Oddball Press’ 2010 calendar is the second giveaway to coincide with the Calendar Swap and I’m a big fan of this one, folks. To have a chance at winning your very own pop over to Greedy Girl and leave your email address in the giveaway post. You have until the end of day Friday.
This week’s fabulous giveaway is courtesy of the sweet-as-pie Marta Dansie. You probably know her best from her blog, marta writes, but did you know she’s an amazing graphic designer/bookbinder/calligrapher and has an online shop? Cause she is and she does. The shop is marta designs and the goods? Well, nothing short of beautiful and impressive of course.
Lucky, lucky you – Marta is giving away one of her much sought after mini diaries! They measure in at a minute 5.5 x 4.25 inches and are designed with a fill in the blank format to capture your thoughts. Sixty dear diary pages of smooth white paper, printed with fine black print and saddle stitched by hand for you to jot in the details that matter.
To Enter, Tell Me: 1. About the last dream you had + can remember (and isn’t X-rated!) 2. Your email address to notify you if you win (those who do not will be disqualified) 3. Do it all before Monday, October 26th at 9am CST
In the mean time, take a look around marta’s shop! This is her last batch of mini diaries before the holidays and they make great stocking stuffers, so maybe snatch up a few while you’re visiting. One can never be too prepared!
This Apple Pie Apple is completely and utterly nuts! I’m not really a fan of caramel apples (all of the caramel and apple getting stuck in between your teeth and whatnot), but I would make an exception for these beauties. YUM!
The 12 different illustrated months are printed on 100% recycled PCW, chlorine free papers. It comes with a reusable wood block holder made of reclaimed lumber which has a place for your stray pencil. And you can mail back your used pages to our studio where we will recycle them and give you a coupon for next year’s refill packet! Cards measure 4.25″ x 5″.
Here’s a quick and easy way to keep in tip top shape. Just peel the little variety sticker from every apple you eat and affix it to a square. Keep it interesting. Try a Belle De Boskoop, a Newtown Pippin, how about a Peasgood Nonsuch, or maybe a Turley Winesap. There’s no shortage of combinations and imagine how good you’ll feel, when, after a years time, you’ve filled each square with a colorful little sticker.
This is about as large a poster as you’re going to see coming off of a letterpress—at 18″ x 23″ it takes up almost an entire form. Run in two colors (Pantone 7532U and a light varnish) on a substantial Strathmore 130# cover weight stock, the impression made by the press gives this a wonderful tactile quality.
Use this lovely ready to print pdf in your own home. So easy to use, simply add some nice paper and a pretty ribbon and presto! a calendar for you or a gift for a friend (or both). This PDF comes set up with 2 months per page and a cover page. Final calendar size is 4.25 x 11″.
Each month is printed on 80# recycled white smooth finish cardstock, bound by a 1″ metal ring to complete this modern and eco friendly calendar. Pages measure 4.25″ x 11″.

This past weekend I: • watched the OU/Texas game • went shopping with my mom • bought 6 Christmas gifts (!) • read the most amazing book by my favorite author • cleaned (bleh) • bought a little silver foil Christmas tree for my office
Another one in the books, kids! I spent most of the week playing catch-up from having Monday off, but it was oh so worth it. Now I’m ready for the weekend: the OU/Texas football game, getting treat bags ready for Halloween and some time spent at the dog park. Have a happy weekend!
