This morning, quite by chance, I realised that it is a year today since I started writing this little blog of mine. I have thoroughly enjoyed writing each and every post, and whilst it may not be the biggest or most popular blog around, I have 'met' some lovely people along the way and have made many new 'friends' from all around the globe. My blog finally exposed my card making and crafting to the big wide world, and gave me the impetus to open my Etsy shop. In turn, that may not be the busiest or most overrun online store, but it serves as a great gallery for my work and has no doubt brought me a few customers along the way.So, to say thank you to all of you who have supported me and my blogging adventure, here it is, my 'Happy (Blog) Birthday' giveaway! I've decided to make the prize one of my super cute papercut pictures, and there will be more lovely things all the way from Israel thrown in as well, including one or two 'Handmade in Israel' greetings cards.
But there is a tiny catch. I want to make you work for your goodies. That and I like doing market research via my blog. Tell me your favourite 'Handmade in Israel' item in my shop and why it is your favourite. And, if you would like to be in the draw twice, mention this giveaway on your blog and link to this post!
Good luck with the giveaway. The winner will be drawn on the morning of Sunday 17th May (which just so happens to be my real birthday!).
the 17th is also my sister's birthday!! she turns 40 this year so a big celebration!

Congratulations on your blogversary Lisa! It is hard to choose which shop items I like the best - it would probably be the Monkey and Penguin papercuts, closely followed by the Easter cards (love those daffodils!)
ReplyDeleteThanking you for your valuable comment.and if possible pls forward my blog's link to the people who are interested in it
ReplyDeleteHi Lisa! I especially love your treasure boxes! They are lovely! I hope you are well and I appologise for being such a bad bloggy frind

Congratulations on your 12 months!!!! Congratulations! I will link in my post lattern in the week.
Congrats on your blog birthday and Happy (early) Birthday.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading your blog. My favorites are still your bar & bat mitzvah cards.
Someday, I hope to make it to Israel.
Happy blogaversary Lisa! A year of faithful blogging is something to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteMy favorites that are currently in your store is (still) the penguin cut out. I also like the "Easter cards," because I think the daffodils are fantastic. As a consumer, though, I'm always much more apt to buy a print or a wall hanging than a card.
ALSO: I'm blogging about your giveaway with a link to your blog and shop; the post will publish tomorrow morning!
Thank you for offering a giveaway!
Happy Happy Happy Happy Birthday! Now as for a favourite.....I loved your springtime cards. Daffodils are a lovely thing to see when the sun's starting to fade in your part of the world! Good luck with your giveaway. I hope you get to meet some lovely people! Jen

Hi.
ReplyDeleteI like the japanese woman. I think you really captured that beautifully!
The Japanese Woman Papercut is my favorite. It's really lovely.
ReplyDeleteHi there Lisa, CONGRATULATIONS on your 1 year blog anniversary! So happy for you =]
ReplyDeleteMy favorite from your shop would have to be the monkey picture, I think it is because my Magoo monkey is my favorite toy I have made and I just adore monkeys!
The Little penguin papercut picture is my favourite, love the colours and textures of the design. I just came cause Kelly @ Don't Look Now sent me over. You have some gorgeous designs in your shop, but I do like lots of colour in whatever I am making.
ReplyDeleteHappy blog-versary :-)
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to choose one favorite, but if I have to, it comes down to Japanese Woman Papercut Picture. Boy, how I admire your papercut skill.
