The One with the 900th Post Giveaway!


Thursday, February 24, 2011

Holy crow how has it already been 100 posts? I feel like I just did my 800th post giveaway yesterday! Time is seriously flying by these days. But anyways, enough of the jibber jabber, you wanna see what's up for grabs don't ya?

I'm purging my scrapbook supplies so we'll start with all of that fun stuff. One lucky winner will receive 345 pieces of patterned paper. I repeat THREE HUNDRED AND FORTY FIVE pieces of double sided, super high quality patterned paper, all by my favorite scrapbooking company - American Crafts. These are all from retired lines so it's out with the old and in with the new!
Photobucket

Next, five different pairs of decorative scissors. Somehow I have doubles of all of these, which I don't need, but maybe you do! It's funny how trends come and go in the scrapbooking world. Like three years ago these were the sum of all evil and now they're making their way back onto layouts to trim the edges of cardstock and patterned paper and such. Trimming photos with these is still a big no-no though - for now!
Photobucket

Next, 15 cute little cans of embellishments called House by American Crafts. Some are felt, some are plastic, some are paper, some are flowers, some are snowflakes. ALL are cute.
Photobucket

Three cards that I made for various assignments/projects:
Photobucket

24 little bottles of Martha Stewart Crafts GLITTER! I've really tried to like glitter. I honestly have. But I can't. Hopefully you do :)
Photobucket

Five different sheets of Dear Lizzy Enchanted laser-cut patterned paper from, you guessed it, American Crafts. These are sweet cuz they're so versatile. You can spray over them and create a really cool mask. You can cut parts of them out, you can use them as they are. Think outside the box!
Photobucket

For the stamp enthusiast - four sets of stamps, a black ink pad, black and white embossing power, and an embossing heat gun. Not even gonna say who they're by cuz you already know :)
Photobucket

Seven different packs of layered embellishments - aka Details and Delights by American Crafts. These are awesome cuz they look like they took forever to make but they come pre-made, but who can tell when they're on your projects!?
Photobucket

A Give Thanks plaque I made for the Oct/Nov 2010 issue of Simply Handmade.
Photobucket

A set of embellished cork coasters - also something I made for the Oct/Nov 2010 issue of Simply Handmade.
Photobucket

Blogging is a great form of journaling for the whole wide world to read, but for those who are all about physical journals and hand writing and privacy, this book is just for you!
Photobucket

A copy of the premier issue of Cricut Magazine. This'll be worth millions some day :)
Photobucket

Okay, onto the fashion items.

Season One of Project Runway! It's been watched through twice, but everything is in mint condish. Start from the beginning of this addicting reality show!
Photobucket

Mini purse bag by Free People.
Photobucket

Super beautiful (fake - but who needs to know?) necklace!
Photobucket

Is it a scarf? Or a belt? Either way it's sure to be a hit in your wardrobe!
Photobucket

And last but certainly not least, a PaigeBook. I took pictures of the book right after I finished it yesterday when the sun was still up, but then after the sun set I decided I wasn't finished and tried something I've never done before and now I'm obsessed with. So here are the before pics:
Photobucket
It's 5.5 x 7".
Photobucket
It's got wooden covers.
Photobucket
It's a copic binding so it lays flat and you can see how it's sewn together.
Photobucket
I used patterned papers by Sassafras.
Photobucket
All the papers have really cool decorative edges which makes turning the pages fiercely fun.
Photobucket
It's totally hip and vintage and colorful and lovely - if I do say so myself :)
Photobucket
I used green DMC embroidery floss to bind it together.
Photobucket
It's the first time I didn't refer to instructions to make it. I finally know how to make these by memory!
Photobucket

And here is what the book looks like now (see the bottom right corner):
Photobucket
I poked holes in the shape of a deer to add to the vintage feel of this album. I found the deer Sassafras uses on their patterned papers, printed it, then used it as a template to poke the holes. I really wanted to keep going and poke clouds and stars and a sun, but moderation in all things. I also was thinking about coloring the deer in with paint?? So many possibilities!!!! I can't wait to try out this technique again on a book for myself and throw moderation out the window.
Photobucket
UPDATED: I couldn't stop thinking about painting the deer white so I just did. Now check it out:
Photobucket
Not gonna lie, this is going to be a hard book to give away! I think it's my favorite I've ever made. Maybe I can work out a deal with the winner :)

  1. Hi Paige, it's Stasia Blackhurst. Ummm...we were in the same ward (R2) for a while and were in Young Women's together :) I meandered over to your blog from my sister's (Marissa) and I LOVE IT! You are such a talented little crafty lady! Good luck to me!

  2. Oh my Goddess...now that's just an AMAZING giveaway!!! If international "appliers" are ok, count me in! :)
    Actually I can't really remember how I found your blog.. I started scrapbooking in 2008 and have been following your blog and life since that time, too, I think.. I guess I've found you either by a company blog (design team) or a fellow scrapper, your style really made you stand out then since you're always using so many different papers and your layouts are so colourful :) Love that!

    ReplyDelete
  3. I found you a few weeks ago through the American Crafts Studio blog - they're my favourite scrapbooking company too!

    I then spent a lovely afternoon reading your blog archives and getting inspired. Thanks for the incredibly generous giveaway!

    ReplyDelete

    Thanks for the chance to win.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Paige! I'm so glad to find your blog. I was just blog-hoppin' and found it. I think I was just on the American Crafts blog, but I have about a dozen browsers open right now, so who really knows. I wish NP would but a directory of contributors' and editors' blogs in the back like they used to for online IDs. Blogs are all the rage after all! :-) Anyway, I'm definitely adding you to my Google Reader. I'll be back to see what you're up to and to check on that little cutie too! A-DORE-ABLE!

    ReplyDelete
  87. Oh my heck...that's just about the CUTEST book ever!!!!! And your giveaways just get better and better. I LOVE American Crafts and we don't have any good scrapbook stores around here that carry it. :( (They don't carry anything good...so it's online and Micheal's for me).

    I have no idea how I found your blog. I think it might have been through an American Crafts blog hop once a long time ago, and I've been hooked ever since. I've enjoyed following your life and getting inspiration from you, so thank you! :)

    ReplyDelete
  88. I wish I knew about your blog when you first started with post #1! I found you somehow...probably through the CARDS blog. I just love all your photos of the family! Fox is getting so big and you are such an amazing mom/wife! I know it:) I can tell from your posts:)

    I always think of two things when I visit your blog--1. I wish I knew you lived in LA/Hollywood when I was out there! How fun would it have been to meet! Now that I wrote that...you do live there...right? LOL! 2. How I thought your April's fools joke was real! that was the funniest:) Good one:)

    Hope you are doing well! THANKS for such an amazing giveaway. YOU ROCK:) Here's to 900 more posts;)

    ReplyDelete
  89. What an amazing giveaway! I absolutely love everything that's up for grabs!

    I found your blog through Elle's Studio when you were on their design team. I love your style and reading about your life :)

    ReplyDelete
  90. Miss Paige...we're not related....except in papercrafting sisterhood - wooo! I'm just a fat girl in Boise who submits to the magazines and sometimes you're kind enough to send me a little e-mail saying you want to snatch up one of my little cards :)

    My little 6-year old girl and I have gone through your post and already divided who is getting what from your giveaway - LOL Some for her, some for me, some for me and her to enjoy, some for to take with us when we go camping, and Project Runway to watch together! :)

  92. My goodness, that is quite the giveaway! I've been trying to be more crafty lately, so I'm in! And though we've never actually met, we get to email and chat all the time about the many details of getting these magazines put together and written. I know you as the amazing person who essentially keeps everything running. :)

    ReplyDelete
  93. You know I just started reading your blog a few months ago and I cannot remember how I found you but I am very glad I did. I love your blog and have enjoyed all your posts! Congrats on 900!

  94. hi paige, I originally found your blog linked from AC when you posted your ' movie review' book and I've been hooked since! I also had signed up for your bookbinding class and was super bummed when it fell thru. Still hoping that you'll try it again. Needless to say I seriously need that book lol and all that embossing goodness and... well everything :)

  95. Hi Paige! it's your favorite cousin, Maren! I love your blog and I love you! I'll admit I haven't been the best at reading, but now I'm addicted and I check it every day! Can't wait tosee you and Fox soon!
