There is an inscription on the inside cover that reads:

So what's even better than the super exciting cover...
And even more exciting back cover...
IS WHAT'S inside. Here are Some treasures that are tucked among the pages of this book. How cool is that, right? I LOVE Treasures!
So would you like to own this book?
You do?
Here you go. These are the directions. Pretty simple this time:

Good Luck!

First of all, Jenni, you look positively RAVISHING in these photos! And I'm not saying this to get any extra points (although, I'd never turn them down!!). Of course, I'm one of your loyal followers. Come to think of it, you won my only contest to date, so wouldn't it follow that I'd win yours? (*grin*wink*) I'll add this on my next blog posting and be sure to let you know.;-)
ReplyDeleteDid I mention I love antique books?
Debra--LOL! Flattery gets you everywhere! LOL! And I ALWAYS look better at night... I'm such a night owl! Thanks! And, I LOVE antique books too! I love them so much, that it hit me--OMGosh! I wonder if my friends like antique books too? LOL! They're sooo cheap here. I've just collected a bunch for blog giveaways, that way I won't be tempted to keep them. I already have a ton!

ReplyDeleteOf course I already follow your blog, duh!!
And I'd love to have that antique book, actually, if I win I'm going to give it to my mom, she would love it even more than I would.
Love the blog! Your black and white background is the same design as certificate paper I purchased on Wednesday! Love the look and feel. Great idea to give away classics! Old books are full of charm and a few other gems as well. Awesome story about your son, I love the way children are so straight-forward.
