give away give away give away!

Hey bloggers!
I've decided to do a give away. 
It's been forever since I've done one.
I was going through my supplies, doing some storage, moving around and purging.
I've worked on design teams and I've collected so much stuff that I just can't ever use it all, you know?
So I'm giving some away, selling some. 
In this give away I have Crafty Secrets Homemade, Christmas and Birds Images and Journal Note pads.
CS Birds and Blossoms 3D Shadow Box Die and cards kit.
CS Altered Fairies 3D Shadow Box Die kit both by Vicki Chrisman.
 CS Feathered Friends Cotton Scraps
CS Best Buds Vintage Postcard Kit
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What do you think about putting gently used stamp sets in give away's?
In the comments section leave me an answer to that question and I'll pick a winner Monday, Nov.11th.
Please leave me your contact info so I can get your goods to you!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks for playing along!

Hi Pam,

I don't think there is anything wrong with putting a used stamp in a giveaway. You may no longer want to use it, but it would be new to someone else.

P.S. Thanks for the great giveaway and the chance to win.

I think it's always great to share? I exchange stamps with friends quite often.

I think it is a great idea!! Might be used to you but it would be new to me! I get a lot of craft supplies at yard sales and I love them all the same! Thanks for such a unique giveaway and thanks for sharing your work with us.

I think it perfectly fine to giveaway used stamps. They are still useable and a treat to receive. Thank you for sharing.

I think it is great to "recycle". This age is such a "throw away" generation. So, to pass on items you no longer use or need is like Christmas to someone else. GREAT idea!!

Tara said...

I would love to win something, used or not. Rubber stamps do go bad! They just get more loved : )

Free is free. Relighting is fine. I am grateful for any new stamps and elements to play with. Limited budgets and all. My friends and I do it all the time. I would say.... Thank You Sooooooo Much !

I don't think there is anything wrong with putting gently used stamps in a giveaway. Almost all of my wood stamps fit that category! They were bought "gently used".

Great idea! In fact, I'd be glad to send you some of my gently used so you could give them away!!!!! Our interests change over time but what's old to me is new to someone else! Go for it! Thanks for sharing the love!

I love those Vintage Postcards and Vicki's little frames are amazing. We routinely give away used stamps at our shoe box swaps as they are still new to someone else. I think it is fun also to have stamp swaps with friends!

I would be thrilled to get a give away of gently used stamps. I know I have stamps whose possibilities I have exhausted or will simply never use that someone else might love, that I'd like to give away.

Thanks for the chance to win! I'd be more then happy to be the new home of your used stamps! Meredith245 at yahoo dot com

I think it is a great idea. In fact, I have often thought about how to run a "rent a stamp" store somewhere. Sometimes you buy a stamp and only can use it a very few times as it is specific, like Christmas card stamps. Once you have made them, you want to make something different the next year and then this years stamp sits and gathers dust. However, someone else could use it and pass it down from there.

Recycling is a good idea.

Hi Pam, I have to agree with the other ladies and say that I don't see why it shouldn't be ok to add them, so many of us crafters don't have an endless pocket and sometimes the kindness of others helps to enable a few additions to our supplies And especially when it comes to stamps they go on forever so I dont see a problem with sharing what you will no longer use and if people dont like it then they dont have to enter. Thanks for your generosity sweetie. Hugs xnx

I don't think there is anything wrong with that, if you can't use it anymore and someone else would love to play with it, I think that is a great thing, it is nice of you to share your goodies :)

sue K said...

I think it's a great idea!!! We live in an adult community and we periodically have "garage sales" withour paper craft ladies and they go VERY well!!!

Amy Passwater said...

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. Great idea!

I think the used stamps is a great idea!!! I would certainly love to win!!

Ava Gavloski said...

love the concept of recycle, perfect purging method...smile

Kate Yetter said...

Lovely goodies! I confess that I myself have included several gently used stamp sets in a giveaway that I had. I think its a great way to pass supplies on. I for one do not believe in throwing anything out when it comes to crafting!

Vic said...

I love the idea of giving away gently loved/used stamps. Thanks for a chance to win.

Kathy said...

There is nothing wrong with a gently used stamp. It is brand new to another user. I think your giveaway is great!!!!

Kee said...

As crafters, we are always looking to repurpose and give things new life...stamps aren't any different. :)
Thanks for thinking of us and sharing some of your goodies in this give away.

Unknown said...

Thanks for the chance to win some lovely goodies. I think it's okay to put used stamps in with goodies. It is a great way to reuse something that a person does not have a need for any more.

Alex King said...

Used stamps are fine, the first time I use one it has been inked!Thanks for your beautiful blog

Theresa said...

I pass on my stamps. Sending them out into the world to create again is a good thing. Your giveaway looks awesome. thanks as always for sharing.

Dee in N.H. said...

I think giving away used stamps is a great idea. They never go bad and someone else will have fun with them. Thanks for a chance to win the goodies and have a great weekend!

Pam what a wonderful thing to do in giving gently used stamps and other products. It is a good feeling to make others happy and especially to those that may not always have the means to get on a regular basis. I my self do not mind gently used stamps.:) Thanks for being so generous.

CraftyViolet said...

Nothing wrong with gently used stamps at all. I've bought some at the thrift store and garage sales and they work just fine. That looks like a fun prize package too.
