A JEWELRY GIVEAWAY!

Hello and Welcome! if this is your first time here, I'm glad you stopped by and get ready for a Holiday treat.
I'd like give a special welcome to all the Pink Ladies from Beverly's How Sweet The Sound

This week Bubblegum And Duct Tape is giving away some beautiful prizes that will kick start the Holiday cheer.  By joining in on the fun, you may win some of the awesome prizes below for yourself or to give as a gift to someone special. 

This Giveaway ends December 11th, 2010

Here are the Prize Giveaways:

Prize #1 Charm Bracelet hand made by Wanda Epps
Size Medium
Made of sterling silver, except the charms, which are made of lead-free pewter and enamel.


Prize #2 Pink Bracelet hand made by Me! (with Wanda's help of course)
Made with silver wire, the beads are made of glass
Size Small


Prize #3 Making Wire Jewelry Tutorial E-Book


Prize #4 Hand Made "Boyfriend Album"

This is a paper bag album that is so popular these days.  It has hidden pockets where you can store boyfriend photos I used very high quality paper that is acid free so it's safe for your photos.  You can see the full album here Boyfriend Album .  This would be a fun gift this Holiday Season


Wouldn't  you love to receive these in your mail? The charm bracelet was hand-made by my very special friend, Wanda Epps.  Wanda is a jewelry artist who will never miss the opportunity to teach someone how to make jewelry.  She knows all the tricks of the trade and the latest in new techniques.  Lucky for us, she loves passing along her knowledge.  She has the most awesome website full of information with tutorials, videos and e-books.  She has offered to answer any jewelry questions you may have by visiting this link: Ask Wanda
Hi, I'm Wanda Epps jewelry designer and jewelry making instructor.   Making beaded jewelry is my passion.  I'm originally from the South in the USA, the state of Virginia. Living in a rural area, I enjoyed a childhood romping and roaming open fields and woods, playing with many relatives and neighborhood kids.  Years later, after college, I moved to California where I now live.
I guess you could say that the hobby found me.  While looking through the newspaper one day, I noticed a coupon to attend a bead show in Santa Monica, California.  I decided to attend and was hooked! I've since become addicted to buying beads, going to bead shows and making jewelry.
Now for the RULES.......
I know, rules are for nerds but if we don't have rules, things will get out of hand so I guess we'll all be nerds for a few days.  Now where are my yellow suspenders (snort).


Rule #1  You will be given a point when you leave a comment for each Action you follow below.  Actions A through E are worth one point each, so you would leave a separate comment for each Action A-E .  Action F is worth five points, so you would leave five separate comments for Action F.

Rule #2 Please leave one comment for each Action (except for action F, where you'll need to leave 5 comments).  Only comments submitted to this post will be accepted. Blogger will automatically assign a number for each of your comments.  I will use the numbers assigned to your comments to make my Random selections for the winners by using Random.Org a random number generator service. 

Rule #3 The giveaway runs through December 11th 2010 and a day after, December 12, 2010, I will use Random.org to generate four numbers and I will post them on the 12th to reveal the winners. The first number it generates will be for the 4th prize, the second number it generates will be for the 3rd price and on down to the 1st Prize.

Rule #4 I will add all four winner's blog buttons or links on my side bar for the remainder of December (ps, that means free advertising for your blog). 

Rule #5 Since I'm using Random.org, it is possible for one person to win more than one prize.

  4. Hi Maria, I am a new follower of your blog but not sure if that's worth a point. No matter, I love boosting our Pinkies whenever I can. Your jewelry is lovely and Wanda is part of a dying breed. Most people won't share so give her a big hug for me. I don't bead but my daughter does. I will pass Wandas info along. Best of luck on the giveaway & Happy PS!
    Licks & Wags, Niki
