..Festive Pay It Forward Giveaway....


With Easter over for another year I have been thinking about what craft projects may be next on the list-then I got my inspiration from a fellow blogger!

The lovely Tracy at Mad about bags has been running a giveaway -Pay it Forward- that you can do over 365 days...and it got me thinking..

As we 
'Keep Christmas in our Hearts all year'
 here.....





I thought that I would do a..

 ..Festive Pay It Forward Giveaway....


So, I invite you to leave a comment on this post saying what you love most about Christmas- ( no negative comments allowed!) and which of the following styles you would most like and I will send you a 'Stocking of Goodies'  in time for Christmas....

The styles available are ;

Scandinavian-(red,creams and white :)



Glitter Pink- ( pinks and a little bit of bling :)





 New England Style- (traditional colours :)




Hotch Potch- (a mix of all the above :)




I am already excited at the idea!

It will be such fun learning about the winners over the next few months and putting together a stocking full of Festive Cheer for them... 

I will choose three winners on May 1st...Please check back here then and send me your details if you are winner... 

 I will then send your goodies out for December 1st, for you to enjoy all during December....

Good Luck!

Warm Wishes,

Callie
