Raffle for the Cure *WINNERS CHOSEN*

The winners have been drawn!  Here’s Elliott pulling them from the bowl!

Those of you whose names were drawn, send me your address and I’ll ship them to you.

To everyone who donated, thank you so much for your generosity! Every bit was so appreciated!

Today, I’m posting a slightly different kind of contest that I think you’ll love for several reasons:

A) It’s in our female blood to want to save the boobies. We like ’em. They’re cool.

B) Every girl needs a super cushy handmade heating pad to pamper themselves with.

C) There will be four heating pads up for grabs, so your chances of finding one in your mailbox soon are pretty good!

So, here’s the deal. This raffle is supporting two of my friends that are participating in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure event. This means that to even participate, they have to raise $2300 toward the cause. Anything over that is just bonus points inching us closer to beating this mess that is…breast cancer.

So…meet Brandie and Chrystyna. These are two very strong, very amazing women that never cease to amaze me with their drive, their skill and their passion that drives them in everything they do. If you know them, you love them. If you don’t….well, just trust me. These are two seriously rockin’ chicks.

Annnnd….on to the raffle fun! You remember the heating pad tutorial I did not too long ago? Well, my lovely friend Joy of A Joyful Soul Fabrics very generously donated the Amy Butler flannel for me to whip up four heating pads to raffle off for this fundraiser. Can I get a round of applause?? K, thanks. She’s a seriously joyful Joy and I adore her.

So, to get your hands of one of these…

…perfect-for-cramps, perfect-for-achy-mommy-backs, perfect-for-gift-giving…

…luxurious…

…velvety-soft…

…heating pads filled weighty rice and heavenly lavender essential oils, here’s what you need to know:

Donate to Brandie and/or Chrystyna. Be sure to leave “The Green Wife” in the personal message area of the donation page so that I can confirm your donation/entries with the girls. Each $5 donation earns 1 raffle entry, so there’s a $5 minimum and anything over that is loved, appreciated and…gets you more entries!

Once you’ve made your donation(s), leave a comment here telling me that you’ve entered. Once I verify your donation with the girls, your name will be put in a drawing with the appropriate number of entries.

Please get your donations in before 10am Central Standard Time on Thursday, May 20, 2010. The winners will be announced and heating pads will be shipped soon after that. Now…go save the boobies!!!
