And The Winner Is...(drum roll please)

The winner of our Hypno Bunny GiveAway Contest is...

Kristin!

We here at Casa Mohler felt that her story of being so scared that she's NEVER been able to return to a Haunted House is, well frankly it's just plain sad.

Allow me to explain...

I LOVE all things scary/creepy. I started reading Stephen King at an early age and I've never looked back. I am constantly seeking the thrill of the scare. Sadly, now-a-days I am hard pressed to find a movie that actually "does it" for me anymore.

Fall time is the best time of year for those of us who love all things Horrifying. There are scary movie marathons on TV, creepy corn mazes to explore and best of all Haunted Houses! Yes, Haunted Houses. The thought that she was so scared that she's never been able to return, in our eyes is well deserving of the prize.

May Hypno Bunny bring joy to her life and give her the courage to step out there and let herself experience the joy that is

The Haunted House!

Congrats Kristin!

May this be the year that you scream like a B Movie Queen!!!!!

Art Contest GiveAway Winner...

After carefully reviewing all contest entries we here at Rachel In Full Color have made our selection and we are ready to announce that

The Winner is.......

(drum roll please)

ROB AND DEBBIE

We felt that their answer was perfect and one that should be celebrated. Their item allowed them to stay longer in order to have more quality one on one time with nature cherishing the trees.

CONGRATS ROB AND DEBBIE

This little beauty will be on it's way to you very soon.

Like our last contest give away, this one was also designed for a specific purpose. I wanted to get you thinking a little more simply. You don't have to spend money to have an adventure. All it takes is a little time and the closest park you can get your feet on. Take a friend or just go by yourself, just you and the dog. Don't have a dog? Perhaps you can borrow one from a neighbor who doesn't have time, or a family member who just had a baby. No matter how you get there or who you get there with, I promise you will feel so much lighter and happier just by being out in the fresh air. Nothing clears a hectic mind or eases the tension in the shoulders like a nice simple stroll through nature.

You never know what you will discover once you step out your front door.

If you need a little encouragement, then think on this...
You are no good to anyone when you're battery light is flashing "LOW".
So step out, relflect and recharge. I promise it won't hurt a bit.

As always, anyone who wishes to lodge a complaint about our choice for winner is encouraged to contact our "Customer Service" Dept. She'll try to make you feel better but we'd like to warn you that you will probably end up giving Her a hug and a pep talk instead!

Creative Contest GiveAway Winner...

After very careful review of all the wonderful entries, we here at Rachel In Full Color have chosen a winner!

NATHAN!

We felt that his answer was not only gut bustingly hilarious but also a prime example of a mail deprived soul in desperite need of the experience of opening the mailbox to find a personally addressed piece of mail just for HIM!

CONGRATS NATHAN!

You are a perfect example of the younger generation (I can say this because I know how old you are :P) that has missed out on the magical world of snail mail.

I specifically designed this contest with a greater goal in mind. I not only wanted to get my readers involved in my blog in a personal way but felt the need to show that EVERYONE, and I do mean EVERYONE, LOVES getting personal letters/notes in their mailbox. With todays emails, tweets, facebook updates and e-cards we have forgotten the happiness that even a simple postcard can bring someone.

So PLEASE, post a note to someone even if the only thing you write is

"Hi"

Love,

------

The runners up in this contest will be notified by mail. Please use your winnings (a blank card complete with stamp and ready to mail) to bring a smile to someone else.

Any one who wishes to express a complaint about our choice for the winner of this contest are urged to contact our "Complaint Dept".

She does not gaurantee to fix the problem but she does promise that you will feel 100% better after speaking with her!

Thank you everyone who participated.

We here at

Rachel In Full Color

love you deeply and couldn't continue to operate without you.

(Look for next month's contest, we are thinking of giving away

a painting!)

It's GiveAway Time!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay! I am sooo excited to announce that Rachel In Full Color has gone interactive! Yuppers that's right folks. Here's what's going on and how it works. I have made a fun piece of mail and you my friend have a chance to WIN it! You heard right! The contest is open to EVERYONE! I'm going to pose a question and you just post a comment here on the blog answering that question. I'll pick one and then send you your prize!!!!! Here's the front of the card. The Bn in the upper left stands for "Bean", my nickname.

When you open it up there's a little creative calendar for September!

When you pull out the card there are some dates circled and on the left are suggestions for something new or fun to do on those days to help keep you creative and enjoying life!

And of course here's the back.

I got so excited about creating something for this GiveAway that I made a couple extra items! BONUS! How exciting is that eh?

You thought they were envelopes did you? Well they are and they aren't. They are notes that fold up and become their own envelope! Aren't they the cutest?

I have decided that these will be sent out to the runners up. Hopefully the lucky winners will use them to send to a loved one to inturn brighten their day!

Okay, are you ready for your question?

WHAT DOES GETTING A "just because" OR "thinking of you" LETTER IN THE MAIL MEAN TO YOU?

Good Luck. I look forward to reading your answers be they heartfelt, a memory, unique or just plain funny.

This contest will close at Midnight this Wednesday August 19 and the winner will be announced Thursday!
