Two Winners

Good morning everyone (I can't say ladies anymore since we had our first male comment...... Hi Jon!), anyway talk about a hard choice. Everyone had fabulous ideas and I can't wait to try some of them myself...... and to see what you do with fabric whether you're one of the winners or not!

OK, so to the matter at hand. I said I would pick my favorites and the first is lynzei who said, "I'd make yo-yos, ruched flowers, die cuts, little stuffed creatures, backgrounds for name frames, oh and I'd need to fashion a nifty retro apron to wear while I make all my pretty projects. I'd craft and sing, "I feel pretty, oh so pretty..."

I just had to pick this entry because I love the ideas and I love the song! Actually, this was the theme movie for Cosmo Cricket heading up to CHA winter. I sent it to everyone in the office.


For the second pick, I choose Shari who said, "I'm so excited to see another line of Fabric from Cosmo Cricket!!! Sewing was my first love before stamps and paper! I love working on projects that combine the three. This fabric would be great for fabric postcards!" I picked her because I would love to see fabric postcards!

Other ideas that I thought were fabulous included running it through a die-cutting machine, using it to reinforce the spines of paper albums and printing on it.... of course!

I continue to play with it myself. Look at my album so far!

And that's not the best part! Eric and I went to the local Kmart Photo Booth (they have doubled the price to $2!) and got these super fun photos that I plan to use. Don't they just crack you up! I highly recommend this. Even at double the price it is a fun and inexpensive date!


Finally, if you are one of the lucky winners, email your address to kristen@cosmocricket.com and we'll send you your prize! But, if you're not one of the winners, don't worry because tomorrow you'll have a chance to see a sneak peek of our newest line and maybe even win some of it!!

$2 for one strip? Wow... That's CHEAP! Last time I passed a photo booth in Sweden it was about 9.35 for one strip. I have to move to the US for sure!! *grins*

Lulu said...

I agree, $2 is cheap :) They are$4 here! But we love them all the same. They tend to always be a bit over exposed, and very flattering. hehe. Congrats to the winners!!!

$2 is cheap, at the arcade they are usually $4 or more

Your little album just needs those pictures stuck in, Julie!
Those snaps are so FUN! Our local Kmart doesn't have a photobooth~I only see them at the Fair for $4.00, so stop complaining about the price doubled to $2~from the looks of your comments so far, that is cheap!

Hmmm, I wonder If I could get hubby to climb into one of those photo booths with me.
Thank you so much for picking me. I feel pretty-pretty lucky! I'm so excited to get my paws on that gorgeous fabric. Ooh, so many ideas twirling inside my head. I can't wait to touch and feel it. It's so pretty, oh so pretty...
