wanna clinch a clutch... GIVEAWAY!

{you know this has to be big... it's the first time i've ever used capital letters in my title...}

remember how i won this stunning clutch from hannah at aspire?!?


i received it in the mail yesterday.  insert happy, ecstatic, giddy face here.  oh wait, here you go:




ladies and gentleman {minus the gentleman because i'm certain no gentleman understands the beauty of a clutch or reads my blog}, this is even more gorgeous in person... if that's possible!!!  the quality is amazing.  ranja, over at charm design is an amazing clutch/pouch/purse/handbag maker!  i'm blown away.  and in love.

and you can be too.  you read that right.  charm design didn't want anyone to get left out.  
you can be the proud new owner of a clutch too!  
and you get to pick which one you want!  

the nitty gritty... how to enter:

{1} become a follower and tell me that you are following.  or, if you are already, leave a comment saying you are.  
{2} visit charm design and tell me which clutch {pouch} you'd pick if you win.  however, this could be difficult since it is very possible you will want every. single. one.  {please note: the bow tie pouches are not included in this giveaway.}
{3} blog about this giveaway and leave a comment telling me you did with the link to the post.

important: since i'm not in the business of handwriting everyone's entries, please make sure you leave a separate comment for each entry if you want them all to be counted!!!  thank you.

best of luck to each of you!  the giveaway will close friday morning, may 14th at 8 am {EST}.  the winner will be announced shortly thereafter.

happy mother's day weekend!

I'm in, I"m in, I'm in!!!! I loved that clutch. When Hannah put up the give-away I began to drool (ever so slightly) at that clutch. Being hr mother I knew I couldn't win...so I dropped her Mother's Day hints. :) So of course i must enter!

I love your blog, my friend. And I'm reallt blessed by you.

Oh brother! Just got back from the site, and you're so right! There's about 7 that I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Let's see, the Winter Love is quite Vintage and beautiful, I really like the Orchid in Light Green (remember how I said yesterday that green/pink really do it for me!?), and the Orchid in Chocolate, Wildflowers in Flax, and the Flower Stripes are all so delightfully fall-ish (my fav. season) I just can't make up my mind!
