Sharpen Your Senses Giveaway

Lovers, as a child I was forever using my multi-colored Sharpies for doodling hearts, stars, and daisies on my Converse sneakers when I was supposed to be listening to my Algebra teacher drone on about the FOIL Method; now, though my Algebra days are behind me, I find myself constantly scribbling away in the margins of my notebooks (you can take a peek at one of my very own doodle pages at left) – thus the reason I was thrilled when Sharpie offered to send me a wide selection of their latest and greatest writing utensils as part of their Start Something New with Sharpie blogging program (which I have already used to decorate everything in my path – from totes to tanks). Even better? They’ve offered to give one (1) lucky reader her very own set of Sharpies!

That’s right, my loves! Café Fashionista has teamed up with Sharpie to bring one (1) starving artist his or her very own selection of Sharpies – including the Stained by Sharpie Fabric Markers, Sharpie Pens, Sharpie Mini Permanent Markers (my personal favorite), Sharpie Highlighters, and Sharpie Liquid Pencils.

To Enter the Sharpen Your Senses Giveaway:

For one (1) entry, leave a comment on this post stating how you let your creativity shine between now and Friday, October 14, 2011 at midnight PST.

For two (2) entries, Tweet about this giveaway, and leave a comment on this post stating how you let your creativity shine between now and Friday, October 14, 2011 at midnight PST with your Twitter URL.

For three (3) entries, become a follower of Café Fashionista on Blogger/Google Reader/Google Friend Connect, or Twitter @cafefashionista, and leave a comment on this post stating how you let your creativity shine between now and Friday, October 14, 2011 at midnight PST (if you are already a Café Fashionista follower, please say so in your comment).

I will randomly pick one (1) name out of a hat (who knows, it could be yours!), and announce the winner on Saturday, October 15, 2011.

Good luck everyone!

This Giveaway is open to Everyone – U.S., Canadian, and International residents!


Fashionably yours!


Thanks to Sharpie for the picture.

I'm so excited. Always great for so many things. I especially, like them to make funky mod letters.

Sharpie really knows how to let the creativity flow. Comic books have never been more fun to create..with the hint of a Sharpie.

I'm already a google follower, and would love to win a host of sharpie goodies. I've just completed my research thesis in product design and haven't gotten the chance to draw or design in ages. I'd put those pens to good use by filling up a new notebook of ideas.

SB said...

I'm completely obsessed with Sharpies! I love how I can make boring jobs such as labeling boxes beautiful and colorful using sharpies! Plus I just use them to doodle!

Cute coloful pens. They remind me on how much I´ve become dependent on markers and colored pens to highlight the impostant tasks on my "to-do" blogging list.

Please enter me. I´m a follower of your blog.

Look at you! Very artsy! I am a doodler too. I dabble in watercolor as well. I'm not great, but it's a fun outlet for creativity!

Nikolett said...

Such a cool giveaway! Sharpies are my best friend when it comes to making notes in class ... I can highlight important things AND make awesome doodles on the margins of my pages. And now that I'm helping out in an elementary classroom, we're using Sharpies all the time to make the walls colourful, which lets my creativity shine for sure :)

I'm such a pen/marker fanatic. I actually saw photos of a basement where the guy drew scenes all over the walls with Sharpies, and it looked incredible! Makes me want to make a fabulous Sharpie mural. XD

Unknown said...

Oh, I'm such a sharpie lover, this is a great giveaway Erika! Just looking at that aqua sharpie is making me happy :) Hope all is well--are you still having problems accessing my blog? I hope not. Well wishing you a wonderful start to the weekend!

Sharpies are awesome! I would probably do some illegal graffiti with them so getting them may not be a good idea, but I love them nonetheless.

modanista junkie said...

Awe this is amazing Erika!!! I love sharpies. I would totally use them for my Mel Made projects, and also make projects with my god-daughter.

Colors can make or create a mood. Vibrant colors can catch attention, project happy moods, or inspire creativity.

I love Sharpies. A lot.

I always have one in my purse, tote bag and gym bag. They're great for a quick hancock, marking your drink cup at a party, and writing on balls and Frisbees.

I would doodle loads with a rainbow of these. I would do them in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I'd sneak them in during a work meeting and create a colourful masterpiece worthy of inspiration!

I follow on Google Friend Connect and Twitter, @donnavitan. Tweeted here: https://twitter.com/#!/donnavitan/status/120151026543235072

Cheers and good luck to everyone!
