Handmade Sampler Giveaway -- Primitive Handcarved Crow Stamp DONE

Welcome to another Handmade Sampler Giveaway.    Today's giveaway is sponsored by Kristal Norton of Rags-n-Tags.

Rags-n-Tags offers original primitives and patterns by artist Kristal
Norton; as well as a few hard to find supplies such as mica flakes,
german glass glitter, and walnut ink. But, Kristal's latest adventure
in crafting is hand carved stamps. These stamps are a great way to add
a personal touch to all your crafts since they are hand carved, not
reproduced by machine. The thick linoleum that is used provides a
great surface for stamping and can be manipulated around many surfaces
since it doesn't need to be mounted. So they're cute, compact, one of
a kind, and versatile!

This giveaway is a Primitive Crow Stamp hand carved just for you! The
image measures about 2" wide, and 1" tall.

You can earn up to three entries by doing the following...

1. Visit Kristal's website,   http://www.rags-n-tags.com  and come back here and post a comment with your favorite item on her website. Be sure and leave your email address so we can contact you if you win.
