notecards and here is what she had to say...

"I've actually never been particularly "artsy-craftsy," but I started making cards and gifts after my daughter was born and money was tight without a second income. For my sister's baby shower, rather than buy an expensive gift from the registry, I created some fairly elaborate thank you cards and put them together as a set for her. People seemed to love them, and I started getting orders for more custom cards - announcements, holiday cards, thank you cards… I was absolutely overwhelmed by the positive response. I spent the last half of 2007 filling custom orders, and once the holidays were over, I realized that paper had become a bit of an obsession. I decided to open the shop in February after discovering Etsy and spending a month or so in design heaven getting my notecard line ready."


CONTEST CLOSED

Feel free to email this contest to friends & family by clicking on the small white envelope below. Thank you & have a blessed day!

P.S. You can now find me over at La Dolce Vita too!
