I have some Fabulous Find Blog Candy to share! The post below talks about the secret to paper piercing perfection {say that 5 times fast}, which got me motivated. I LOVE paper piercing and have been searching for a good & cheap circle template for awhile. I found a great one for swirls that has been a lot of fun, but alas, no circles. I will say that I have wondered before if "those plastic frame things from the needlework section" would work, but never while I am actually AT the store to check them out. {Only at 3 AM when I can't sleep!} Since Melanie said she got hers at Hobby Lobby, I snuck over there today specifically to find these -- and look!
A 4.5" diameter circle, a 3" diameter circle, a small heart and a 4" square. I bought all the different options because I have no self control! These come in PACKS OF 10. Oooohhhh....yes, I think you see where I am going with this. Of course I had to set aside one set for my friend Heather, so that leaves 8 sets up for grabs! To enter, just leave a comment here on this post, and I'll use random.org to decide the 8 winners next Tuesday May 20th at 10 AM central time. {Assuming I get at least 8 entries, LOL!!}
Oh that's fantastic...because I too forget to look for them when I'm actually AT the store!!! Awesome. I hope I'm one of the lucky ones!
ReplyDeleteWell, how cool is that? Pick me, pick me! I'd love to give these a try! :)
ReplyDeleteOh wow! That's such a great idea--I wish I'd thought of it at 3am, or anytime, really. Paper piercing (that looks OK) is something I've struggled with for awhile now so winning this would be the coolest thing ever. Thanks for the opportunity to win!

I guess great minds think alike. I thought I was new and inventive because I have the 9.5 inch circle and a heart. I use the circle to make a SB of me. These really worked great, I love them.
ReplyDeleteI would love those.
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a Hobby Lobby here. ; - (
OHH...how neat! I have been wanting to try my hand a paper piercing but dont have a template!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a chance Jennifer...
