I have had lots of fun so far being a stylist, a company director and an accountant - and have learned so much before I have even made a sale. I'm a bit nervous but also very excited - I am already working on lots of strategies for expansion!
So here is the big launch competition; you can win a year's worth of stationery - one package each month for twelve months, with a minimum retail value of £10 per month, worth £120 or approx $200 USD in total. A prize worth having, don't you think?There is a catch: to qualify you need to link to this competition, or Papermash in a blog post. Please let me know you have done so in the comments. International entrants are welcome.
I know that not everyone has their own blog - so I'm not leaving you out of the fun! There will be a one-off surprise parcel for another lucky reader. Just leave a comment stating what your favourite item in the shop is. Please make sure you leave your email address in the comments if your blogger profile is not public.
I am also offering a 10% discount to Tea for Joy readers until 21st August if you enter the code teaforjoy1 at the checkout.
If you find any glitches on the website please let me know - I've been tweaking and tweaking, testing and testing - but you never know what might be lurking.
The competition will close at midnight next Wednesday, 12th August.

Oh my goodness...this would make my entire life! I am constantly in search of unique stationery for penpalling : -)
I'm not sure if this counts, but I've linked the shop and contest in a public entry in my livejournal since I don't have a blogger blog.
In case it doesn't count, I would love to be entered in the smaller contest; my favourite item from the shop is the set of mini metallic woodcut cards!
Thank you for sharing the shop with us! I'm excited to have a new avenue for finding papergoods!

Hello Lynne!
I love Tea for Joy and am making googly eyes at Papermash. The shop looks great--there are so many beautiful things there.
I posted about Papermash on my blog.You can read it here:
http://fieldwonderful.blogspot.com/2009/08/papermash.html
I'd absolutely love a year's worth of free stationery. Great giveaway!
I've linked your store and your contest on my blog! :)
http://bluebirdanne.blogspot.com/2009/08/writing-letters-along-with-delicious.html
Love your blog! :)
I love, love, love your store: can I come and live in it?
Everything was so beautiful I wanted to cry, then I read the wine bottle tags and started to laugh: combine the two and, apparently, it creates a weird honking noise that should never be heard in a public place.
Papermash is on my blog (thefairlyconstantreader.blogspot.com), my facebook page and emails to my friends - good luck!
Tonia
Congratulations Lynne on your beautiful new store! I love your blog and have been eagerly awaiting the arrival of Papermash. I'm so excited that Oh Joy notebooks are finally in the UK - I have been wanting one of the charcoal agate ones forever. The wine tags also made me smile - letterpress + wine...possibly my two favourite things!
Best of luck with it all - with your fantastic styling and eye for gorgeous stationary, I'm sure it will be a fantastic success!
Nat
I love your products that you sell..

Hi Lynn! I really love what you've done with your stationery! :) Smashing stuff.
Here's my blog post about your new store!
http://basement.halfarenaissance.net/?p=1773
I hope I'm not late for this contest! I don't have a blog myself, but what caught my eye while looking through the shop was the typewriter tape: http://www.papermash.co.uk/collections/all-products/products/typewriter-tape
I've never seen one like it and I think it's a great alternative to the plain old transparent tape. Thanks for holding this contest!
I like the "another day" notebook. i don't have a blog!

Hello!
Your shop is so lovely!
I don't have a blog, so unfortunately I cannot post about it. However, I'll try to recommend it to my friends.
My favorite good is the "Noting says thank you like a bottle of wine I know nothing about" tag (http://www.papermash.co.uk/collections/tags/products/nothing-says-thank-you-like-wine-tag), which I find very funny.
Good luck with your store!
