etsy tuesday: go4pro giveaway

etsy tuesday: go4pro giveaway

Back in January, I received an Etsy message from a Go4Pro marketing gal, informing me of the site’s monthly prize pack contest on their blog. They had stumbled upon my mustache notepads and were hoping to feature them in their upcoming March giveaway.

Not going to lie, I was pretty stoked about the opportunity. It seems like, every now and again, some pretty neat things happen over on Etsy when you’re least expecting it. This was definitely one of those moments.

And, sure, it’s not like I was handpicked by someone over at Martha Stewart Weddings for a feature, or acknowledged by any of the other big wig stationery sites/magazines/bloggers, but hey, it’s the little things that count, and beggars can’t be choosers. These days, I’m thankful for what I get, seeing that my time to focus and pour my entire self into the stationery end of life is rather limited. Ho hum.

Go ahead and check out this month’s giveaway on the Go4Pro blog for yourself. There are some pretty nifty items this month that you just may want to try to get your hands on.

silly sunday: super cheesy holiday greetings

silly sunday: super cheesy holiday greetings

It’s that time of year again, isn’t it?

It’s hard to believe that the holidays are already here. In January, it always feels like December is ages and ages away, and, well, I suppose it is at that point, but before you know it, March has come and gone, summer has vanished and you’re looking at your Christmas tree again.

What a blur the last year has been. In all of its blurry goodness, it’s certainly been a whirlwind of really great proportions with lots and lots of learning opportunities.

Now, we can dive into 2012 and enjoy the last year of our lives … if you’re into that sort of thing. I guess.

On the topic of holidays, for your Christmas enjoyment, here are some shots taken during a Christmas photo shoot I did with a couple of friends. I was asked to shoot “cheesy” photos and I’m sure that by some point in the afternoon, there was regret hanging in the air over having asked for cheesy/tacky holiday photos. I took cheesy and awkward to some oddball places, and loved every second of it.

All in all, though, it produced some really great shots for these guys, and I hope they’re just as happy with their photos as I was with them. This was definitely one of those photo shoots where I was nervous throughout the whole thing, assuming nothing was turning out the way I wanted, only to get home and realise I was being foolish.

Tacky, cheesy photo success.

Happy holidays!
