HAPPY HANDY HIPPO DAY!! WEEK 1

Good morning Everyone

Who said Monday can’t be a happy day?   In fact “happy” is an under-statement  .. .. I am darn right ecstatic!!!

From now on, and for the next few months,  Monday is going to be my “HAPPY HANDY HIPPO DAY!!!”

I have been waiting for this “happy day” to arrive for a few weeks now so that I can share with you all my exciting happy news!!

I was asked a little while back by the lovely Kerry from Handy Hippo if I would work with them for six months in promoting the crafty goodies that Handy Hippo sell on-line.  What an honour and a treat .. .. .. how could I refuse??!!!    Thank you so much Kerry xx   I just know I am going to love doing this so very, very much!!

You only have to take a look at the on-line store to see that it is jam packed full of all the lovely crafty things I love.  If I owned a craft store these are the things I would fill it with (and I would lock myself in at night and weekends to play with all the stock LOL!!).

I asked Kerry if there was a company bio I could post so I could introduce Handy Hippo to those of you who haven't come across them before.  This is what I was sent:

Handy Hippo is a friendly online craft supplies shop with a great range of rubber stamps and other card making goodies - including plenty of embossing folders and dies for the Cuttlebug. Their website has lots of information on crafting techniques, plus a great selection of free card project ideas to suit crafters of all abilities.

But lots of you will have already heard of them I am sure, as they have been voted the best on-line craft retailer every year since 2007.

So yes, you will find that Handy Hippo is all of the above .. .. but much more besides .. .. and with lots of great ideas and plans for the future I know it is a place you are going to want to visit regularly.

Take a stroll over and have a look for yourself .. .. .. ..  but not until you have had a peep at a little launch project I have put together to mark this special day.

Everything I have used here is available from Handy Hippo and if you would like to make the same project then simply click on the magic button below and it will take you directly to a shopping cart that contains everything you would need to make it .. .. you can simply remove any of the items that you already have in your craft stash.   How great is that?   

Of course you can also add any other items you might like to purchase too.

For one week only you can also claim a 20% discount when spending over £25 simply by entering the code below at the checkout:

AWH20

But remember that this discount code will end at midnight on Sunday 11th September 20011

I hope you like my first project and I will be here again next Monday with my second project.  Monday’s have just suddenly got a whole lot better don’t you think?   If there is anything you would like to know about my first project or how I made it then please ask away.

As a special launch present Handy Hippo are offering one lucky person a £10 voucher to spend in store.

To be in with a chance of winning the gift voucher prize then please leave a comment on this post and also  sign up to receive the Handy Hippo newsletter ,  which you can do  here .. .. .. then Kerry will look through the comments on my blog next Monday and choose someone to receive a £10 voucher to spend in the store (UK residents only please).  But you do need to do both  .. .. leave a comment on this post and sign up for the newsletter.

Signing up to the newsletter in itself is like winning a prize as you will be informed of the on-line sales and special offers .. .. and we all need to stretch our crafty spends out don’t we!!

Gosh .. .. it is just like Christmas!!

Good luck everyone ... ...  have a good week and off you go to sign up for that newsletter LOL!!

Love

(and all the lovely friendly people at Handy Hippo)
