Mother's Day Giveaway


*********************************************************
Now on to Tiaras & Tantrums Giveaway. I am giving away for Mother's Day two paperbag scrap book that I have made (now remember I am no professional or novice, this is just something I happen to love to do).



Also these gorgeous bracelets that I purchased in China. The magnetic bracelet is very versatile and can also be worn as a necklace. Both bracelets are made with real pearls.

So there is a total of three Mother's Day gifts that I will giveaway, one scrapbook (two winners) and the bracelets. There may also, possibly, be some other things thrown in the package, perhaps, say for instance, some chocolate peanut butter cups (that is if I don't eat them all)



Now for the rules:

One scrapbook will be drawn from my followers

One scrapbook will be drawn from the comments

The bracelets will be drawn from the comments as well.

Please let me know what item you want to win in the comments.



That is it.




In case I forget to say it later, may your Mother's Day be everything you'd like it to be.

I will announce the winner on Monday, May 11 after my children draw the winner!



What I really (REALLY) want for Mother's day is a macro lens for my camera. I think I want the Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens. I think. I am not sure if this will work with my Canon Rebel XT though. I have looked at so many lens that my eyes are cross eyed. Does anyone have any favorites or advice for me? If I can't decide I will likely get a Pilates Machine instead. Which my arse really needs more anyway!

I totally want a scrapbook. How fun! I've been worried about what to get mom this year cuz I'm broke! Flowers are great, but they only last so long! Come on scrapbook!!!!

Anne Elizabeth April 30, 2009 5:35 PM  

I have yet to have an enjoyable Mother's day as a mother. Hopefully this year will be different. I would like what you want. A TRUE DAY OFF!

Peggy April 30, 2009 6:15 PM  

Those are some really great ideas! I'm always stumped when it comes to mother's day...you can only have so many perfumes!

Jen April 30, 2009 6:40 PM  

those are some great gifts that you highlighted here. I am going to point my hubby in this direction.

jori-o April 30, 2009 7:32 PM  

Yeah, great post! I'm trying to figure out what to get MY mom (and MIL)...you have some great suggestions. Since I follow and will have a chance at a scrapbook that way, count me in for the bracelets here! =)

Izzy 'N Emmy April 30, 2009 8:52 PM  

I would like to have the whole day to myself too. To do whatever I wanted, no one to even talk to me, unless of course someone was hurt. lol!

Great gift ideas too!

Anna April 30, 2009 10:37 PM  

I want a scrapbook. Those are so adorable!!

Carrie and Troy Keiser April 30, 2009 11:16 PM  

What great mother's day gift ideas you posted. I really should do up some scrapbooks for the grandmas.
yes the best mother's day gift would be a day off! :) The bracelets are very nice as well. (you could pick me and I wouldn't even care which I got :> )

Deb May 1, 2009 5:56 AM  

i love the scrapbook, but unfortunately, it would just get stacked up with all my other "to-do" projects. oh well, guess i'll have to win the bracelets!

and my perfect mother's day is when i don't have to be a mother to anyone either!

It is so true the comment that says mothers and housewives are the only workers who do not have regular time off. They are the great vacation-less class. My mother has worked all her life at her job and at bringig me and my sister up to wich I am eternaly greatful.

If I could choose I would like the scrap book. My mther has so many things she could put in one of those , photos , certificates , I think she would love it.

I am Barking Mad May 2, 2009 12:56 PM  

Ohhhhh, gorgeous stuff. Count me in.

When you decide on a new lens for your Canon, can you let me know? I'm switching over to Canon (I currently shoot with the Sony Alpha series DSLR's which I love but am switching nonetheless) and I'd love as much input as possible!

I have that magnetic bracelet! I bought it in China! Did you get it at Ru Pei Pei in the Pearl Market? I got mine after the SARS outbreak, there were great bargains to be had.

I would like to win the small bracelet (not the magnet one).

Sara Bonds May 5, 2009 11:27 AM  

I am not entering, but I wanted to tell you that it is beautiful. You could sell those. I think it is so lovely and very creative. I love the colors.

I found the guys at Best Buy are very knowledgable when it comes to the Canon cameras. Maybe they can help you with what you need?
I just got 2 filtered lenses. One regular and one polarized. For better pics and mostly to protect my camera lense!
