*expired* {Twinpop Designs} Giveaway

*This contest is expired!!!*

This week's contest is a custom-made letter from Twinpop Designs. Here is a note from Dana, explaining a bit about the company:

I have been Scrapbooking and doing Letters for years.  At the beginning of 2009, I really wanted to do something, to give back.  I knew I wanted to do something with kids but didn't know what.  I couple of my friends had premmie babies and then last summer a client ordered a letter for her soon to be born grandson.  She told me how he would go directly into surgery and then would be in the NICU for sometime.  That got me really thinking.  Then in Dec of 2009 a dear friend's wife was having there 4th child. The pregnancy did not go very well and she had been on bedrest for 1 1/2 months.  Finally they decided to deliver the baby boy early.  The baby was fine but 24 hours after giving birth his wife had a pulmunary embolism.  It was such a hard ordeal.  Having a baby in the NICU, 3 kids at home and a wife that is almost dead.  That's when I knew what I wanted to do. 

I've seen many stories on TV about the NICU and thought what a great gift to a new parent to have a PERSONALIZED item for their child!   Instead of having a piece of paper on the isolate, they can have a wood letter that they can take home when they are discharged.  I called around to different hospitals and began donating Letters.  Right now I'm done donating until I can get more orders in.  For every three Letters I sell, I will donate one to the hospital.  I am trying to find ways to do more advertising so I can get the word out.  I really love donating these Letters and I think the families and staff there really do appreciate it.

Dana made me this amazing letter for our home.  I couldn't decide which of my kids would get a personalized letter for their room, so I decided to do our family name to hang downstairs. Dana has a great process of creating each letter: I told her the colors in the room and we chatted a bit before she finalized the project.  I just love how it turned out!!!
