Hello all! Thank you so much for your comments and kind words! The winner of the giveaway will be announced May 1st so keep an eye out for your name. All you have to do to enter is comment on any Whoa My Darling post.

Since this semester is nearing the end, I have tons of lesson plans and projects due (I find myself wondering if school will ever end). I will be taking a [short] leave of absence. Posting will continue May 1st but I encourage you to continue reading!

whoa my giveaway

I know I know, finally! I am very proud to announce the first Whoa My Darling giveaway.

The winner will receive a set of 3 handmade folded cards (and envelopes). They are 3.5 inches by 5 inches. Simple cards that are blank of the inside.

To enter: All you have to do is comment on any post on the Whoa My Darling blog (one entry per person). The winner will be chosen at random on May 1st. Please check back to see if you won. This is open to all countries!

I am very excited for the first giveaway! I have been having trouble finding time to blog with work and school which is funny because I have found the next book I am going to read. It is definitely the longest book I have ever attempted. I have heard the book is wonderful as well as the movie. Any ideas? It is Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. This is going to be quite a challenge to get through all one thousand five hundred odd pages. But I intend to do so! Have you ever read it?

 I finally finished the book Water for Elephants which was absolutely wonderful! I am so excited to go see the movie this weekend. I recommend you read it.

whoa there!

I really need to start sewing again...lunchbox DIY project will be up soon.

Started reading Water For Elephants, such a lovely book so far! It is always fun to read a book and then see the movie.

Look at all of these amazing handmade stamps! I've tried making my own before and that is not something I was good at.
