I'm turning the big 2-8 this Friday and I thought I'd celebrate with a little giveaway! I put together a little array of goodies for one lucky reader!


Here is what you'll get if you win:

- A grey linen Bella Pouch made by me
- A matching wallet made by me
- A $10 Starbucks gift card

- An Essie Nail Polish in Bikini So Teeny

To enter, just leave me a comment telling me what your favorite book is or a book you'd like to recommend to me. I just finished a great series called Infernal Devices and I'm in the market for a new book!

As usual, my followers get an extra entry. And you get a third entry if you like Pink Stitches on Facebook!

Please leave a comment for each entry and don't forget to include your email address if it's not available on your profile. I'll choose a winner on my birthday, June 22nd! Good luck!!

Birthday Giveaway Winner!

Let me start off by saying that I am 27 years old this year! Alot of you thought I was 30 and that might be my fault. Ok, it's totally my fault! My sister informed me that Varsity Blues came out when we were in middle school!!! I don't know what I was thinking saying that I went to see it my senior year. I'm sure many of you googled the release date and got very confused. Sorry about that! If you only left one comment and guessed incorrectly, I counted your entry anyway. So everyone had a chance to win!! Also I think the fact that I married really young might've thrown some of you off. I was a mere 20 years old when I said "I do." *sigh* So young and in love.

Okay, okay, I'll stop talking now and announce the winner. Random.org chose...

Birthdays Are Special

Bonnie R. (^_^)


Birthdays should be a special time
as everyone should know.
It means living another year of living
another year to grow.

Birthdays should be a special time
for each to then reflect,
On the past and on the present
and what the future might expect.


Birthdays should be a special time
to start anew,
Setting goals and working to make
each and every dream come true.

Happy Birthday, Bonnie

I know You're Great! xoxoxo


Congratulations! And a very special thank you to everyone who participated in my little birthday celebration. I had a most wonderful day!

**GIVEAWAY CLOSED**

It's my birthday and I'll give if I want to!!

But we'll get to that in a minute. First, I wanted to share some EXCITING news with you!! Last week, while I was in El Paso, I was contacted by Jenny from Whole Port. Whole Port is a company based in Hong Kong that sells beautiful fabrics, lace trims, dollhouse miniatures, knitting supplies, buttons, jewelry, moulds, you name it! They are super cheap too because it's all made right there and they're wholesale prices! And guess who they asked to represent them!! Yours truly! Introducing, my fabulous sponsor...



Right now, Whole Port is hosting a crafting competition called Creativity Expo. Basically, WholePort wants to see who can make the most interesting crafts out of its crafting supplies, so it will send you one of nine crafting supplies (including everything from polymer clay beads to lace trim to origami paper) completely for free. Then you can make a craft incorporating the supplies and post a photo of it on the WholePort facebook wall for a chance to win one of ten $50 cash coupons to www.wholeport.com- the Creativity Expo winners will be determined by the photos with the most "likes" on facebook.

The deadline to request your supplies is July 9th and the contest will run through to August 1st. Whole Port is also offering all Pink Stitches readers 10% off their entire store! Just enter CRAFTFUN10 at checkout. This offer will be valid until July 31st.

Now, I mentioned a birthday giveaway right?? I made this little zipper pouch just for YOU! It's made with linen blend Echino Japanese Import Fabric and lined in a beautiful plum purple.







After I made it, I discovered it's the perfect size for Sharpies, gel pens, highlighters, etc. Are you a writing tool junkie like me?? I must have ten baskets full of stuff to write with. I love PERMANENT MARKERS! I'm just weird that way.

So here's how to enter to win this zippered pouch:

1) Leave a comment in this post. Tell me Happy Birthday, what you love about Pink Stitches or just let me know how plain awesome I am!

2) For an extra entry... You must correctly guess how old I am today! Want some hints?? Hmm..

- I'm between 20-30

- I've been married for six years

- My son is two and a half years old

- My high school graduation song was "Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)"

- I went to see Varsity Blues in theatres my senior year

That's as far as I'll go! Thank you guys for stopping by today to celebrate this awesome day with me! You.are.the.best!

**EDITED TO SAY** Oops, I forgot to mention that the giveaway will remain open until midnight on Friday and I will announce the winner on Saturday!
