giveaway to my twitter - y pals & a *tweet* little SALE!

(psst: here's a guilty pleasure of mine for you... i really think twitter is fun!)

i came across twitter earlier this year.i've gotta say - i kinda think it's really fun!
like many of you, i've seen the twitter phenomenon grow and grow of late.
i see twitter talked up everywhere... throughout the news, in all kinds of newspapers, radioshows, etc! woowee!

for me, the fun is i love sharing, in just 140 characters, what i'm up to! and reading, in just 140 characters, what other fun folks are doing. i've come to *know* a little bit more about so many fun crafters, work@home folks, mommies, etc thru fun twitter! it's a fun little getting to know you party, isn't it?

so in honour of that non-stop fun, i'm having a little giveaway & a sale!

on monday, may 18th, @ 9pm EST i'll use random.org to randomly select
TWO of my twitter followers
to each win a prize pack (in twitter fashion!)
