What Would You Like to Win?
I'm fast approaching my 300th post as well as my 10,000th blog visit. I'd like to host a wonderful giveaway to celebrate, but I'm not really sure what would inspire you to sign up and tell your friends.
As you think about it, bear in mind, I have no money, so whatever it is will have to be free for me to get or make and the delivery cost must be negligible. In other words, I'd love to send you my extra computer system, but I can't afford the shipping.
In the past, I've given away a couple of blog headers (see my work on the blogs of previous winners Mudpies to Dragonflies and There is no such thing as a God-forsaken town). I could do that again, if there is interest, but I'd really like to give away something my readers want.
Some other thoughts I've had:
I'm accepting submissions through Thanksgiving weekend and I will announce the contest the following week.
Thanks for your help!!

Some other thoughts I've had:
- Custom crocheted hat, shawl, bag, or stuffed toy
- Set of personalized notecards or writing paper
- Handmade calendar or journal
- Paperback book
- Collection of my favorite recipes
- ???

Handmade Cards
This post originally appeared on By Hook or By Cook.
Lately I've been having a lot of fun making my own cards and envelopes. I recently was in charge of invitations for a wedding shower and decided to make square invitation cards along with their own envelopes. I thought they would also make a really neat gift for anyone who likes to write little notes (or for a bride or new mom who has all those thank yous to send).
You can download my templates for the 4¼" x 4¼" cards, envelopes, and a gift box, just the right size for 4-6 cards. The templates include cutting and folding instructions.
You can find a good recipe for envelope adhesive here.
Once I find my camera again, I will post photos of the finished product.
