weekend greeting giveaway {winner}

Last week's weekend greeting winner is ... ShellyW!  I had a hard time deciding, as all the comments were deserving ... but adoption has a special place in my heart.  My one and only godchild was adopted from Guatemala.  She just celebrated her very first 'Forever Family' day, and I feel so blessed to be a part of her life.

Shelly, please email me your mailing address and I'll get the cards out to you {after the new year, as I'll be traveling 'til then}.

And since I love posting a photo when I can ... I thought I'd leave y'all with a peek from my new office.  Check out the wallpaper {I love, love, love it!!}.  I first saw it here and knew I had to have it.  Do you love it?  It's from Graham & Brown and you can buy it here.

Abbie, just email me your address by Monday night and I'll put the card in the mail to you.  Thanks everyone for 'playing!'

So ... a little bit about my trip (in case ya' all are still reading and care}.  Miss teenager is mine from a previous marriage and it's important to me to spend some alone time with her.  I wanted to take a girls trip and asked her where she'd like to go ... LA was her answer ... basically a mission to find the Jonas Brothers {who we're seeing in concert, at home, on Sunday ... and we have backstage passes ... this is going to be absolutely priceless to watch how she reacts to meeting her future husband ... Nick, she's all about Nick}.

She's been reading more and more about celebrities and famous people and I think she's getting a bug! And since I'm more likely to know the names of Gwenyth, Halle, and Jennifer's kids, than say ... the abbreviation for Maine ... I figured a trip to LA would be fun.  We're having a great time, but no celeb spotting yet ... oh! actually, the girls {we brought taylor's bff along ...} saw lil' romeo.  {p.s., the 'star' cookies are from the hotel ... cool, huh?}

And about that bug Taylor's getting, she's been asking if she could try modeling.  Actually, she asked what would be the easiest way to 'get famous' {are you laughing?}.  And since she doesn't really dance, sing or act ... she thought modeling might be a path to try.  And because I'm a freak for photos, I figured at the very least I'd get some new wall art!  These photos are courtesy {well, not as in free ...} of Zoe McKenzie Photography in Chicago.  And even if I wasn't her mommy, I think they turned out pretty great!

This weekend greeting is from Mr. Boddington's Studio.  "Dearest Friend, I just ate a pan of brownies."  Do you love it?  I wasn't on my game this week and last minute thought it'd be cute to have the girls eat some brownies and take a photo holding the card ... instead we have Piper here with chocolate pudding smeared all over her face ... she loved that!

Then for dessert last night the girls got cupcakes {please ... they're store bought} and I couldn't resist snapping some shots of Hunter and her frosting smeared face.  I promise I wasn't torturing her, that's her 'camera' smile ... seriously ... for over a year now!  It's sorta too cute to try to change it, so for kicks I ask her to smile.

So on to the giveaway!  All you need to do is leave a comment {by next Friday} saying who you would give this card to and why.  I'll pick a winner and send you out the card ... easy peasy!  You can find more rules here.

And sadly, there were no winners of last week's weekend greeting.

This weekend greeting is from a line that's new to the store, 8mm ideas.  I love the wit surrounding these greetings!

As for last week's winner ... I can't decide!  And since technically, miss Nellie Rose can't win that leaves Amy and Five Dot Design {for the life of me, I can't find your name ...}.  So ... you both win!  Yay!

Please email me your addresses & contact info by Monday afternoon and I'll get your card out in the mail.
