giveaway :: egg2cake

Back in May, I had the pleasure of meeting an exciting new correspondence company at the National Stationery Show.  Egg2Cake is a fun and innovative company with practical, yet hilarious, correspondence for all types of occasions.  I loved seeing their new and fresh products and it gives me great pleasure to introduce you to them.

The creative name Egg2Cake has many meanings - embryo to first birthday, ingredient to dish, idea to execution - but the company's mission remains singular:  To help people make wonderful memories filled with humor and meaning and to help people put down roots.

They have three distinct areas of focus to their products...
Parenting (Momglish)
Celebrating (Egg2Cake cards)
Entertaining (Toast) - coming soon: spring 2011 (I, personally, can't wait for this launch! - you know, entertaining and all)
With this wide base of categories, you're sure to find what you need.

You have to check out their products - I get a good chuckle every time I do!

Okay, now for the good stuff - a giveaway!!!  The lovely ladies of Egg2Cake want to give you an awesome package of products from their Momglish line.  Get ready to laugh!  Heading to a baby shower soon?  Know someone who is expecting?  This giveaway package would be a PERFECT gift for expectant and new mom's alike.  Check out their giveaway package below... be sure and click on the images so you can read the content - funny, funny!

Do you speak Momglish?

Momglish: New Life, New Language

A dictionary-inspired lexicon that captures the real deal of modern motherhood, one twisted definition at a time. Smart and irreverent, yet down-to-earth, the concept recognizes and celebrates what having a child does for the mind, body and soul. There’s no shortage of baby gifts in the marketplace but no line that focuses on the mother with such a distinctive point of view and branded look and feel. A great find for someone looking for a unique alternative to the traditional shower gifts and who is wanting to celebrate a mom-to-be in a fresh, new way. 

1. Pocket Dictionary

The “mother” of the line contains over 80 definitions about pregnancy and motherhood, all based on wordplay and divided into two sections: B.C.: before child and A.D.: after delivery. There are also some fun illustrations sprinkled throughout which uniquely tie in to the definitions. Many of the definitions are then played out on other product.

2. Parenting Wheel of Misfortune

Put a new spin on who does what! A spinner wheel that offers a humorous way to divide up the not-so-fun or more mundane tasks of new parenting between the mother and father, or any caregiver, for that matter. It utilizes many definitions from the dictionary and is great for passing around at a shower and getting everyone laughing and talking about their parenting “war stories”.

3. Pregnancy & Parenting Postcards

Handy for sending out quick announcements and updates to family and friends. 4 each of 4 versions, total 16. Includes now showing, save the date, wish you were here and we're moving.

4. Door Hangers

2 sets (“Boobtopia” for breastfeeding mamas and “Do not perturb” for new mama and baby), 4 in each set: establish privacy and boundaries with a wink and a smile from the front door to bedroom and nursery.

5. Pregnancy Belly Growth Chart

There are no shortage of growth charts for children these days, but we hadn’t seen any for a mom-to-be’s growing belly. Can be taped on a wall as a backdrop for photographing the belly in all its glory or marking the curves and dates directly on the chart. Use the back to mark the newborn’s length at birth... everyone sends announcements about the weight and height which all sounds a bit abstract but this chart goes a step further in creating a visual keepsake. Copy on the front speaks to the humorous developments that occur throughout pregnancy and includes definitions from the pocket dictionary.

6. Newborn Diaper and Feeding Log: Because what goes in must come out!

If you’ve had a child, you know the photocopied worksheet the hospital gives you after birth on which you record baby’s feedings and diaper changes. This cute little log replaces that and has space for tracking baby’s first month. Also includes a little humor and makes a great keepsake that should be presented to one’s child at the prom (preferably in front of their date!), graduation or wedding. Look how far they’ve come!

7. Greeting cards

Includes the humorous and heartfelt in sentiment and checklist format, 20 cards currently. Included: You are an eggceptional human being. Congratulations on your pregnancy!
