    Wow, these packs are beautiful. I would love to win either and have emailed my entry. #2 has caught my eye as I think the ds duffle and charlie cap would be greatly appreciated by my daughter and I NEED the chocolate after answering all those questions. :)

    Package Number 1 is it for me :D
    There is something for my baby girl, for me ( a busy mum ) something for my Mum and Mother in Law, my nieces and my best friend. So not only would I win - my loved ones will too :D

    Thankyou for this little adventure discovering amazing pages and other hard working Mums and Dads out there!

    I would love to win package number one - both packs have gorgeous items from wonderful WAHM but the thing that got me for pack 1 was the CHOCOLATE - you can't go wrong!!

    Pack one also has practical items for my family :)

    This is such a great idea, I got so distracted checking out all the pages! Both packages are fantastic, but I think my favourite is package 2, my eldest daughter has her 2nd birthday very soon and would go nuts over the skirt, the dolly bracelet and the owl clips!

    Wow! I must say it was a real treat to visit all those wonderful websites. They are all so talented and their creations are gorgeous. I enjoyed answering the questions too :) lol

    Now for the hard thing... Choosing between Pack 1 or Pack 2?? Hmmm I think I will have to choose Pack 1. There are plenty of lovely things for my two little girls and even some goodies for me :) Thank you!
