{Giveaway} Storkie Express ***ENDED***

March 5, 2012 By 2 Comments

Having a new addition to the family is a very special blessing.  It’s something that we wanted to shout from the rooftops!  Even “Banjo” was too excited to have his little “Ruby” come home from the hospital.  To this day he refers to her as his baby.  Not his baby sister, but simply his baby.  It’s really cute to here him say, “Where’s my baby?”  When we were sent birth announcements compliments of Storkie our “Banjo” was thrilled to see the finished product.  He said, “Awww.  That’s my baby!”

We chose this announcement:

And it was quite the hit with the people in our lives who received it!

Storkie has sooooo many cute baby announcements to choose from, so it wasn’t difficult to find something that worked with our style.  There’s even announcements that are perfect for either gender:

Making the decision making process that much easier!

Not in the market for baby announcements?  Not a problem, because Storkie Express  has unique Baby Shower Invitations:

Wedding Invitations:

Graduation Invitations:

Even Holiday Cards!

So keep Storkie in mind for your holiday cards come this fall!

Storkie Express has it all!  And…  The winner of this giveaway is going to receive a $25 gift certificate to spend at Storkie!

{Giveaway} CrinkledNose.com ***ENDED***

February 6, 2012 By 27 Comments

It’s always an exciting time when a new baby joins the household and our dandy household is no exception to that rule!  Banjo literally tells everyone that he has a new baby sister.  Only he leaves out the sister part.  It’s “I have a new baby” or “That’s my baby”.  It’s really cute!  Banjo hasn’t really seen a soul (outside of our household) over the last week, because he has been sick.  He hasn’t even been allowed to be around Ruby, because he is sick with RSV!  Scary times at our house.  We kept Ruby isolated from him as soon as we found out he had it.  Unfortunately over the weekend she began to have breathing problems that took us to the ER.  She tested positive for RSV, but is slowly on the mend.  Now that she has it we will still not being seeing people for awhile as she will be sick for another 7 days.  :(  It’s a good thing that CrinkledNose.com let us create her baby announcements so people will be able to see her!  The announcements, cards, invitations, calendars, and note pads at CrinkledNose.com are totally different from what you will find elsewhere.  What makes them so special?  All all available for a magnet upgrade!  Picture this.  A baby announcement with a magnetic back built right in.  Announcements and such always end up on the refrigerator for all to see and CrinkleNose.com makes that easily done!

Here’s just one of their adorable baby announcements:

And like I said there’s also….

Cards:

Invitations:

Calendars:

Notepads:

Right now you can even get 25% off your order when you use “dandy25″ at checkout!  Alright.  Are you ready to find out what’s being given away from CrinkledNose.com?  Well, one very lucky winner is going to receive 10 personalized magnetic photo calendars!  And…  It’s winner’s choice of design and size!  So enter away my dandy readers!   :)

Our reception was held here:

 My dress, shoes, and flowers were absolute perfection!  And the invitations/announcements…  Okay so they were kind of boring.  Nothing like the look of this beautiful wedding invite:

Well well.  It’s November and it’s time to act like it!  Here at our house, we are getting all kinds of ready for Christmas — including preparations for Christmas cards.  We send them out every year — and some years are less stress {not really, I always add unnecessary stress for myself – it’s just how I roll} than others.  So this year, I’ve decided to simplify and I’m getting to-do’s crossed off my list early, starting with our family Christmas card.

Black and whites?  You bet:
