A Giveaway???! At the Duck and Wheel???!

I was at my niece's graduation party earlier in the summer when I ran into some of the long lost relatives. They weren't lost--I sorta was, but it didn't matter, it sure was nice to see them after so many years.

Once such find was my cousin, Tracy. She's my cousin....uh....like a few times over, but who cares? Either way, she's a hoot. She's all bubbly and cute and has this sweet family and talks all fun-like. She and I were chatting it up and nobody could get a word in edgewise--it was great.

Tracy is "colorful", which is Joe's way of describing most of my family members. You see, his family is what I call "beige"--they talk about safe things like weather and golf scores. My family....well, we all have opinions and we all talk really loud and laugh even louder. There is no beige in my family--we are all fun, colorful characters.

So, while I'm chattin' it up with Tracy, we both compare notes and find out that while I blog, she has a website and a blog for her business:

(Spiffy, eh?)

Turns out girlfriend is rockin' it with these really cool cards that she makes. And they are sweet!

There is some talented chickies in our family--you can go to her website and check it out.

So, I tell Tracy that I dig her stuff and that I'm gonna do a big pitch at the Duck and Wheel for her website. And then I decided that we need to do a big giveaway too. Now I'm excited AND she's excited--which just leads us to more talking and laughing and being all animated.

I could tell you all about my super cool cousin, Tracy, and her business, but I think she writes it best:

"Sincerely Yours by Tracy is a specialty greeting card company that designs customized, hand crafted cards for all special occasions. We enjoy designing unique, One of A Kind invitations, announcements and custom notecard packs that you are not able to find elsewhere....

In addition to a variety of high-quality note cards, we offer a one-of-a-kind greeting card service, Unforgettable Cards. Unforgettable Cards will automatically manage your greeting card needs all year long. Each card is individually designed and customized for each person. Whether personal or professional, this is a convenient and memorable way to recognize the special people in your life.

Unforgettable Cards is a greeting card service that will keep track of all of your greeting card needs, all year long. What makes this service special is that each card is individually customized for each person for any occasion. You provide us the name, occasion, month, and special interests for each card, and we will design the perfect hand crafted greeting card. We take time to incorporate their hobbies etc. into the design of the card so they know that card was made JUST FOR THEM! We want to WOW each person that opens up a card from Sincerely Yours!! And best of all, we will do this for you every year, automatically."

Cool, eh? I like the cards and the concept. I like that you can find specials on her Facebook page and that she is so darn quick with her orders. And the cards---oooh, the cards.

So, to celebrate the reunion of those wacky Zacker/Shukes girls--I'm going all out and having a giveaway at the Duck and Wheel. Yep, believe it or not, being a pally has its privileges.

There will be no posting requirements, no guessing my Grandmother's name, no math problems, or changing of tires in order to win. All that I am doing is asking you to pop on over to Tracy's site, pick out a package of notecards that you would like, come back here and leave me a note of what you would like to have if I draw your name. I'm gonna treat TWO of you wacky readers if you are so inclined to join in the fun.

Please go over and see what Tracy creates--I think you are going to like it. I'm gonna let this giveaway ride for the weekend and do the drawing on Tuesday. I can't wait to see who wins!


Oh--happy weekend, pallies! I'm off on adventures and the quest for blog posts--I'm sure you are too. Who knows, maybe I'll find some more fun relatives.
