Giveaway: 315thomas

{There is a small change on how I'm running the giveaway this weekend so please make sure to read entry rules.}
Happy weekend to you all! This weekend brings me work, a show tonight, a going away party Saturday night, and a BBQ on Sunday. Whoa, it's going to be a busy one. I'm also going to try to catch up on some DIY projects, but I'll need to sleep at some point so we'll see.

This weekends giveaway comes to you from 315thomas:
My first thought when browsing Lesley's lovely Etsy shop was that she uses some of my favorite imagery to adorn her paper goods (i.e. deer, doilies, keys, birds, cameos).
Hello deer...petite notecard set
Ummm, hello? Love at first sight.
Lesley describes her creations as "modern designs with vintage flair." I couldn't agree more.
The GOOD news for you is that 315thomas is giving away, to one Down and Out Chic reader, a choice of sketchbook...
Will you choose the damask, paper doilies, colorful keys, or cameo sketchbook? Each of these gorgeous sketchbooks "contains 40 blank pages of 100% recycled text weight paper, and the cover is printed with archival inks onto 100% recycled cover weight card stock."





Along with your choice of sketchbook, the winner also gets a set of text print gift tags to use for your next gift or paper project! *Please note that these are randomly picked by Lesley so prints will vary.
This is an awesome giveaway and I'm making it even easier to enter...here are the "rules."
1) I'm opening this giveaway up to EVERYONE, however, make sure that you leave me an e-mail address if you don't have an account I can easily find. If I cannot get in touch with you another winner will be drawn!
2)If you link to this giveaway leave a SECOND comment so you can be entered twice telling me you've linked it. (pssssssttt....this will drastically increase your chances, just make sure you leave two separate comments).
3) Visit 315thomas and tell me what you think. You can also see Lesley's blog here.
4) Leave a comment on this post. *If you leave a comment without addressing the work, it will be discarded. It's super easy!
Good luck and thank you for reading!

  24. Christina- once again you have great finds. Amidst a hectic schedule!
    Very much enjoyed visiting 315Thomas and am especially fond of the anemone as it seems a fun departure from coral- but still of the sea. And the paper doilies- such great designs!

  48. Lesley's blog is fabulous, as are her designs. I am so envious of her e-bay score with those fantastic vintage lace shoes - WHAT A BARGAIN!!! Liked what she had to say about MJ too... I can't say that I was his #1 fan but still have to acknowledge the great influence he had on my own childhoon and times.
    Thanks too to you for this giveaway... good to know that you survived the muffin eating incident - of course totally gross - but in a good funny way :)
