Just a post between other posts. This is too good to pass.
This world of bloggers is such a nice world, you get to know people, people are sending each other packages and little cards. It almost seems if people are happy to give and to share. Last week I was a winner of such a giveaway which was organized by Heather Bullard and I was thrilled.That's why Lisa Oceandreamer hosts a blogger giveaway event. And I'm one of the more than 242 participants. The drawing is next Thursday on Valentinesday.
Actually I was a bit of an opponant of that February 14th. Here in the Netherlands there was no such thing as Valentines day, but since globalisation the shops are filled with merely very ugly and useless stuff. Too commercial for me. But this is something else, its about sharing and getting to know each other. So welcome every one and join the fun!
This is my give away:
Some scraps and some self-made heart shaped notes
This picture didn't want to load, what a shame, some surprises for those who have given their comments already...
Two old bingo cards and 4 new dutch Christmas cards with old pictures though...
Some ephemera. It's a word I have recently learned since my frequent visits to blogland. But those old papers were me all the way.
Here are some french pages, a sheet of music paper, two playing cards. And two pages of a dutch 1918 magazine with those beautiful adds.
Last but not least; some old and new but vintage-like wallpaper.
I'm addicted to wallpaper for about 10 years or so. I keep going to Laura Ashley's for pieces to try on my wall. Even play little acts with friends who need some wallpaper there too (shhht).
I never knew there were so many wallpaper addicts. Now I have discovered the vintage american wallpaper, mmm I wil not rest until I have ordered some of those sweet pastel colored pieces.
Well I have closed the file.
I hope your crafting imagination has been tempted!
Want to be a winner? Being here can be only one step from that goal.
The next step is giving a comment on this post. This post only!!!
You don't have to be a blogger but make yourself traceable. So leave an email adress if necessary.
I will draw a winner on February 14th, local time, which is CET.
Good luck to you all! So nice to meet you!
Sorry!! Its now Valentine's day here in Western Europe (CET).
I'm closing at a 158 comments (ooops).
You cannot enter anymore, but I wish you a happy Valentine's day!!!

Haha, Lili, als je zo'n pakket aanbiedt, krijg je vast duizenden reacties... ook al ben ik een keer de 'lucky lady' geweest toen ik van jouw een pakketje mocht ontvangen, ik doe natuuuuuuuurlijk ook nu mee, want tsjonge jonge, wat is dit een cadeau!!
Ps. dat van het behang heb ik eigenlijk ook, maar ik durf niet zo goed ;-)
Hello Lili
I would love to join in with your generous giveaway.. I too have a passion for wallpaper and would love to tell you a story of a derelict house I discovered on a walk one day.. the walls were covered in vintage handpainted wall paper which was peeling off.. I of course tore strips off to take home and cherish.
I am so pleased that my video of Sir Ken Robinson touched your heart.. it moved me to tears the first time I saw it and it resonates loudly with my own experience and of my child's education..
My husband is of the same mind as Sir Ken and his school values all aspects of educating and nurturing a child..We should concentrate on communication skills and other strengths. Our academic abilities are somewhat redundant in this rapidly changing world. Resilience, Resourcefulness and reflection are key to success. Every parent can make a difference and as you say.. one small wave...
Thank you for linking me.. I am so glad our paths have crossed!
Michelex
Soo much beutiful goodies you have stuffed your gift with. Of course I would like to win this. I been stunned over your lovely popup cards and the wawing hand, lo lovely.
during the years we have been keeping the vintage wallpaper we came over, but nog using it.
Nice words you sharing us about blogging and Valentine. I'm in the same opinion. Hugs /linnea-maria

Hi Lili,
Your goodies for the giveaway are wonderful!
Here in Australia the shops are also filled with lots of junk stuff, things I can't stand and I always came to dislike Valentines day. BUT since seeing all the beautiful crafty creations our friends in the States make every year and that they give to friends, and really enjoy creating and giving, I am looking at it so differently!
Here in Australia it is just a commercialised excuse to charge $80 for a bunch of roses that would have been $20 any other day of the year!
Looks like a super giveaway to me. I haven't yet collected a lot of stuff for collage. Got just about everything else but not collage stuff!! Come see what I am giving away.
Oh how Yummy! I would really like this giveaway!
Please sign me in!
Come over to my place and see what I have to offer!
Liisa

Hoi Lidwien,
Leuk dat je weer even langs kwam op mijn blog. Valt nog niet mee hoor zo'n blog. Heb vanmiddag weer wat uurtjes achter de computer doorgebracht. Ik ben er inmiddels wel achter dat het aan de computer ligt, want zonet op de laptop van Hans lukte het allemaal wel.
Ik heb nog een tip voor je als je weer eens in Leiden bent.
In de Diefsteeg zit zo'n ontzettend leuk (picasa)winkeltje, 't gemakje heet het, opgeknapte meubeltjes, bestek, glaswerk, speelgoed,lampen en oude ansichtkaarten. Je kunt er bijna niet lopen zoveel staat er maar leuk dat het er is. Groetjes Marja
Lili...these are amazing treats!! Please enter me:):)
