Woohoo! Free Stuff!
So I’m starting to reap the benefits of this whole HOF thing, and it is amazingly generous! We have received so many donations from various manufacturers already, and there is still more to come! Pinch me!
The cutest, however, happened yesterday. That wonderful UPS man brought me two boxes, one of which was from Imaginisce. To say that Emily liked the product was an understatement. First she kept saying, “Mommy! Look at the pretty butterflies!” (um, they were flowers). Then I pulled out the paper, and she said, “Ooo! That’s mine!” (um, think again, little one!) When I put the paper back in the box, she said, “Mommy, this is mine. I lay down in it.” And that is exactly what she did:
This kid just might be my clone. Laying down in a box filled w/ scrap stuff? Yeah, she’s mine.
Yesterday I also received a box filled w/ two paper and embellishment kits from Stemma, several mini-album and page kits from Creating Keepsakes, and the motherload of organizational supplies from Cropper Hopper. Chris liked those 
He thinks that I’m actually gonna get organized - ha!
Last week before we left, I received two MORE boxes! One was filled to the gills w/ idea books and another mini-album kit from Creating Keepsakes:
And then there was THE box. OMG, this box was amazing! Take a look!
It included items from:
7gypsies
Tinkering Ink
Magic Mesh
Technique Tuesday
Paperhouse Productions

The cool part is that the HOFers are going to start doing a Manufacturer Challenge on the CKMB once a month on the 15th of every month. This month we will be featuring American Crafts. I’ll link it up when it goes live.
Back to scrapping!
