Treasure Thursday – Baggu Bag Giveaway *CLOSED*

tt I’m back with my Treasure Thursday giveaways! Today I will introduce you to Baggu Bags.
Baggu is a small team of designers, and entrepreneurs, founded on the principle that good design should be functional, beautiful and affordable. Their goal is to make basic products that fill lots of uses, not just one, so you can own less stuff. They believe in bright colors, high style, quality materials, and economy of use.  

Based on the form of the iconic plastic grocery bag, a Baggu does the same job without harming the environment.  It will replace all of the disposable bags in your life, not just plastic grocery bags. You can use it for a lot of things like clothes shopping, a quick trip to the drug store, takeout food or trips to the flea market. Aside from shopping, Baggus are good for travel, books, the gym, gifts, gift wrap, the beach, the trail, the mountains, the city, the country.
Using one Baggu for one year replaces 300 to 700 disposable bags.
GIVEAWAY!
Baggu is giving away solid colored Baggu bag (color of winner’s choice).

Treasure Thursday - Christmas Cards for 2010

tt

I love sending and receiving postcards but for a long time  haven’t sent out any Christmas cards. So this year, I was thinking to start a new tradition in our family of three ( if you include the cat) - I’m planning to send out our first Christmas cards.

I have been searching for some card designs past few weeks and found some great offers on Shutterfly. Just have a look at their new Christmas card collection and choose between folded greeting cards, flat stationery and flat photo cards. They also offer cute Christmas gift tags and party invitations. The hardest part is to select the favorite design because they offer more than 700 different cards.

Here are some of my favorite designs:

STATIONERYCARD_5x5-31052-2277-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v1281031349000106738STATIONERYCARD_FOLDED_5x7-27137-2464-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128096275700096875 STATIONERYCARD_5x5-31046-2550-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v1281031065000118724

I like them because designs are elegant, simple and really festive. That’s how I want my cards to be.

One thing that I really love about Shutterfly is that they have special tarjetas de Navidad for Spanish speaking people too, that’s exactly what I need for my friends here.

PHOTOCARD-146-4281-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209222700098503 STATIONERYCARD_5x5-31053-2698-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v1281031344000158436 PHOTOCARD-50-4191-MERCHLARGE_FRONT-v128209203300074653

  Let me know which designs do you like! :)
