Rock, Paper, Trimmer

2009-02-09T21:02:00.000-08:00

Fiskars has a rockin' new tool, and it's called the Rock, Paper, Trimmer. This is a trimmer like no other- speakers for your MP3 player are built right into it! We took one of these new trimmers and passed it around to some of the fiskars design team to see what they could make using this trimmer. Fiskars 45mm rotary blades (that work in other 45mm trimmers and rotary fabric cutters) work in this trimmer, just another great feature it has to offer. Some other wonderful things about the trimmer's features are-

Music related features:* Universal connector plug fits into any headphone jack – allows you to play music from any portable music player (MP3, CD, Tape) or even laptop computer* Built-in speakers powered by your MP3 player – no need for batteries or outlets* Softgrip cradle for MP3 player – protects and holds your MP3 player while trimming

Cutting related features:* Softgrip blade carriage – comfortable right or left handed use* Paper grip under the guide rail keeps paper from moving while trimming – fewer mistakes in cutting* Replaceable 4-sided cutting strip – protects blades and prolongs sharpness* 45mm rotary blade format – several different decorative blades are available for unique cutting edge designs

Base Deck/Measuring Surface features:* Bold common card and photo sizes called out on the measuring surface – helps you quickly measure and cut to the proper dimensions* Peel off plastic film – protects the measuring surface* Carrying handle – easy to transport

This thing is pretty awesome! It's valued at $110! And there's more... there is a **Bonus on this auction: A Fiskars/Cloud 9 embellishement pack worth $30!!!

Gift Certificate to Bradford Portraits

2009-02-06T21:48:00.000-08:00

This is an *Amazing* prize!! Enter a raffle to win a portrait sitting with a 16x20 wall portrait on canvas from Bradford Portraits.

In today's world where most photographers are using the same digital techniques to enhance their portraits, Bradford has chosen a very different path.
Though digital is used at times, and sparingly only where and when it makes sense, Bradford prefers to use the classic techniques of the old world masters. The decision to choose oil based artistry applied by hand to the portrait over the much less expensive and faster digital technology distinctly sets Bradford apart from his peers. Just as a fine Rolex® watch made with classic swiss movement stands out in a sea of watches made with the more common quartz movement, the grandeur of the Bradford Portrait dramatically stands out as an original master work of true art.

Check out their website here: http://www.bradfordportraits.com/

This package is valued at $3000.

$25 for one ticket

OR $100 for 5 tickets

Created by the Arte du Blythe group on Yahoo, which was founded by
Shoshanah Jennings of Hannah Grey Curiosities & Drygoods
(www.hannahgrey.com) and Heather Simpson-Bluhm of Bluhm Studios
(http://www.bluhmstudios.com), both based in California. The book was
hosted by Gina Smith, group administrator, in Indiana. It features work
by well-known and published artists such as Vicky Breslin, Debbie Metti,
Angela Hoffman, Chelise Stroud-Hery (founder of ZNE), Shelly Mundel,
Maija Lepore, Heather Simpson-Bluhm, and Shoshanah Jennings. Artists
from the United States, Canada, and Israel sent submissions.

The book is a paper arts lover's dream or is perfect for a lover of Blythe, animals, dolls and/or good deeds.

A Place to Bark and Meow is mixed media artist Bernie Berlin's no-kill animal rescue in Tennessee. Bernie Berlin's blog is http://aplacetobark.blogspot.com. As she herself says, "I run a full-time dog rescue, taking in the dogs that have been abandoned, abused or police confiscated. I foster, retrain, transport & adopt. Cats are also welcome at my rescue. I am drawn to the unwanted, unloved and misunderstood. I am hoping to educate and effect change for the animals that do not have a voice of their own."

A Place to Bark and Meow was one of the five top national finalists in last year's Parade magazine charity profile/fund-raiser. To date 2,453 people have donated $44,527 to AP2B, but the needs are constant as Bernie travels to other states to rescue abandoned, abused and injured animals, rehabilitating them (often with costly veterinary bills and medicines) and then placing them in loving homes.

Bernie currently specializes in Faberge-style eggs and is the author of the popular Artist Trading Card Workshop. She will send a special surprise to be enclosed with the 'fat book' for the winner.

Auction ends October 15th so bid now!! Simply leave a comment in the comments section of this post with your bid amount and email address. We will contact the winner after October 15th. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to A Place to Bark.
