Release Day at TGF & Charitable Contest

ETA:
Yay! I got a pic! Here's one of the fab new TGF releases.... "Eric" ....I am counting down the days til True Blood season 3 begins!!! Thanks for your patience and sweet comments everyone!!!
You can click the pic to make it larger and see his red rimmed vamp eyes. My photos may be a bit sketchy over the next week. Sorry! The 'Bite Me' sentiment is from the "Talk Loud" set.
And, I'm going to leave "Edward" up...just so he doesn't get jealous. ;o)
**Apologies!!! I have an old card posted. My new card pic will not be up until much later, or maybe tomorrow. My camera has decided to revolt along with our brand new water heater....no camera....and no hot water. What fun. April Fool's came a little early for me.

I'll be off shopping for a new camera today. So, in place of my "Vamp Eric" card today, I have good old reliable Edward from The Greeting Farm.

On to better news...
TGF has been featured at:
SCRAPSTREET MAGAZINE

You can view my card here on page 28.

But, most importantly......
It's TGF RELEASE DAY and there's NO April Fool's joke here when we say that ALL NEW RELEASES are now available in the TGF Store!

Today we are also excited and honored to announce the 1st
"TGF Cares" Charity Card Drive

This is something that TGF has been wanting to do for a long time and we have finally been able to put together a card drive for a cause very close to our hearts. A few years ago, Jessica was introduced to a family who was only a few weeks away from losing their two-year old daughter, whose name was also Jessica. Through this terrible tragedy, the family couldn't say enough about how wonderful the Ronald McDonald House was to them, specifically the one near the Fairview Children's Hospital near Minneapolis, MN. (please see Jessica's blog for more on this touching story and how TGF customers can help put a smile on the faces of many in need of them!)

TGF is proud and honored to be collecting cards that will go to the RMH in Minneapolis as well as the Fairview Children's Hospital, parents, and siblings of these patients during the long and brave journey of theirs. Be sure to stop by the TGF BLOG today for complete details on this special contest close to our hearts.

A few of the details:
This contest will run all month long. Today, 4/1/10 through 4/30/10. ALL ENTRIES must be POSTMARKED by 4/30/10 to qualify for any prizes/recognition. PLEASE SEE TGF BLOG FOR RULES and complete directions on how to particiapte.

GRAND PRIZE WINNER will take home the ENTIRE APRIL RELEASE plus (1) 4x6 in stock set of choice PLUS a surprise gift (it's a big one, trust us!)
3 FIRST PRIZE winners will choose 2 IN-STOCK 4x6 sets of their choice EACH!

We hope that our first ever TGF CARES card drive is a huge success and can't thank you enough for wanting to be a part of it.
