Gooooood morning, world! Who’s ready for another giveaway?!
A few weeks ago, we did a Pin it to Win it and 20% off a few Chip Art alphabets. And this week, we’re doing the same thing, but with beautiful flowery Chip Art stamp sets. Rose, Daisy, and Vintage Floral.
Chip Art is our absolute favorite at Brave Girls Club and we even have a whole room in the Art Barn named “The Chip Art Room.” Their possibilities are so limitless… use them to add beautiful, debossed designs to chip board, leather, leather bracelets, clay, hardcover books, soft metals, canvas panels… the list goes on. These tools are a lifetime investment… and we know you’ll be addicted the second you touch them!
If you’re curiosity is yearning for more, we have a couple videos that will tell you ALL ABOUT it:
So now that you know a little bit more… take an online trip to the shoppe to check out the rest of the Chip Art supplies if you’d like! Our warehouse is flowing with an abundance of this stuff and it’ll be gone before we know it. But FIRST, pin your favorite flower stamps to Pinterest and perhaps you will win a set!
To enter the giveaway, just follow the usual ‘Pin it to Win it’ steps… here are the instructions if you haven’t done this before.
Choose your favorite image from this post and ‘pin’ it to Pinterest.
To make it super easy, there’s a little button at the top and bottom of each post that says “Pin It”, so just click that button and select the image you want to pin.
If you don’t have a Pinterest account yet, you will be guided through setting up a free account when you click on the “Pin It” icon. Or go to this link to join Pinterest.
Then come back to this post and comment, saying which Chip Art stamp set you pinned… and let us know something brave you did this weekend!
At noon on Tuesday (MDST) we’ll randomly choose a winner from the comments, verify the Pins over at Pinterest, and post the name of the winner right here in this post.
And don’t forget, if you don’t get lucky this time… These stamps are 20% off for the rest of the week only!

We typically do our Pin it to Win it giveaway on Mondays, but we’re going to give this one a head start and keep it going over the weekend… because it’s extra special!
Mother nature teaches us so many lessons, and it seems that our lives often line up with the seasons and the earth’s natural cycles. After a rough winter, the world literally restores its life… it’s the most beautiful and amazing thing. Springtime is in full bloom here in Idaho; everything is turning greener and fuller and more ALIVE as each day goes by. So this spring, what if you could give yourself your own life restoration? Sometimes we don’t even realize that we have been stuck in a cold, dark winter for so long… life is down there somewhere, it’s not gone forever… your most beautiful self and your truest dreams and desires are there… it all just needs a ‘springtime’ to come and restore your life to its prime.
And I’ll tell you what– we have got a springtime for YOU! Life Restoration (our incredible online class, formerly known as Soul Restoration 2) is starting on Tuesday, April 30th and we are going to give away TEN tuitions. This class will help you figure out the exact life you want to live, why you are not living it right now, and what you need to do each day to get there. We would love to have you come restore your life with us. Take a look at this video to see if it speaks to your heart:
So, what do you think? Is your life ready for its own spring? Are you ready to create the life you were meant to live?! Are you ready to live a life you LOVE? Through art and projects, you will be making tools that will help you identify your goals, commit to your goals and break your goals down into bit sized chunks. And before you know it, you will be doing all of the things you’ve always wanted to do. Life Restoration is a phenomenally fun, artsy, soulful, insightful, POWERFUL experience. It really is, and we wish every single one of you could win. But if you don’t, our wish is that you will think about signing up so you can be ALIVE again.
Here are some beautiful words from women who have taken Life Restoration:
My art journal from Life Restoration is something I treasure. It is filled with my “working papers” …where I worked out and figured out what my strengths are, what my weaknesses are, what I enjoy doing, what I don’t enjoy doing, people I want to be around, things I want to learn about, places I’d like to go…I realized that one of the things my soul was craving was music….I need more soul-stirring music in my life…I needed to listen to it and make it…I made GOALS, and Melody taught me how easy it could be to make plans to achieve those goals…Through the videos, Melody taught me to identify the things that had kept me from reaching my goals in the past… she called it my “Landmine Map”, and taught me to see those things happening in my life and get past them before they stopped me… My Life Restoration book is so important to me. I feel like a different person than I was a year ago. I was hidden from myself for a while…I was confused about who I should be, and now I feel like I have truly been restored to who I always was. It feels good to live this way…” – Kallie
I would have to say this is easily one of the best classes I have ever taken. Ever. One of the ones I learned the most in and grew the most in. I am the kind of person who pays attention. I would say I am aware. I listen to myself. I watch and observe and try to learn and grow. And, still, I learned so very much about myself in this class, it’s almost impossible to explain how much. I had revelation after revelation. – K. G.
It is amazing how this whole restoring process has made an impact on me in such a little time. – M
The message that you are communicating to all of us that we are important – the work is important – and our journey is important – not just to us but to you as well. What a precious gift to us all and how fortunate we are that you are in our lives guiding and cheering for us – as we are with you. My heart is filled with gratitude each time I engage in this work – for the gift you give us each week. So…thanks again. — S. C
I am so excited about my life!! This class has been WONDERFUL!!! Finding Brave Girls is helping me create and live the life I never thought possible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!! This workshop changed my life! I am more aware of who I am, of what makes me happy, sad, tired, frustrated, joyful, peace-filled…and I know what I can do about it now!! This is one class I would recommend to everyone!!! – L.A.

When we opened the Brave Girl Shoppe, we knew we not only wanted to sell beautiful things, but we wanted them to be beautifully packaged. So Melody got to work designing custom tissue paper. She worked hard, and as usual what she came up with is breath-takingly beautiful….
This tissue paper is not only the most perfect thing to wrap our packages in, it is also lovely for art projects.
Stephanie Ackerman used our tissue paper in this beautiful piece of art….
Aaaaaand (even though Christmas is past) we thought you’d love seeing the LOVELY Christmas ornaments with it. We hope you’ll visit Stephanie’s blog for lots of amazing ideas for any time of the year…
Well…we want to give some of this lovely stuff away today.
If you want to win it, tell us:
Which of the words on the Brave Girl tissue paper means the most to you?
In case you can’t see them, some of the words are:
courageous, authentic, lovely, true, incredible, soulful, happy,
amazing, phenomenal, inspiring, brilliant, extraordinary, brave,
strong, beautiful, gorgeous, kind, smart, sparkling, fabulous, fun, strong, sweet….
Leave your answer in the comments….either here or on our Facebook page. We’ll pick 5 winners at 5pm today (mountain time). FIVE!
Happy Weekend!!
love,
kathy

As promised, here is our 2nd giveaway for Valentine’s Day, and this one comes with a free pattern for EVERYONE so you can make your own stitched valentine heart!
Last week Melody and I spent a day with two of our dearest friends, Terry & Patrice…sitting on the couches in the Art Barn just MAKING things. We had the wood stove fired up and some great music playing, and it felt like the most luxurious day…know what I mean? I’m all in ‘stitching mode’ from Art School: Wings (yep, you can still get in!) so I stitched up these little wool Valentine hearts…Patrice had brought a pattern she had just designed for a stitched heart, so I stitched it on some pretty wool, stuffed it, and then kept going and added a few more wool hearts. They are so pretty just piled in a little tea cup or on a ‘girly’ plate.
SO…I would love to send these hearts to YOU. To enter the drawing, share with us your favorite LOVE SONG in the comments below. (Mine is Fields of Gold, Eva Cassidy’s version. Have you heard it?? SOOOO good.)
We’ll randomly choose a winner from the comments at the end of the day on Wednesday, February 6.
We have a few more giveaways coming between now and Valentine’s Day because we have to think of SOME way to let you know how much we love you and how happy we are that you are here with us.
Love,
kathy
PS. We’ll post the stitchery pattern with the winner’s name on Wednesday night.
Their possibilities are so limitless… use them to add beautiful, debossed designs to chip board, leather, leather bracelets, clay, hardcover books, soft metals, canvas panels… the list goes on. These tools are a lifetime investment… and we know you’ll be addicted the second you touch them!
