Can you believe it?!?

On this day, two years ago, the SCOOP was born! It seems like much longer and not nearly that long, all at the same time...

Check out some of our very first posts :: here, here and here.

And our 1st birthday, here!

To give you an idea, those first posts were #s 8, 9 & 10... this is post #1013 (!)

In honor of our birthday, L and I want to give you a gift! And given how NICE giveaways are, I thought it'd be fun to see what you all are doing to be nice to one another (I think Melissa will love this ;)

* * * * * Here's what you'll get:

two (2) letterpress notesets from OrangeBeautiful's Lattice Line
(12 B&W blank folded notes w/ a variety of colorful envelopes, shown above)

two (2) random packs of GOCCO notes
(12 screenprinted folded notes w/ mustard envelopes)

and two (2) packs of B&W pattern buttons

* * * * *

You're probably noticing a trend here, so to continue the 2 theme, your task - if you'd like to enter the giveaway - will be to list two things in the comments of this post :: one nice thing you did today and one nice thing someone else did for you - Got it?

AND

There will be TWO giveaway winners randomly chosen. You must comment before midnight (12pm) EST tonight to be eligible.

Let the nice-ness begin!

UPDATE :: Comment submissions for our birthday giveaway are now closed (as of midnight EST Thursday, March 19th). Feel free to keep the niceties coming, but please note that comments posted after that time will NOT be included in the drawing...

We'll have the two winning names for you on Monday, March 23rd (and the winners themselves will also be notified directly via email).

Thanks again to all who entered!
