Last month, I had the great pleasure of giving away a copy of a book that I got to be in: Heart-Felt Holidays! This is a super cute book, with something special for nearly every holiday you can think of. Even Groundhog Day, which is my project!
We're no where near Groundhog Day, but the funny thing is, this time of year is when you're more likely to see one of these critters. In fact, I saw one in my neighbor's yard the other day, and Kathy Sheldon, the author of this delightful book has seen a family of them near her! So we thought this would be a good time to giveaway another copy of the book. But this time...
The winner will receive Heart-Felt Holidays signed by Kathy Sheldon, plus my original Seeing Shadows Groundhog case...the one that is actually in the book!
Enter to win below, and in case you don't win, I'd like to tempt you with a few extra pics of the book:
These are a couple projects to go with some upcoming holidays. There's plenty of time to order the book and get making before Father's Day and Independence Day! With all of the projects included, it really is a bargain. Find it on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Thanks so much to Kathy and Amanda at Lark Books for creating this lovely book!
I love making things with felt. Thanks
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a cute book, thanks for the chance :)
ReplyDeleteOh, those felt family portraits are SO cute! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite not so big holiday is Memorial Day. It is still big but not like Christmas or Thanksgiving. My husband and I both had dads that served in the military and we have had and continue to have very dear friends that are military. Memorial day is a wonderful day to remember the sacrifices made by so many to protect our country.
ReplyDeleteOhh I'd love to add that to my collection! I don't really have a not so major fave holiday.
ReplyDeleteWhat would be considered not so major? I like balancing eggs on their ends on the equinoxes.

ReplyDeleteMy favorite not so major holiday would be our Liberation day on may fifth here in the Netherlands
ReplyDeleteMy favorite not-so-major holiday is Saint Patrick's day. I don't know why...no one else I know thinks it's a big deal and I've never been out drinking green beer or anything (I'm not 21 for a couple more weeks)...but something about it just makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteOur favorite not so big holiday is Fourth of July. Our small town goes all out.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite not-so-big holiday is burns night, haggis neeps and tatties-yum!
ReplyDeletetoo cute! I'd love to win this book!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a chance - my fave not-so-big (here in the US) holiday is Canada Day :)
ReplyDeleteIs the fourth of July considered a not-major holiday? I have so many memories of sitting on a quilt on the hill outside a church in town, listening to Ray Charles sing "America the Beautiful" over the loudspeakers and watching fireworks.
ReplyDeleteLove the fourth of July. It is near my birthday and it felt like all the fireworks were for me.
ReplyDeletegroundhogs are such cute critters!
ReplyDeletesomehow my favorite holiday didn't post with my comment! earth day is up there in my favorites. it's always good to be aware of the effects you have on the world around you, and how you leave it for people yet to come.
ReplyDeleteI tend to love Halloween and Christmas projects but this books looks too fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway! I love President's day for a long weekend.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite not so major holiday would have to be Memorial Day. Honoring those who serve but not a lot of planning and no anxiety over gifts, LOL.Thanks for the opportunity. The book looks amazing!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite low key holiday is Labor Day. It is a nice break, and that is all it is, a break. I don't have to feel guilty about not going to any parades, or sending cards, or decorating my house! :) Aileen Bell aileenbell@cox.net
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna say that my favorite not-so-major holiday is my birthday! Ha!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun book. :)
This looks like such a fun gift. Might have to add it to my "I want these books next time I get an Amazon gift card" book list. Of course, only if I don't win it first!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite not-so-major holiday is definitely either Earth Day or Veteran's Day. I just think that they're both really good holidays that we learn a lot from, and lots of people really downplay their importance!
ReplyDeleteHm, my favorite not-so-major holiday...I actually really enjoy Memorial Day! Camping, grilling out, and the weather is usually perfect! (knock on wood!)

ReplyDeletefavorite not-so-major holiday... day after valentine's (when all of the candy goes on sale!)

Does St. Patty's Day count as not so major? That's my fav!
ReplyDeleteI love valentine's day!

My favorite not so major holiday are quite major to me just not the whole world... they would be my grandchildren's birthdays.

ReplyDeleteLove this giveaway!! My favorite not so holiday would be 4th of July!! Happy Monday!! xo Heather
ReplyDeleteI think flag day is a good one - we can color all kinds of flags with our kids!
ReplyDeleteI love that case! It's so cute!
ReplyDeleteI like Cinco de Mayo - we always go out but we always avoid Mexican restaurants because they're so crowded that day!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a fun book to have in your craftbook library. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI NEED THIS!!! I love holiday crafts!!! I really love Valentine's Day... Now I know this is probably considered a "major" holiday, however there are so many V-Day naysers. Jen and I show our love all year 'round, however there's nothing wrong with a sweet little day to celebrate! We celebrate our b-days and anniversaries, ya know?!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite "not so major holiday" has to be Pancake Day. Nom nom nom. Any excuse!

I can't think of a holiday I love more than Christmas (although it IS probably considered a major holiday :P). That book looks so cute I've added it to my wishlist!
ReplyDeleteI love holidays and felt projects - and I love groundhogs! Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeletehmmm...I like Pi Day (3/14), but it always creeps up on me before I can plan a pie party. And Memorial Day...because there's a lot of meaning on that day, and it's the unofficial start of summer!
ReplyDeleteI have to say my favorite holiday is Christmas. Just an old fashion Christmas. Homemade gifts and worship Jesus birth. Sharon
ReplyDeleteI love the 4th of July! thanks!

ReplyDeleteMy favourite not-so-big holiday is St.David's day! With my partially Welsh ancestry, I like taking March 1st and thinking about Welshness and what I identify in those Welsh roots. Plus, leeks are awesome!
ReplyDeleteMothers day is a not-so-big holiday that I love to celebrate. My mom does so much for me and having mothers day makes it extra special to show my appreciation. Although everyday should be mothers day
ReplyDeleteI love memorial day, it not only lends time to reflect and remember but it is also the official kick-off to lake season here in Missouri.
ReplyDeleteI think Pi day is a fun holiday! I would love to make things from the book They look so cute!
