Okay, so my posting hasn't been quite vim-like as I had promised. But! I am posting now right this minute! And that is exciting folks! Now instead of posting about the truly thrilling stuff like boogers, scabs, and tantrums, I'd like to announce that I am hosting the THIRD ROUND OF GIFTY!
Gifty?! Really?! Truly?!
Yes, yes folks. It's true. {bows}
So, um, what's Gifty?
Gifty is a fantastic, friendly gift exchange between web pals. The purpose of this project is to unite the weblog community by spreading cheer, love, and fun through the mail!
And here's the nitty gritty:
Theme: From the Heart
Monetary Allotment: $7.00 - $10.00 (this is a suggestion, not a requirement) + shipping
Sign-Up Deadline: Friday, February 3, 2006
Shipping Window: February 6 - 13th (this means that you should try your very, very best to get your package shipped off during this time).
Maximum # of participants: 100
Interested? Go and visit the Gifty! website to find out more info! Oh, and be sure to steal this guy too:
*** While I'm at it, I thought I'd show you two new collage noteflats that I've created for my new Life Stories Noteflats! I love 'em! And you might too!
And because I'm so thrilled to be writing today, I thought I'd throw in my 1 + 1 = 3 sale again! for all you blog readers! Woo hoo! Buy any two noteflats and get one set FREEEEEEE!! Simply tell me which noteflat set you'd like for free in the special notes section upon checking out! And don't be shy!! Take advantage of the sale!!! I'll run this special until Valentine's Day!
And oh yes! I've been meaning to post about my custom stationery too. I've had these guys on my site for quite sometime, but, er, you know. Things happen that prevent me from blogging. Things like boogers and scabs and tantrums. He he. You thought I forgot about the thrilling stuff, didn't you?
Oh, and just so you know. This is the second time I'm writing this post. . .my darn Mac closed the browser window just as I was about to publish (okay, actually I closed the window by mistake, but can we just blame the machine?). Instead of crawling into my warm, cozy bed, I thought I'd rewrite the post just for y'all. Now that's love people!
ETA: Holy Smokes, ladies! The spaces for Gifty! are filling up fast!!! If you're thinking about participating. . . go sign up now! :)
Sorry gang. . . there is no "continuation" of this post. Typepad is being wacky. And I'm tired. But thanks for clicking anyway!
ahhhhhhh, the joys of being a night owl:)
I'm the first to post! I'm headed over to gifty!

I'm a little confused. If we joined when you first announced Gifty do we still need to send our info to you? Or do we only need to send our info to you if we wish to join a particular swap?

The theme to gifty is Bon Jovi? "Shot through the HEART, and you're to blame.." Oh wait, did I misread that?
