The deal: I will draw 5 random people who comment on this post and they will receive something made by me. To you! It will be my choice and made especially for you. Leave your comment here before 11:59 pm EST tonight (Sunday). *NOW CLOSED* Just so we’re on the same page, here are the rules.
The details: No guarantees you will feel absolute true love, but possibly happiness, fervor, or chocolate. What I create will be just for you. It will be done sometime this year. You have no clue what it will be… it may be a story. Maybe poetry. (Well, probably not either of those.) I may draw or paint something. It will most likely be a wicked mix CD or a home-sewn Mystery Hero Bunny. But I may bake something and mail it to you. Who knows? Not you! That’s for sure. I reserve the right to do something extremely kooky.
The fine print (which is actually the same size, but whatever): If you are chosen, you must re-post this on your blog and offer the same to 5 people who do the same on their blog. When you get your lovely homemade goods from me, post a picture on your blog so I know my love arrived without a hitch.

Before you type in your name I think that you should know a few things.
#1. Do I care if you actually follow the rules? No...but Karma will.
#2. Do I care if we know each other? No, but you will be subject to my taste!
#3. I love this idea. Thanks Jenny!
AND THE 5 AMBUSHEES ARE...

Does posting first count for anything? I am currently making something for a frequent blog visitor as a thank you. Who knows if she will like it but there's nothing better than homemade right?

Wow, I'm a little scared to leave a comment because I'm not sure what I would make and giveaway. But I am so in love with the idea of getting a surprise that is inspired by your good taste that I will take your challenge! Hope I get picked!
Sounds really interesting Emilie! I would love to be involved!
OMG I totally love this idea... Would love to get a surprise.
Hugs

Something handmade by Emilie!!??! I would be so honored! Whether to eat it, play with it, or listen to it.....I would be smiling the whole time!!! And then to pass the fun on....great idea!!
Love this idea!!! Oh what fun it would be to win and then pass it on!! :-)
I'm in --- although it makes me a little nervous for some reason!
Oh Yeah, BABY!!! Count me in!!! What a fun idea! :)
This is such a cool idea! I'm in :)
Wow, this is an interesting idea! I don't think I have that many people coming on my blog who would leave comments if I were to do the same, but I'd love to try it out! Great idea! I just started following your blog and I find it very fresh and whimsical and funny :)

Too cute...your prize reminds me of cracker jacks....you just never know what you'll get at the bottom of the box!!!!!!
Okay I'm commenting...but if I win, you are in charge of telling me what to make for the 5 people on my blog, 'cause I'm not good at anything, really.
I would really love to win! I've admired your work for years!
What a fabulous idea! I would love to play and pay it forward.
So, I am always game for free stuff and the fact that the free stuff would possibly come from you would totally be the bee's knees.
That is if bees actually had knees. Or do we know that they have knees now because of Bee Movie?
Either way, count me in and pick me.....
What a great idea! How fun!
YOU ROCK! I just adore this and would love to PAY IT FORWARD!!! My school does this around testing time when the teachers are most stressed...a little fairy hangs a sweet gift on their doorknob to let them know that they are loved! COUNT ME IN!!
Em, I love the pay it forward concept and I'm in! you make amazing things, no matter the subject! xoxox
What an incredibly awesome idea - very sweet. Sharing a part of yourself is always the best.
I don't know if I'd count if I don't have a blog but if picked I'd pay it forward in real life...if that can count...If so...count me in...

How fun does this sound!!! Count me in. What a great idea!
Emilie, I have been a fan of all of your art for a long time. Here's to hoping to receive some for it very own!
OMGoodness!! I love this idea, even if I don't get chosen, I'll probably try this. what an awesome idea. I hope you choose me! :)
I know if it's in your tastes, it will be good. As for following the rules...I already posted this on facebook. Does that count?
the possibility of a wicked mix cd? count me in. you are my good music guru. although you are going to cost me a lot of money as everything i your playlist i want to go buy. right. this. second.
What a fun idea, Emilie - count me in!
What an excellent game of hand-made pay-it-forward!! Great idea! Thanks for the chance to win!
my moto: "The power of Karma shall always prevail...")
I shall play by the rules because of the fear of Karma and also because it is my destiny to live morally correct. ;-)
Happy Sunday!

I dont have a blog but I would love to pass on the kindness to five people too!
Even if I don't get picked I still will pass on the kindness to five people. I like doing things like this. I don't have a blog... what would I do?
Awww how super fun is this! I hope I get one! WOO HOO!
What a fun idea! I would love to play. I hope I get picked just so I can pay it forward. I love your blog and creative ideas. So anything received would be a real treat.

Hoping I get picked!!! This is kinda FUN!!
