My Exciting New Venture: GiftCardGirlfriend.com

My sister Shelley and I have just launched a fun new venture for us, revolving around something Shelley feels passionate about: GIFT CARDS! And who doesn’t love getting a gift card? It could be one of our favorite gifts to give, but often times our friends and family feel that by giving a gift card, they’ve lacked thought. Gift Card Girlfriend is a resource for CHEAP and fun, thoughtful ways to give a giftcard and still get the “oohs and aahs”.

Here’s a sneak peak

Cookie dough, bread dough, or Play-Doh attached to your gift card “dough”.

Smarties candy or Smart Water for the graduate.

We “whisk” you a Merry Christmas {Happy Birthday, Happy Anniversary…}

No, we’re not selling you anything

Just giving you fun new ideas on how to give a THOUGHTFUL gift card. We’re calling it “guilt-free gift carding” because it’s more than stopping by the store on the way to the party.

Please, play along

Be a doll and fan us on our brand-spanking-new Facebook page, Follow us on Twitter, and hop by the website and comment on our blog. Shelley has been posting some REALLY good ideas… do me a solid and tell her you popped by. Oh, and subscribe to our blog!

ENTER THE GIVEAWAY

Of course, it’s a gift card. We know you’ll love it. Leave a comment on the Gift Card Girlfriend blog post to enter to win!

Bright Side Project: The kinks are out!

Over the last few weeks I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jules and Tristan, new blog friends on the redesign and migration of their communal blog from Typepad to Wordpress. The launch took place two weeks ago, and I think we got all the kinks out. The migration from Typepad wasn’t as painless as it is from Blogspot, but everything has been sorted out.

If you haven’t been to The Bright Side Project, please stop by. These two verysmartandwitty girls plan *DAILY GIVEAWAYS* with seriously fabulous stuff. They post their winners weekly, and all you have to do is answer the daily question to win.

GOOD LUCK!
