Colette Paperie Giveaway - Assortment Packs!


Happy Friday!

I'm excited for the weekend. I've got a super-packed social calendar this weekend which makes me feel all popular and loved. Sushi tomorrow, a little state fair action on Saturday (fried food... WIN!), and a birthday brunch on Sunday! I am also planning out my little birthday bash, working on building up stock for upcoming craft fairs (specifically Renegade in Chicago Sept 10+11th) and the busy holiday season that is creeping up on me!


This weekend's giveaway will be Colette Paperie swag! I love giving away my cards. I'd give them to everyone if I could, but you know, gotta pay the stupid electric bill at some point. Giveaways are way too fun, so I can't resist.
There will be 3 winners!


The prize:
(3) assortment packs of Colette Paperie single cards (of your choosing)
4 cards included - worth $12 + s&h for FREE!

  1. Holiday cards, hmm. I'm a huge geek, and always looking for some geeky/video game related cards but rarely find them.
    For the four cards: your baby is freaking cute (I swear, I've gotten like six of these from you, my friends keep having babies!), you're my favorite husband, jerkasaurus rex,and silver lining to my cloud.

  2. i love humorous cards. i bought the "nice balls" last year and i loved sending it out to my friends. i thnk this humor is unexpected, especially at the holiday time, but it brings a smile to everyone's face. so i suggest humorous holiday cards- santa or elves seem like easy targets.

    for the cards
    -bloom where you are planted
    -the day sure is long when you get to work on time
    -awesomeness percentile
    -your baby is freaking cute.

  4. I would love a calendar full of seasonal/month-related puns--much like many of your cards are :) For the cards: Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, you're just grate, women belong in the house..., and bloom where you are planted.

  5. Your cards are hilarious. I love You're My Favorite Husband, Custom Wood Grain Heart (does this one count??), A Day in the Life of a Baby (can't wait to give that one!) and Customized Tree Initials (again, does this one count??). I am always on the lookout for different Christmas cards...I would love one that has beautiful designs around it and a neat cutout place to put a picture of the kids, family, dogs, etc. Instead of the somewhat boring ones from Target. aprilcioch (at) yahoo (dot) com

  6. Thanks so much for offering this fun little giveaway!

    I'd love to be able to hand out cute little work Christmas cards with quirky sayings that are smaller. My problem with buying a pack of generic cards is that they're all so big -- I love the people I work with, but I often don't know what to write and leaving so much space left just feels silly to me. I'd love to be able to hand out mid-sized cards around Christmas just to say hello and not feel like I'm not writing enough on the cards! :)

    The cards that I'd definitely find use for within the next month were I to win:

    * Thanks For Putting Up With Me - Mom
    * Shake Your Bootie Card
    * Be a Fruit Loop - Cereal Card
    * Nuts About You

    Thanks so much! Happy Friday.

  7. Happy birthday (weekend)!
    I would LOVE a holiday card that has something to do with wassailing--what an awesome tradition. Or the Jimmy Stewart classic, It's a Wonderful Life. New fav cards are: Get the Shell Outta Here, Too Legit to Quit, Well Done-Steak, and Drinking on Patios. smshenk (at) gmail (dot) com

  8. I love this giveaway! I would love holiday pun cards (and I like Suz's idea of some sort of "Its a wonderful life" card-- my favorite Christmas movie). I also have a sweet Jewish friend that I'd love to be able to send a funny hannukah card to!

    My 4 would be: Eat Drink & Be Married; You're my favorite husband; friends until old and senile- butterscotch; and this blows card.

  9. I don't have many clever ideas but the cards I like seem to be funny and not too holidayish. I like the other commenters idea on having small ones for my co-workers. Or even small ones that I can leave around the house for kids/family/boyfriend.
    For the cards I like: OMFG, Awesomeness percentile, j'adore and You are here.

  10. Hmmm, holiday card ideas...how about:
    Christmas:
    1. You Deck My Halls
    2. You're The Star At The Top of My Tree
    3. You're My Guiding Light
    4. Happy Holly-days!
    5. You Make My Hearth Hot (get it? while roasting chestnuts?)

    New Year's:
    6. This Is Where My New Year's Resolutions Would Be Without You (then have a picture of a person lost in a desert in the hot sun)
    7. Kiss Me At Midnight (then have a picture of lips or two people kissing and maybe some sparklers for New Year's)

    Hope you like the ideas :)

    My favorite cards are: You're My Favorite Nut, Hey There Sailor, You Turn All My Lemons Into Lemonade, and People I'd Like To Punch In The Face Card :D

    Man, it was really hard to pick 4 favorites! You have so many great ones!!!

  13. For the Holiday Cards:
    I like whimsical cards - I'd really like to find something with elves, etc that aren't geared towards kids. Anything that can be "holiday" and not specifically XMAS related or not.

    For calendars - I like graphic prints rather than say, Pugs dressed as witches or something.

    my email: mcline00@gmail.com

    from the cards:
    Hot cup of STFU
    Welp
    If all else fails - marry rich
    Silver lining to my cloud

    Love the cards!

  15. Hi! I seriously can't get over your fantastic service on my last 4-pack order :) I don't really have many ideas, but I have a co-worker who has an unhealthy obsession with bacon, so we all like to collect bacon-related things for him. A bacon-themed card would be great!


    Cards I'd Love:
    - Chocolate Won't Get You Pregnant
    - Fine Piece of Ace
    - Friends Until Old and Senile
    - Women Belong in the House

  16. Hi! Love love love your cards. I'm a teacher so I like "teacher humor." I'm not very "witty"...even though I'd like to think I am. So I'd like to see cards I could give to my co-workers during birthdays or the holiday months. It's better when the card does all the talking!

    If I were to just by chance win:
    1. You Complete Me - Peanut Butter and Jelly Card
    2. You Two Make a Great Pear
    3. Awesomeness Percentile
    4. Eat Drink and Be Married

  17. I love your cards. My fave i bought so far was the butterscotch card. You seem to take the words right out of my mouth. I think you should do some smart ass ones like "wether i've been good or bad my gift better not suck". My husband would laugh if he recieved that.

    Love snooks
    Thank goodness your still older than me
    If eating meet is wrong
    I have alot of your cards so surprise me with the last one.

  19. Keli, ooh how fun..I just love the giveaway stuff you are doing...For a calendar I like the idea of your top selling cards listed out...you know like January could be "stay classy" or "you're just grate" because they are funny, yet tasteful enough to hang in your cube at work.

    The 4 cards I love most:
    Check out one like a library card
    Missing You - with the "U" missing
    Favorite Nut
    Stay Classy
