Lisa's Blog: "Who's My Special Guest?" Contest.

Friday, March 14, 2008

"Who's My Special Guest?" Contest.

Yikes--it's snowing right now where I live in Utah. Where is Spring?!?

First of all, notice that the March Kit of the Month is sold out and that Becky's February Kit of the Month (the School Years kit) is available for pre-order. Just go to Kit of the Month (above) and you'll see instructions on ordering this kit.

Also, I am so thrilled with the overwhelming response for Nadine (see the posting below). Thank you so much for the wonderful support for this amazing lady. Nadine has e-mailed me several times and is so touched by all the cards. I will post a special letter from her on March 22nd.

Hands down the best part of my job is meeting and mingling with scrapbookers from all over the world. That's how I met Nadine. I also met Michael Lazorchak through scrapbooking.



Michael is an 18-year-old amazing scrapbooker from Marion, Illinois. He is truly a unique scrapbooker and has surprised me with beautiful works of art using photos and entries from my blog. Here is a mini album he created from my birthday photos and blog entry:



I love how even though I'm old enough to be Michael's mother, we have become friends through this amazing hobby. Thanks, Michael!

Okay--now on to the contest. The April Kit of the Month is simply a really cool kit. It's called "Details Enclosed" and includes a lot of really great embellishments, envelopes, pockets, file folders, etc. that help you tell the story and add memorabilia to your pages. These embellishments are truly unique--unlike anything you've seen. (I'll give you a sneak preview the week of the 24th.) I want 10 of you to win one of these kits. Simply guess which celebrity is coming to scrapbook with me at a fun retreat next week and I'll choose 10 names from the correct guesses. You have an entire week to guess--I'll choose 10 lucky winners on March 22nd. Plus--I may even send you a homemade card signed by my friend.

Here are a few hints:

She was a huge television star during my teenage and college years.
Many girls aspired to look like her (I loved her hair).
She is a wonderful role model for other women to follow.

Hum--I really can't say more or I'll give it away.

Good luck with your guess! And I'll have a great time at the retreat--I'll post a photo on the 22nd!

Sincerely,
Lisa

P.S. I'm so very excited that I was able to preorder TWO of the school kits. I cannot tell you how bummed I was that I missed it when it sold out! This is going to be PERFECT for my girls' school memories, and I just can wait to get started with it when it gets here! Thank you!

Lisa, I'll take a stab at it...could it be Lisa Welchel? Blaire from Facts of Life? Just a guess but I know she is a scrapbooker. I met her, as well as you, at the first CKU-A Dallas and was among the lucky ones to attend your private crop. She is certainly someone to look up to as she is a good Christian woman and I have read her bible study books.
Hope I am right!
