Birthday Giveaway: lots of lovely free things!

As it's my birthday this week, I thought it would be nice to have a super-special giveaway. So there's a whole bundle of felty goodness up for grabs for one lucky person...... a pink "I love tea" badge, a star rosette brooch, a lilac flower brooch, a fun necklace and a black moustache disguise (because everyone needs a moustache).

As always, I'm happy to ship internationally, so anyone can enter. Just leave a comment before midnight BST (British Summer Time) on Saturday 6th June on this post and I'll pick a winner at random on Sunday (7th June).

Please make sure you leave a name or pseudonym (no anonymous comments please!) and be sure to come back on Sunday to see if you got picked :)

Also TOMORROW I'm offering a special birthday discount in in all my shops! 10% off any order for 24 hours only! PLUS: a free gift will be sent with every discounted order.

The offer runs for the whole of tomorrow (June 3rd) - to qualify for the discount place an order in any of my shops and wish me Happy Birthday during Etsy or Paypal checkout and pay as normal, and I'll refund 10% of your order via Paypal (excludes shipping) and include a special gift in your parcel.
