"Its always more fun..."

...to share with everyone!"

Okay, so we were cleaning up at CHA and we had all of the extras from the make and takes sitting there. I was given the offer to take it home and use it up but I thought, "You know, there are SO many people who loved this stuff and could NOT wait to get their hands on it, so why dont you share it with those who do not have it already?" I shared my thoughts with the rest of the October Afternoon team and we all agreed that that would be so much fun. So we continued to add more to the pile piece by piece to give away to you! Everyone at the show was gone so we agreed that we'd do it on my blog instead. So here it is, this product is not that far away from shipping to everyone but who wouldnt love to have it NOW and before anyone else!?

Here are a few photos of what I have to give to you. Stamps and rubons from the make and take table, and the papers that were on display at the booth. How cool? Well we are gonna have to test your knowledge and see just how much you want these goodies, lol. There are some big fans out there, **cough cough Katrina cough** and I think its only fair and way more fun to have this all go to the ones who want it most. Plus, arent the things in life always better when you have earned them? : )

I will split the goods in two since there are two of each paper in the line and there will be two lucky winners. So here we go, whoever answers the most questions correctly first will win. yay, Im excited!

1. When did the first October Afternoon product become available to the public.
2. What kit club are the October Afternoon stamps featured in?
3. What was the booth number at CHA?
4. What type of products were released in the October Afternoon debut. (hint: there are 3)
5. What is the only thing you need to use to adhere an OA rubon to your project?
6. The October Afternoon stamps smell like _______________?
7. The October Afternoon stamps are made from the highest quality photopolymer and will NEVER ____________. (hint: its a color)
8. Currently, How many Design team members are there.

SO FUN! I am so excited to see all of your answers! If you do not know some of them, its all good! Answer the ones you do know and you could still win, you never know what everyone else knows! Does that make any sense? lol Guessing is fun too!

The fun wont stop until two people have guessed correctly, so keep on keepin' on!! And here's a little encouragement from little Aly, she loves you! (this photo was taken as I was typing up this post!) Try not to be too distracted by her adorableness. : ) Now if you could only smell her then you'd understand why I never get any scrapping done!

lyrics are Jack Johnson. From the Curious George soundtrack. Its awesome!

2. Story of my Own
3. 8408
4. Stamps, rub-ons, paper
5. Your fingernail!
6. Vanilla? I know the rub-ons smell like vanilla. Do the stamps smell like vanilla, too?
7. yellow
8. Hmm. The website says a design team call coming soon, so is it 0? Or is it the 7 on the SOMO DT? Am I thinking too much into it? Yeah. I'll say 0.

I would like to say none as they have a call out to be a DT, they have not been up and running as of yet so hard to say unless you have an inside track which I don't but most say there are 7 !members (I am not an insider so who knows)
Can I add these stamps sold me on buying the SOMO kits and I am thrilled they are going to be up and running on their own.
Thanks - C
