bookbound giveaway

Giveaway #9

We're excited about the "little birdie" giveaway we have for you today! Sarah Nielsen is a book binding artist and graphic designer, and her Etsy shop Book Bound is truly unique! We love it all from pretty hand-sewn books to printable stationery to customizable baby announcements. Here are a few samples of her work.




Amazing, huh? Love her style! We were intrigued by the printable stationery. Sarah told us, "It is truly the gift that keeps giving because once you have the pdf template, you can print to your heart's desire. Can life get better?!"

We don't think so. That's why we're offering you a chance to win the "Red Wing Bird" printable stationery set (shown below) from Book Bound. The PDF template includes rectangular gift tags, 2" circle tags, 8.5" by 11" stationery, and flat note cards. Wanna win it? Visit the Book Bound Etsy shop and leave us a comment with your favorite product. Just do it by Wednesday, April 29 at 11:59 pm PST. Good luck!
