The countdown to Christmas

I can't believe that we're turning our thoughts to Christmas again! It seems like it was only yesterday we were scoffing on plum pudding and custard. And here we are, gearing up to do it all over again. Where has this year gone?

I see that Ali Edwards is gearing up to do her December Daily project. Who's doing it this year? I contemplated it. Briefly. But, you know? I'd already completed three Christmas layouts by the middle of October. I'm starting to feel a bit over it already. Lol. And I still have a stack more Christmas themed pages to make for various assignments. So no December Daily for me, I don't think.

What I do have, though, are some Christmas packs to give away. Due to a slight mix-up, Aussie Scrap Source sent me rather an oversupply of BasicGrey's Eskimo Kisses products a while back. And thanks to their generosity, that product is up for grabs here on my blog :).

I have three kits. Each contains five different patterned papers from the range, one lace doily, and a sheet of coordinating letter stickers.

Note: The images are examples only. Each pack contains different papers and may not necessarily contain the papers illustrated.

It's such a cute range. Let me know in the comments below if you'd like a pack.

And, while I'm in a give-away spirit, I also have around 20 pieces of 6x6 paper from a BasicGrey Jovial paper pad along with a variety of coordinating embellishments left over from another project. Does anyone want them to kick start their Christmas card making?

To be eligible, leave me a comment below, indicating whether you'd like an Eskimo Kisses or a Jovial pack. I'll leave this open until the end of the month. (Sorry, only open to Australian residents, due to postage charges.)

Have a great day!
Kathie

I'm so in love with the Jovial Range and would love it for my Christmas Tags this year. Thanks for the chance in your give away!

Christams? Already? Are you serious?! I almost died when I saw Christmas decorations in Woolies way back in Sept. Absolutely outrageous!
You are very generous giving away your goodies : )

I don't recall seeing the eskimo range...maybe my lack of getting out in the cold weather down here didn't help?! That range would be perfect for my photos that I have of my time in Germany over Christmas in 1998...i do believe I looked as rugged up as the little girl on the papers!

No December daily for me as we will be away sunning er shopping in Penang for most of December. Lovely giveaway Kathie but dont count me in as i have a stack of BG Eskimo Kisses-funnily enough i was making some cards with them the other day.
Thanks, Linda

Marie said...

Kathie, you are so generous. Thank you.

I loved to win the jovial range. I've been making Christmas cards for the school fete and have just about exhausted all of my Christmas type paper.

Marelize said...

That's very generous Kathie. I love the Jovial range and think it will be perfect for cards. I can't believe we're that close to Christmas already. I better get my behind into gear. Got so much to do before I can even think of the terrifying 'C' word. :)

I haven't quite decided whether I'm going to tackle the December Daily. Although, I do think it's a fabulous idea..... and I have started making some covers for it!! I figure that if I am going to do it, I need to be as organised as possible since it's a little bit work intensive in December along with everything else!
And I did also think it might be a good way to use up a lot of my overflowing Christmas supplies. So while I appreciate your amazing generosity, and I do think these collections are fabulous, I don't really need them - so give them to someone else who does!!

It's a lovely range, very whimsical, which suits your style to a "T". I can't believe it is nearly Xmas either, but I say that every year, LOL !!
I would like to put my name down for your kind offer , please.
I really like your work.

What a generous offer, Kathie! I loved Eskimo Kisses - I used that range last year, it is so cute! In that case, I would love to have a chance of some of the Jovial range :)

Can you believe it is only 8 weeks till Christmas? wow.
