New Stamps & A Giveaway!

Remember how I mentioned the other day that there would be more exciting news this week?

Well, here it is...Stacey Yacula's 2013 winter stamp collection will be released this Friday, November 1st!  The new collection is called Winter Wishes! and it is as adorable as ever!

The stamps will be on the website for you to order on Friday 11/1.  There will be lots of samples coming your way from all the design team members.  They will be shared here and on their personal blogs. 

 

In anticipation of this A-D-O-R-A-B-L-E collection we have decided to do a giveaway!  Actually 2 giveaways!!  Read on my friends...

 

There will be a giveaway of the entire Winter Wishes! stamp collection by myself and Stacey.  The collection contains 26 individual super cute unmounted stamps!  I will hold a giveaway on my blog and Stacey is holding one on her blog here.  Make sure you pop over there for another chance to win this collection.

Here is how you could win:

1.  Follow Purple Onion Designs on Twitter (there is a link in the upper left hand column).  The Twitter account is @PurpleOnionRS.  *(No blog comment needed)

2.  Tweet about the giveaway or Purple Onion Designs in general.  Make sure you include @PurpleOnionRS in the tweet so I can see it. *(No blog comment needed) 

3.  Leave a comment on today's blog post telling me how you found out about the giveaway and share what project(s) you have planned to create for the upcoming holiday season. (This is the only one that requires a blog comment).

4.  Subscribe to this blog (there is a sign up in the left hand column). *(No blog comment needed)

5.  Sign up for the Purple Onion Designs Newsletter (sign up along the left hand column). *(No blog comment needed)

*You do not need to leave a separate comment on today's blog post for each of the above.  You only need to leave one comment for #3.  I receive notifications of all new Twitter followers and can check my mentions for your tweets.  I am also able to check my new blog subscribers and newsletter sign ups.

Now you don't have to do all of these to win.  The winner will be randomly chosen but your odds are greater by doing as many of these as possible.  I am sure I will be feeling generous and will do some smaller prizes for a winner in each category.

The giveaway runs from now till midnight est on Thursday, October 31st.  I will announce the winner(s) on my blog Friday morning.  Good luck!
