I’m proud to be a little part of this wonderful effort by the handmade community to raise money for Haiti Earthquake Relief. Silent auction held by Jen over at IndieFixx is a very easy way to help out! You bid on the items (which change every day) in the comments and if you’re a winner, you pay through paypal and get the item in the mail without paying for shipping. 100% of the proceeds to go to the Red Cross International Response.
So, today is the day that my Knowledge Tree print with a 3D cutout is up for grabs, so I thought maybe you’d like to help out, at least by spreading the word!

Please, help me promote this worthy effort! Any and all emails, Twitts and “words of mouth” are greatly appreciated!

The WordPress counter tells me that this is a post #50, so what’s a better way to celebrate than with a good old giveaway?! And I have just the right stuff to give!

I have an interesting pair of things that are as different as it gets but also as matching as I could make them ;) Intrigued? No need to be. I have a curious “His and Hers” combination, that consists of Doodled Aliens rock and a hand-painted Tshirt (women’s L) with similar design. Intricate little doodles in Black, Gold and Silver markers. I used special Fabric Markers on the tee and permanent black and metallic ones on the rock.


Interested? Here’s what you can do to get both, just for participating:

*note* Each step will earn you an entry point. Winner will be chosen randomly from all the entries received.

• Leave a comment in this blog, linking to your favorite item in either of my Etsy shops (TwiMom and Doodlage)

• Twitt about this Giveaway and post a link to your Twitter page (I’ll be sure to follow you too, btw) in a comment here.

• Blog about this Giveaway or post about it on any relevant forum/site and show me a link to it.

• Put a link to my Blog on your site/blog and tell me about it.

• Stumble, Digg or save to Del.icio.us MY ENTIRE BLOG (not just this entry) and let me know in a separate comment.

So, all in all you can get up to 5 entries. The more you get, the more chances that you will be the lucky winner of my handmade goodies :) The last comment can be added by the end of the month. So at 11:59pm January 31st your carriage will turn back into a pumpkin will be your last chance to enter. I will contact the winner personally for the shipping address, so make sure when you leave your comments, I can see your email somewhere in there :) THANKS and GOOD LUCK!
