Yes, I was one of those crafters, that didn't know Mark Montano had written a craft book. Where have I been? Then I stumbled on it at Barnes and Noble. About had a heart attack. And bought 4!!! Good Christmas gifts. :O)
Did you know that there is a second? Yes, I bought that one too. Then I realized, they'd make great giveaway prizes!!! So I went back, and bought another set. Let me tell you, there are some great ideas in these books!
OK, here are all the details. I will ship internationally. The winner will receive both books. And a few surprises. The giveaway is open from December 12th 12PM-December 16th 3PM MST. And all you have to do is, leave a message with a link to your favorite craft blog. That's it! Don't forget your e-mail address, if it's not on your profile. Good Luck everyone! And you might want to come back after New Year's. Let's just say, I'm getting ready for another giveaway! ♥
