I finally have the complete set of baby shower goodies up on my Etsy shop! It seems that so many people I know are having babies these days so I felt inspired to make a baby shower kit of sorts. When I hosted a friends shower last year I had such a blast but it was quite the challange to come up with all the details. Hopefully this set will make planning a little easier for some of you.

This set, fondly named “Li’l Tweet”, is just the beggining of what I hope to offer in my shop but to celebrate I wanted to host a little give away! One lucky winner will recieve a Li’l Tweet Stitch Kit in one of four colors: green, pink, yellow or blue.

*To enter, just leave a comment below with your first name and last initial and tell us what you would do with your very own Li’l Tweet. You have until 11:59 PDT Thursday, April 2, to enter. The winner will be selected randomly on April 3rd and announced on Twig & Thistle, Monday, April 6th! Good luck!

NOTE: THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED

Today I’m thrilled to announce the beginning of a new weekly column here at t&t! I’ve been wanting to catalog all my finds at ffffound, an image-bookmarking web service, and what better way then to post them here! If you haven’t had the pleasure of visiting ffffound you MUST check it out. The exclusive service allows users to post and share their favorite images and then recommend images based on what the user clicks on. The best part is that each user will have a uniquely different experience each and every time! I seriously can spend hours clicking from one amazing image to the next. In this Friday column I will post a portion of my ffffound trail with links. I hope you all find it inspiring and fun! So, without further ado, here is week 1…

It’s been a while since I’ve visited one of my favorite letterpress design sites of all time, Elum. Boy was I happy that I popped over for a visit! I have always fancied her yellow and grey Aviary Desk Set so you can imagine my glee when I discovered she’d added two more sets! The Boudoir and Wood Grain are equally as beautiful. Each box contains folding note cards, flat note cards, stationary sheets, gift enclosures and envelopes! What a fabulous gift this would make!
