Wanna Win Some Stamps?

Good morning!! I got my camera battery all charged up and here are the new stamps I wanted to share with you:


The guy with the balloons and flowers is Baxter!!! You know Buddy, the monkey...here he is so excited to bring the perfect gift for you!!! Of course, Max the dog is not a new stamp (but, what's a party without cupcakes????). Look at the picture below for the stamps I'll be giving away:



All you have to do to enter is leave me a comment by midnight tomorrow (February 10, Hawaii time) and I'll pick one name at random and announce the winner on Wednesday, February 11. Just for fun...tell me about your "claim to fame". I'll tell you mine. Around 5 years ago, my son was really into magic...so, I took him to Las Vegas to see a bunch of different magic shows. He was especially anxious to see Lance Burton's show at the Monte Carlo. Before the show we were hanging out at the Monte Carlo's magic shop and my son became friends with the magician who was working there. To make a long story short...that magician made arrangements for my son to meet Lance Burton after the show. What a thrill it was for him...we got to meet Lance Burton and also got to see Pat Morita (Karate Kid, Happy Days) who was also there after the show!!

ok...good luck!! I want to encourage all the people who stop by but never enter (I KNOW you want to!!!!) Take a chance...you might win!! :)

Love the stamps. Always so CUTE. My claim to fame...my employer used my photo for a hiring ad in our state's professional journal. My coworkers who I supervise, cut out the page, xeroxed it and pasted it up all over the workplace. They said it was like me watching over them even when I wasn't there...

My brother & I met Jack Lord, Hawaii 5-0. They were filming down our street & we got to say "hi" & talk story & ask "why did they block our street off so we can't ride our bikes?" Love your new stamps!

Hi Jean,

My friend wasn’t feeling during your M & T on Saturday and was bummed out by it she felt better in the afternoon so she rushed over to J’s to take a look at your M & T. She was so inspired and rushed home and was happy to see your favor directions and made your heart favor Sunday thanks to your great blog directions. Can’t wait for your next M & T at PC. Baxter is a cute addition to your great menagerie of characters.

Hi Jean!

Love the card and stamps, My claim to fame is that I was in 3car accidents in 10 days, 1) I was hit from behind, 2) with friend, she was taking me to the Dr's and some kids ran a red light and we were hit from the side. 3) with another friend and hit guy turned in from of us and took her bumper off and some front end damaged. After that week, it took a long time before I would get into another car ... hehehe it was one of the worst weeks ever.

Jenny said...

I love these stamps! Although I haven't really stamped in awhile, your stamps have inspired me to start stamping again! Sorry, I have no claim to fame when it comes to meeting celebrities. Only thing I can think of is that I entered a contest and got my work published.

Anonymous said...

Cute! Please enter me in your contest. Hmmmm, reason for being well known? Family and friends say my creativity and quest for knowledge would be my claims to fame.

Nikki said...

I won a Top Cop award as a criminal investigator. I may seem tough, but I love to stamp with your darling critters.

What a darling card and such cute stamps! The only claim to fame I can think of is that I knew Kate Hudson's Dad and Uncles when they were teenagers. (and that was YEARS ago)

Fay said...

Jean, Baxter is soooo adorable! And of course, I love Buddy the monkey! Thanks for the peek. My only claim to fame is when I went to Medieval Times in Florida and was given the red flag to wave for "my knight" and when he won his first competition, he gave me the rose he won! Does that count? LOL

Aunty Edna - Ekg said...

Aloha kaua, Jean,
Baxter is cute and a great addition. We made 30 valentine cards this week, using your 3" x 6" card with 3 hearts. = ) My haumana are having a great time. My claim to fame, I am privileged to be an advisor to Na Haumana O Hawaii and the best student run luau in the northwest at Pacific University in Forest Grove, Oregon. We have danced for the Brothers Cazimero, Keola Beamer and The Makaha Sons when they have been in the Portland area.

Jan said...

Oh, your designs are too cute. My claim to fame is a long time ago when Magnum PI was a big hit, I got to present Tom Selleck with a lei.

Angie said...

I haven't left you a comment in WAY too long! I figure I"ll take a chance to win. I don't know about any claim to fame that I may have... not yet anyway, someday!

Joy said...

Hmmm, I'm not famous at all in TV-land, but as *Jean* puts it, I'm a *superstar* blogger! hehe!

I also did a video in college, called Dress for Success. It was a video to help students get prepared for job interviews... so I had many costume changes, and we got a whole wardrobe from pretty high class places! Shucks that we couldn't keep any of 'em. :)

Thanks for the chance to win!

HI Jean
Thank you for Saturday and you sure did get it on the web prior to 10:30 pm VBG. My claim to fame is my next door neighbor married Davy Jones of the Monkey's and had Sonny and Cher over for several parties.

My claim to fame is that I was having dinner at the Hoku's restaurants in the Kahala Mandarin with my ex-boyfriend for our anniversary. In front of our table was Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake.It was the time when they were dating this was back in 2005 when I saw them together. I couldn't help it but just stared at them. Cameron was kinda of stuck up. But in the other hand Justin Timberlake had smiled at me. I just wanted to faint but I couldn't because my ex-boyfriend was there. My ex-boyfriend said "their just human beings and just try not to make eye contact or else they are going to move tables". "Just enjoy your dinner". I wish I had the courage to say Hi and hope they join us for dinner altogether. But that will never happened. By the way I love those stamps. Your designs are so adorable.

Hi Jean....I enjoyed your M&T at J's...it was really cute! I don't have a "famous" claim to fame but I won Fay's blog candy last year (my very first win!) and I was surprised at how many people knew about it and congratulated me. What a neat way to meet people (I even met Fay and saw her again at your M&T). I love your new stamps...so cute...hope I win!

Carole said...

Good Morning Jean, Your new stamps are so much fun & I can't wait to start making some Easter goodies with them. Claim to fame: Got up on stage and danced with Neil Diamond at the NBC many years ago! And I still love his music today!

My claim to fame was meeting Hawaii sumo wrestler - Jesse T. @ the Honolulu Airport. I was lifted up like a baby in his arms as he was SO huge!
Love your new stamps as the characters are absolutely adorable! Thanks for giving us a chance to win.

My claim to fame I guess was being a panel judge on Hawaii Stars. That was so long ago but I did get air time. Hehe. :) Love your card!

Kacie said...

I love the new stamps. Can't wait to see all of them. Claim to fame, hmmmm, guess my time hasn't come yet :).

Jeanne said...

Love the card. Claim to fame is that I got through 30 years of teaching!

BlueRose said...

I love your card. I love your stamps they are so cute, I'm sad to say that I have not been in anything to do with fame. I have been to Hollywood several time.....LOL

I guess I've been mostly invisible all these years so my 'small' claim to fame was like about 45 years ago. Does this count? I did a cheerleader gig with my high school on the Tom Moffat Show in those black & white tv days. whoopee! MarilynY (yum@hawaii.rr.com)

Janet said...

I had two sort of claims to fame. The first one was back in college. I was in my college's precursor pageant to the Miss Tennessee state pageant for the Miss America contest. I was NOT a finalist. It was a fun experience though. The second one was when I was asked to be in a commercial for our local mall in PA. I was a mall morning walker at the time and they wanted us represented in the commercial. So 4 of us were chosen to be in the commercial. WooHoo! LOL It was so funny to watch and seems like an eternity ago. Thanks for the fun!

Yuki said...

Hi Jean, Of course I love your new stamps! My claim to fame was working at a Dr's office and Rob Lowe came in to see one of the doctors. The nurse introduced me because she knew I had a crush and nothing came out of my mouth! DUHHH!

Teri said...

Hi Jean! As usual, your new designs are fabulously awesome! My only claim to fame is that met you way back when you had your store downstairs from Int'l Savings bldg. and now you are a famous rubber stamp designer that I look up to for inspiration and of course, you're family :) Just wanted to give you a giggle...Love all of the stories here, I read them all!! xo, Teri

Unknown said...

Jean, your stamps are so cute! I enjoyed your make & take at J's last Saturday.
Sorry, no claim to fame here, hopefully someday...

I just love the new release of stamps. They just give you warm fuzzies which is what we all can use in our lives! They are very addicting! I also love the way your products stamp. The image is perfect everytime. I can't wait to see what is next.

Oh, my claim to fame was when I was an 18 year old girl right out of high school I was asked to dance by Rick Sutcliffe. At that time, he was pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles. I had no idea who he was till my (now) husband told me after our dance. He thought it was awesome that a major league baseball player asked his girlfriend to dance. I looked his information up the next day and I thought it was funny that he won the Rookie of the year award in 1979 and I was 5.

Elliot is so cute! You just want to hug him!! Something that makes me smile is my grandchildren's smiles!
