When I started this journey last May, 2011, I never thought it will bring me and my family a lot of blessings. I met wonderful friends from across the world-friends I would never have met otherwise-who shares the passion I have with everything beautiful and sweet.
I would like to express my deepest gratitude to ALL OF YOU who have showered me, my cakes, OUR page and my Etsy shop all the love.
As we cross the 3K milestone, I am launching OUR page's "AROUND THE WORLD WITH COUTURE CAKES BY ROSE AND FRIENDS" which will be a series of giveaways and community projects sponsored within and by OUR page celebrating every milestone on OUR journey.
Why call our milestone giveaways and projects "Around the World with Couture Cakes by Rose and Friends"? As many of you know, I am a nurse who also have a passion for travelling. There's so much out there to see and discover that I wouldn't want to be tied down in one place but my family is now more important than my wanderlust so since I can't physically travel to you all, OUR page will be doing the travelling :)
WE are only separated by seas and land boundaries but we are united under one passion-The Art of Sugar Craft and this is my way of bringing US all together.
To start with, we are having over $250.00 worth of giveaways to 7 lucky winners from 6 continents. Each set of prizes will range anywhere between $34.00-$55.00.
1 winner from Asia, 1 winner from Africa, 1 winner from Europe, 1 winner from Australia, 1 winner from South America and 2 winners (1 from USA and Canada and 1 from the rest of the North America) from North America. Prizes will be raffled and randomly selected as the name of the winner is drawn with the exception of the prize for the winner from USA and Canada which is be pre-assigned.
Prizes to be won are shown on the photos below. Each prize comes with a piece of decorating tool plus selected molds from my own collection of handmade silicone molds consisting of a border mold, 3 pieces of brooch mold and a lace mold.
This set of prize will be for the winner from USA and CANADA. This is quite heavy hence I can only ship it to USA or CANADA.
Extruder with silicone molds
There will be 3 sets of this prize:
A set of modelling tool and silicone molds:
And one of each for the the following set of prizes:
Brush set and silicone molds.
Palette knife set and silicone molds.
Set of butterfly cutter and silicone molds.
Here's several photos of my cakes and decors wherein the silicone molds shown on the above photos was used.
This giveaway is open to ALL. Share it, talk about it, let's "travel the world" together.
All YOU need to do is write a comment under this blog post with your full name and state the country you are currently residing at. Once you have done that, your name and current country of residence will be entered into the drawing.
Raffle entry will close on October 01, 2012 at 12:00 noon EST. Drawing will take place on October 01, 2012 at 8:00 pm EST. The names of the winners will then be published on this blog and a link will be provided on OUR page. Winners will have 24 hours to contact me via my email address couturecakesbyrose@gmail.com to provide me their complete shipping address. If a winner or winners failed to claim their prize within that 24 hours period after the drawing, a new winner will be drawn.
Good luck and may the best caker win :)
Lots of hugs and loves,
Rose
