I love using my event contacts to show you how cool this stuff is and how it can be used for things other than parties. Have you ever thought about having your Christmas cards professionally addressed? This isn’t just for wedding invites, baby. Or how about getting real holiday return address stickers (not just the freebies from the animal shelter)? Let me introduce you to one of my oh so talented calligraphers, Michele. She will be hand addressing 50 envelopes for you. She is booked 6 months ahead for wedding invites, but I contacted her several months ago and secured a week on her schedule for this giveaway. And as an added bonus you are getting 72 return address stickers from the darling collection of Sarah + Abraham, one of my favorite invitation designers. All of this is my treat, a little present for you to kick off the holidays.

Here’s what you need to do:

1. Make sure that you are really sending out cards this holiday season. This is a one time shot; I have only the week of November 22, 2009 booked.

2. If you win, have 50 envelopes and your address list ready to go by mid-November to be mailed to NYC by November 22 (not your pictures or cards–she only needs the envelopes and list).

3. Leave me a comment with your email address in the form so that I can contact you when you win.

Sound good? Now you have no excuse to not send out Christmas/holiday cards because the hard part will be done for you. Confused? Leave a question with your comment or send me an email and I’ll answer them. I’ll pick a random winner on Friday morning, November 13.

  2. SO helpful! This is the one thing that I procrastinate on during the Christmas season due to thinking that I can do it an evening when the kids are asleep and my husband is watching T.V. Thanks for this giveaway!
