Prague 2011 Swaps and a Giveaway

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED
Oh my goodness, I will be in Prague on the European Incentive Trip as you read this post. From the moment I achieved this amazing reward last September I still haven't been able to fully accept the fact that I'd made it. But here I am, 4 hours before I leave for the airport writing this post still thinking it's a dream! One of the best parts is meeting up with all the other very talented achievers. In the last 3 years of being a Demonstrator I've found some amazing friends through Stampin' Up! and I can't wait to see them again!!! Of course there has to be swapping that takes place so here's what I've made for everyone - my good old owl keyrings in their own little box. Hope they like.

Now I have 10 of these litte cuties to give away. If you would like a chance to receive one then please leave a comment below. I'll randomly draw 10 names next Tues so pop back to see if you're a winner. Good luck!

See you next week with photo's of my trip!
