Happy Monday, folks! I’m here to share two posts I’m excited about this lovely Monday morning– a tutorial AND a giveaway! WHAT?! How sweet is that?

First, learn how to turn your 5-minute hearts into a vertical garland on Sweetly Yours.

Then, head on over to my girl thursday and enter to win a custom doily blanket! Wahoooo! It’s been about a month since my last doily blanket giveaway, so I think it’s about time.

I love spreading the doily blanket love. If you don’t win, you can always snag yours in the shop. But hurry–prices will be going up early February! If you can crochet, make your own with my patterns in Lace Love.

I hope these two posts help you kick off your week with a bang!

Giveaway: 100 postcards from Next Day Flyers

***************THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!***************

The winner is Kimberly of Oikos Handmade!

—————————————————————————————————————————————

Hello, friends! I hope you all had a beautiful weekend. I am here with a wonderful giveaway from Next Day Flyers.

If you are a shop owner like me, you include a little something extra with your orders. Along with my business card, I typically include a postcard with a greeting and sometimes a customer appreciation code for future orders. I have been making my own by having my photos printed on 4×6 paper and using double-sided tape to attach an index card to that back. It’s hardly professional and I’ve admittedly been looking for alternatives.

I love the idea of getting a set of postcards to include with every order. They would have all the information I want to provide to my customers but still include a lovely photo.

This is where Next Day Flyers comes in. They offer postcard printing on 14pt cardstock in a wide variety of sizes. They also promise to have all print ready files that were completed and approved by 6 PM PST printed and ready to ship out the next business day. Talk about fast!

They aren’t just for business either. If you have any sort of announcement or promotion you want to provide to a group of people, postcards are the perfect way to do so! You could even get a bunch printed with blank backs to personalize yourself for each of your kindred.

The giveaway today is for one hundred (100!) 4″x6″ postcards in full color on the front and black and white on the back. Ground shipping anywhere in the Continental U.S. is included. International readers may enter, but will need to provide shipping costs. You can upload a print-ready file or use their Online Design Center to create a layout.

To enter:

Leave a comment letting us know how you would use the cards if you win. Do you have a business you’d like to promote? Is there a special gathering coming up that you need invites for? Let us know! (mandatory)
