I was going to post a giveaway today because I'm so close to finishing my Christmas orders and I wanted to celebrate by giving away some misfit projects that have turned out pretty fantastic. And because Joey has successfully learned how to put himself in time out when necessary. Saves so much transport time and makes the holidays merry.
But now that Gabrielle (we're totally on a first name basis...I'm totally on a first name basis) has clued me into the 12th day of Christmas celebration thing, I'm pretending I knew that and I'm jumping on the festive chuckwagon. I mean band.
This is what you {might} get if you leave me a celebratory comment:
This monster that was going to be Dani's but she changed her mind.
And this bag whose shell was cut the wrong size for the almost last bag of the Christmas orders...but I didn't have the heart to send it to the island of silly mistakes, so I completed the bag using cool stuff from the scrap bin. And I love it. And I want you to have it. Because it's the twelth day of Christmas. of course.
The flower is only attached with a safety pin, so you can take it off and put it anywhere you want.
My sister called me the other day and randomly started complaining about how she hates it when radio stations and charity places give these huge prizes away to one person instead of dividing it out among the little people. Like she'd enjoy a slice of that pie thing. Justified.
But I'm not dividing it up. I'm choosing not to give in to the complaints of dewsie. I am her bundle giving adversary. If you win, you get the whole pie!! Or enchilada, whichever you prefer. And maybe even a bonus treat that you may or may not care about. Depending on how you feel about blood sucking blockbusters.
All right, enough babbling.
Merry 12th.
Giveaway ends midnight Thursday, December 18.
Link to this page and you'll get a double entry!!

The first comment never wins do they...here's to hope! I can't tell you how much I love your stuff. Hurry and open that etsy shop!
I've been reading your blog for a little while now, and I can't tell you how much I love your bags. They are great!
I would love to add her to my already awesome monster friends! And the bag... to die for!
Your creations are adorable no matter if this is a giveaway or not I just had to let you know my opinion. Wishing you a happy 12th.☺
I'm soooo glad Dani changed her mind about the monster. It needs me. Cally, you are so darn talented.
sign me up. love the fabric.
oh, and linked.
i found your blog through shelane, and i must say i LOVE that bag. you are really talented!
i linked too, because i have to have that bag.
You didn't say what time zone, so...it's not quite midnite pacific time yet. OK, so really, I just got the dishes done, the baby back to sleep and jumped on here because this is my window to the outside world. The computer I mean. Anyways, I really need cute stuff. You know I do with 4 boys living in the house. I have to find other sources to get my "cute on" because they won't let me paint my purple striped or pink polka dotted walls anymore! Maybe that's while I feel the urge to color part of my hair purple again. Hmmm, something to think about.
and i linked...yes, I am greedy and want to win!
Pick me, pick me......as long as your sister is not included in the giveaway......if so, I'll swap you one of mine.
What an awesome, cool bag! Wow~ Merry Christmas!
What a Merry Christmas TO ME it would be to win! :)
I love your bags (and your creativity) they are all beautiful - but this one might be favorite. Oh, and I want to wear that pin on my coat and say hi to everyone.
Oh Cally, you are so good! You know I will link! Merry Christmas!!
I love your fun and unique designs. I'm linking too!
The verification word is 'consunk'. Not really a word, but kind of funny.
IF you give it ALL to one person you consunk all the others who could have a little something. AND you maybe even consunk the getter because then they'll always expect to GET IT ALL! You set them up for a lifetime of disappointment.
But if it can all fit into a Target shopping bag or is less than a thousand dollars. No need to split it up. There. There's my criteria that at least I shall live by hereafter and forevermore.
i've linked up. i would feel bad if i won again. maybe if i promise to give them as gifts it could work out ok. hmmm....will consider it.
Oh, Oh, Oh, pick me, pick me, pick me! I know, you are really into the whole "honesty" thing, and you are gonna pick a winner the "right" way. I was gonna try and use leverage against you, and hold you family pictures hostage.
But that wouldn't be very nice, huh? Niceness ceases to be when Cally is giving away things! Ahhh....funny. Anyway, I have linked you my dear!!
What a fun, creative way to get in the Christmas spirit. I'm impressed that you are able to part with such cuteness!
I'm in! & I linked..!
ok. i want this. elliot's room is a monster theme. and orange... and i still don't have one of your bags (your own sister... i know) and i am a huge blood-sucking fan... whatever that means to you. i wish i could link, but our website freaked out and (until seth can get to it to fix it) if i publish anything i'll lose everything. EVERYTHING. have mercy.
Ok Cally I might be privy to your creative genius what with the gifts and such but one can never get enough of your wonderful creations. Did you say blood-sucking fan? I think my daughters and I have gone above and beyond with such an idea, as in totally over the top fans! But I'm totally devoted to you of course! your creations are pure genius!! Your favorite fan and MACU gilre. Diana

From your Great Canadian Friend who would love to win cause it would warm me up during this cold winter time. CHOW BABE!!!
Love, love, love your creations!! I will have my fingers crossed all day! Thanks for being so generous!!
i heart the purse!!!
if you have just about finished your Christmas orders... that will be like seeing the light at the end of a tunnel. good for you. celebrations are wonderful. try to take a few minutes and sit down with the bowl of power pills filled clear to the top... and eat every last one as a preventative measure of course... cause i am sure you won't be slowing down any... just taking a deep breath.

Oo Oo! It's my turn to win something! You know how much I admire your work & how jealous I am of you talent....is this working? because it's true! That should at least get me some points...
Oh, & as usual I'm linking. That's 2 in my favor, right?
Wow, I was really tired last night-I thought that I was just barely meeting the deadline, when really I had all day today. It would help if I looked at a calendar. But that's waaaay too organized for me! I still want your goods!

Once again, I am SO in! I know if I keep trying, one day it will be ALL mine!!!
