I love the gift giveaway! What fun! I just subscribed to receive your posts by email. Since there are three things in the giveaway, I would give 1 thing to my mom, 1 to my sister, and would keep 1 for me. That would be a special treat for all the girls in my family! :)

Congratulations!!! I'll be in touch to finalize your goodies. Thanks so much everyone!!

We have a winner! Turned out to be an anonymous one (reply #24) so if this was your comment, please email me!:

i would definitely send it to a newly engaged friend, i loved getting fun stuff with my new monogram on it, and now that i'm close to my wedding, i want to share the fun with her since she's just started planning!

and i'm a follower =)

msifp said...

Since my mom and mother-in-law don't really write notes or travel, I'd keep the goodies for myself! Yay, me! LOL!

I follow on Twitter, too!

Lisa said...

I would split this gift up between two people:
My sister is graduating from high school this year and moving away from home for the first time to go to school in Seattle - she will need help keeping in touch!
I would give the luggage tag to my parent's foreign exchange student who is headed back to Sweden in a few weeks. She's taking back far more bags than she brought over, so she will need more tags - why not make them beautiful?! :)

I follow this site via email AND twitter.

I love this site! :)

Diane said...

Not to be selfish, but sounds like a great Mother's Day gift for ME! :)

welcometoindiana said...

to me, me, me...but will actually go to my mom instead !

Joy said...

I have to be greedy, I'd probably keep at least one thing for myself!

Brandi Morris said...

I would def. send to my mother for mother's day. she is such a great mother, wonderful grandmother, and deserves something fun and girly.

bonnie said...

Great idea for a great fun item! Would most likely forward this gift to a newly expectant mom as my own mothers have passed away.

Anonymous said...

My daughter would love this! How fun!

Kimmy said...

I would love to keep this for myself. I am a working mom of three and I need to celebrate mothers day more than ever!

Koren said...

Pick me :) I am new at the Mother's Day thing, my daughter is 19 months, so this will only be my second one being on the receiving end. Also, my birthday is May 11th so you would be giving me a gift that is twice as nice.

My recent order just came last week for my friends who just bought a house, and just opening the box to see the stuff has me wanting to reach for the Visa card!!!

Oh, and I follow the blog through gmail.

If you can't already tell, I love ATOWD!

Erin Lowmaster said...

I would love to send this to my mother as a surprise mother's day gift :) I know she would be thrilled to have it.

AiringMyLaundry said...

Ooo I love it.

I'd want it for myself. It could be a Mother's Day present because let's be honest, my husband probably won't get me anything.

Rebecca H said...

To my friend that just had a baby. The cards would be great for all those "Thank You" cards that need to go out and the tag for the diaper bag. Thanks!

Wendy said...

I'd send it to my mom... or my mother in law. ;)

I follow you with email, and google reader.
I follow you on twitter.

There are so many fun items and such a great giveaway! Thank you!

I would want to send this to my Aunt Judy. She just retired and is getting ready to move to be close to her only son and 2 grandsons. She is also planning to be able to travel much more since retirement.

I would share them with my sister! She loves cute stuff just as much as me!!!

I just posted on Facebook about your giveaway, great idea!!!

Lindsay SMith said...

Not to be selfish but I LOVE YOUR STUFF so I would be keeping it for myself!

Suburban prep said...

While I should say that I'd send it to my mother I am going to say I'd send it to one of my sisters. This sister wanted so badly to be a mother. She had many health issues (one of which was cancer). She is the mother to a little girl who just turned 6 on April 22. Though this child is not biologically her own (she is adopted), you would never know because she is so loved by all her family especially her mother.


I receive e-mails. Love them.

Jenni Parker said...

ooh! so exciting! I haven't "treated" myself in awhile to the whimsy designs and I was definitely wanting to update!!! :)

Brandy Johnson said...

I could definitely use a sweet freebie on Freebie Friday. I'm always up for new note cards...especially cutey patootie note cards!!

April Agnew said...

I have to saw I would give the Friday Freebie for me :) 99% of the items I order from ATOW are gifts, so this one would be from you to me! Love your products!

Shaina said...

Hi! I would love to win this fabulous package - I would give it to my mom for Mother's Day. She has done so much for me the past year, especially supporting me during my wedding planning this past fall. She deserves something nice and pretty!

Also, I have posted about this giveaway on my blog sidebar! I also follow you on my Reader.

Jen said...

Love sending handwritten notes and so does my mom! I would give them to her with the hint that she should buy me some!! :)

ctseibert said...

Would give to my best friend who is about to have a baby!

Magpie Mommy said...

I might send them to my sister or my best friend but truthfully, I want them for myself! I have some of your stickers that I use on gift bags and I LOVE them. We use them for kid's birthday parties all the time.
Thanks for the giveaway.

Melissa - Petalsntwigs said...

Hi Ms. Gina..
I would send these to my Mother-In-Law. She is EVERYTHING to me and this would be one very special way of saying "Thanks" and "I Love You!" I have ordered from you before and your items are very special. Thank you for the opportunity. :0)

Anna V.T. said...

Happy Friday to all! If I win, I would like to have this sent to my friend. She's a hardworking mom that gets very little breaks (single mom raising two little ones). This is just a little token of appreciation for her hard work. Thanks!

ACH said...

I would send this to my best friend/cousin. I know she would love it! Also, I follow through Mac Mail client!

Jessica said...

Would it be selfish to say myself? Maybe? No?

Well, I would. ME! ONLY because a couple of months ago I WIPED out you guys because I bought Mother's Day & birthday gifts all in one fail swoop! So, everyone around me has adorable stationary but ME!

This is an awesome giveaway! Thanks!

Oh, and I'm a follower.

Hope I tweeted right on twitter....and I desperately need some pretty new things for me or my mom! thanks, Gina!

I would pass on the prize to my mom. She would never buy something like this for herself and always compliments me on my purchases from A Touch of Whimsy. I know she would love it!

Thanks for having these giveaways!!!!!

I would send this to my mom. She still sends handwritten letters to my kids and I. Writing is such a lost art form. This would be perfect for her.
I receive your e-mail and will post to my fb page.

It would go to myself. I recently had my gall bladder out, and I feel like a gun shot victim. Besides, out of everything I have purchased in the past, I have to have all new things made due to phone number changes brought on by a stalker. LOL! I sound like a soap. I love your work!!!

Jess said...

I'd have to keep it for myself- I'm a mom, and I need some new "family" cards with my baby girl's (due in June) name on them! :)

Vanessa King said...

I would give this gift to my mum, but I think I would have to keep one item for me!!

Amy said...

Count me in - I would probably keep it for myself, I need some new stationery!

follow the ATOWD blog or by email/reader - yep!
follow us on Twitter - yep!

I would absolutely love to give something to my Mom for Mother's Day!! I would also love to keep a little something for myself since I typically give my ATOWD away because people love them so much. ;D p.s. I've posted a blog on my facebook (Collette Ojeda) and I also plan to follow it on Twitter!!! :D

Melissa G said...

I would pick to have it sent to my mom in Florida. She deserves it! She's always writing encouraging notes to her family and friends. So this would be perfect for her!

Anonymous said...

I would give it to my mom. She loves stationary, but she refused to buy it for herself!

Heather Watson said...

Ok...I'd give it to my husband to give right back to me! He needs some help sometimes...

I've also posted your give-a-way on my FB page...although I'm not sure I want the competition!

Thanks so much for a chance at such an awesome prize. I am ADDICTED to stationary and still love to snail mail....

I'm with Our Funny Farm....I would give one to my sister, one to my daughter and keep one for myself. We are all lovers of paper and with the economy as it is, buying cute stuff is on the shelf!
