Day 3 Giveaway: Cats!

Filed under Giveaways, Sale

Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. But you can try searching on the same names (as links below) on the new site.

Oh my… I probably have enough cats to do a week’s worth of Giveaways. But today’s selection is a good batch (a little Puss in Boots, a little Cat the Fiddle…)

There will be 1 runner-up for today’s Giveaway, and they’ll receive a slightly different set than the norm (“the norm” being a subset of the main Giveaway… more on that later).

Puss in Boots Die-Cut Storybook
New & on Sale! A sweet little book with the story of Puss in Boots. Includes both color and sepia monotone pictures. 10″ tall. 12 pages excluding covers.

Here’s a little trivia: The story of Puss in Boots is over 450 years old.

Cats with Hearts Scraps
New & on Sale! Some cat musicians are in there, too. 6″ x 9″ sheet. Die-cut and embossed. Imported from Germany.

2 Pewter Cat Head Beads
New & on Sale! Antiqued cast pewter beads. Approx. 1cm wide (about 7/16″). The hole runs horizontally (just below his ears). The cat face is on both sides.

2 Porcelain Lucky Cat Beads
New & on Sale! Attract good luck with Maneki Neko, or beckoning cat porcelain beads. The “lucky cat” is commonly used in Japanese and Chinese businesses to draw in customers and promote good fortune.

2 Small Die-Cut Chipboard Cat & Mouse Keychains
On Sale! Set of 4 small, die-cut, heavy chipboard cats, mouse, fishbone. Approx. 2″ x 2″.

2 Copper Cat & the Fiddle Charms
On Sale! Approx. 7/8″ tall.

Fairy Tale Paper Dolls Unmounted Rubber Stamp Set (with 2 Puss in Boots Images)
Red Riding Hood, Mother Goose and Little Bo Peep costumes.
Plus Puss Putting on Boots, Puss in Boots with Hat, Puss in Boots Text, and The Cat & the Fiddle Text.

This is the last set of these stamps. But a few of these images are still available separately. Which brings me to the Runner-up Giveaway for today: they’ll receive the 2 copper cat charms, and 2 chipboard cat keychains, and 2 porcelain lucky cat beads BUT instead of the rubber stamp set, they receive these 4 individual unmounted stamps:
Medium Cat & Fiddle, Cat & the Fiddle Text, Puss in Boots with Hat, and Puss in Boots Text (see pic at right).

The next 4 items are not in the Giveaway, but related and On Sale!

Porcelain Russian Doll Beads
New! With a look similar to the traditional Russian nesting dolls, these beads have a nice combination of decals and hand-painted details. Handmade: size, shape and colors may vary.

18 Cats Scraps
New! 6″ x 9″ sheet. Die-cut and embossed. Imported from Germany.

Kittens/Snowballs Rubber Stamp
A little maniacal, but adorable, 3 little kittens. Approx. 2-3/8″ x 2-3/8″

The Dog Did It Rubber Stamp
What a mischievous little face! Approx. 2″ x 2″

Licensed from the fabulous Teri Calia.

I’m running late so I’ll post the Day 2 winners mid-day on Monday (today to most of you non-vampire types).

Here’s the recap of the Giveaway Rules.

So leave me a comment and tell your friends.

    Oh yes, need my cat things. Cats are the best…but I am also partial to dogs. Not a cat nor a dog person. I’ll have both. Hope I win today’s giveaway.

  22. maxkincora says:

    Well, you can’t have too many cats, can you? I’m wondering if you’ll ever have something at Alpha Stamps that I don’t want to own.

  32. taradid says:

    Well, these are certainly the cat’s meow! Please officially consider me entered for all the wonderful kitty items. Thanks! ~Tara D.

  33. Gosh and Golly, this is as if you created this giveaway just for me. I adore kitties. I just lost my baby boy, my heart, my Silky Terrier, Cody, so now it is just me and my 5 oh -so -loved kitty babies.

    I am an active worker for animal rights (non violent -100%) and most people do not value kitties/cats at all. Most people see them as disposable. They move and just leave them. They still drown their babies. They shoot them with beebee guns. Horrible.

    This is a wonderful tribute to a beautiful highly intelligent loving creation. Thank you!!!Marsha

  47. marypatp says:

    Cats scrap is good, very good. And I loved “the dog did it” stamp. Looks just like my cat Sam and I’m sure that’s what he would say if he still had his good doggie friend Sake.

  56. Jan Davis says:

    Would make great embellishments for a scrapbook of my cats. One cat will not come out if I call her but does come rub against me if I recite Hey Diddle Diddle. This is the same cat that takes a shower.

  57. InkPattie says:

    I love the kitties! I plan to be a Cat Lady when I’m older. I only have three right now…

  58. krycek says:

    ^ had to chuckle at kitty who showers. We have a kitty who will hop in the bath with you if you don’t secure the bathroom door properly.

    Thanks for another fabu giveaway!
