They are generously offering one of my favorite items; The perfect gift set featuring "Ling the Elephant." The set consists of 10 (5x7 flat) cards, envelopes, and a bamboo pen. Packaged in twine, it's lovely in person!

My dream birthday gift would be a surprize trip to Paris with a loved one.

Oh, you're just a bay. I'm SOoooo much older that that !! Who cares though. We can't stop time so we must embrace it.You look wonderful for 50. I bet that you will be something wonderful for your birthday, won't you ? I look forward to hearing all about it.
As I am getting on in years now !! haha... I think that my dream birthday gift is just having all of my family with me. There is nothing materialistic that I yearn for or places to visit. Whatever happens on my birthday, I'm just so pleased to be with the ones that I love....sorry to be so sickly, mushy and sentimental, but it's true !!
Thanks for the most wonderful giveaway. You are a generous soul, Lynn.
I'll put your giveaway on my sidebar. XXXX
Just stopped by to acknowledge your big 50. Have a wonderful day! Now you'll be fab over fifty!!!!!!My perfect gift? A Flat in Paris. I have a shop so don't pick me.Maryanne:)

My dream gift would be a trip, especially Greece, Morocco or India. I love to travel, and there are so many places am dying to see but I just never have the time...and the few times I have taken a trip something always comes up with my business that makes me anxious to return home.
Ok, so maybe my dream gift would just be the luxury of free time, without needing to check in on my email or voice mail constantly!
My dream birthday gift would be the ability to grant wishes!
Merci!
Can I wish for a combo birthday present? Mine would be: on a serious note, all my health problems to disappear so I can enjoy life more and when that happens THEN I would want a few plane tickets (1st class hopefully) to Paris for shopping (with an enormous budget) with my girlfriends, then have my family meet me and the four of us travel throughout Europe (with an enormous budget) and be like a refined version of the Grizwalds...that's my birthday wish. ☺I hope your birthday wishes come true!♥
My dream gift would be a trip to London,The Cotswolds,Paris or Italy!
Happy weekend,Lynn! xxoo
Welcome to the 5th decade, you're going to love it!
My dream birthday wish would be a kidney & pancreas for my wonderful brother.
My dream birthday gift would probably be to spend a year working in a local nonprofit in Indonesia - and I'm working on it as a birthday gift to myself!
My favorite birthday gift would be to go back to the day my husband of 38 years and I shared our first kiss. As he said later, "That was hello".
My dream trip would be a 5 years year off with my family to travel the world...starting with Paris (like Ms Smart)!
I love your blog, its gorgeous :)
I'm with Jacqueline - I think to have all my children together again for even a few days would be the greatest gift of all. My eldest son turned 26 yesterday. How I would of loved to have celebrated with him. Wishing you the best decade ahead ever.
All my best to you, deb

Cheers to you! deb
Gorgeous giveaway, it's all so beautiful :)
Since we're wishing big here, I have the best memories of my Mother and one of those is sitting on the top of the Eiffel Tower on a trip there with her (our last one together) and sipping coffee and talking for hours. It was cold and breezy, and beautiful. My Birthday wish would be to spend just one more beautiful evening with her. Just sipping coffee and talking.
Happy 50th Lynn!!!!! Much love :)
xoxo

My dream would be to live a life of leisure in Marseille with my husband, dog (Zeke) and 3 cat... and did I mention I love gelato, shrimp spaghetti & cheese? ~ all of those included too with no worrying about calories.
Have a blast however you celebrate your special day. xo~Tracie
My dream gift was always to move to Mexico to live by the beach and be able to make art every day. This is no longer my dream because LW my most amazing soul mate&life partner gave me that gift for my 50th birthday!!!!! And you know what, my life is sooooo much more then I ever dreamed of!! :)So don't let anyone ever tell your dreams can never will come true!!

Happy round birthday, Lynn!
My dream birthday gift would be a small house in Martha's Vineyard.

I too would love a trip abroad... but {just in case my husband is wondering} for this birthday I really want a Diana Mini Camera {because who wouldn't want a camera with their name on it - especially when it can take such nostalgic looking photos}
Thanks for the opportunity to enter this competition. I blogged about it here http://searchingforsporadicsurprises.blogspot.com/2010/02/adelaide-cup-if-fast-approaching-im.html

My dream birthday would be to shave 30 years off my actual age for about 30 days and see if i couldn't redo some choices a little differently.

What I would like as a gift would be a summer in Paris in a wonderful Parisian apartment. You know the kind with the tall windows and the shutters that open outward toward a boulevard of trees and a view of the Eiffel Tower.
Happy Birthday...
Di from San Francisco
My dream gift would be a flea-market shopping spree in France.
Would it still be a gift if I am the one giving it on my birthday? I would love to take my loving mother to Dubai for a week, to experience the gorgeous country on a personal level and not on business level. Any day or time with my mom is a gift.
I will also repost this on my blog this Wednesday…it is an honor to write about you Lynn.
XOXO

Anything for my bday? A trip around the world. Fun to dream.

My dream birthday present would be an antique cameo.

My 16 yr old daughter has been working hard saving money and studying french at school...all in preparation to go to Paris one day. Since our birthdays are one month apart ... what a wonderful gift for both of us ! A little pied a terre for the summer ( or more ) with an unlimited budget and unlimited number of family and friends visiting ... and a 'little' champagne. THAT would be a dream come true !

Dream gift? One of those Jonathan Adler leather hippo ottomans. Or a cute English boy who wears sweaters and scarves...to be my one and only! :)
My 50th birthday was last May, and I was dreading it. So, my mom (who turned 70 two weeks before I turned 50)booked a cottage through Mermaid Cottages Vacation Rentals (they are fabulous...check them out on Facebook) on Tybee Island, Georgia. It was a fabulous week exploring the island and Savannah with my mom. So my best gift - the time I spent with her.
Happy Birthday.. looking at the image in the sidebar I hope I look so happy and vibrant at 50 [not long now]
Well I feel a little guilty entering as I only found your blog this week.. but I think I'd wish to return to Italy.. and take some best buddies with me to complete the joy!! could you wrap that up for me? ha ha.. Have a great birthday whatever you do.. Julie
Thanks for the chance to win!

My dream birthday gift would be a small, private house on the ocean :)
My dream gift? A sunny beach house in Santa Barbara!
Lilly the beagle and I wish you great happiness for your birthday!
My dream birthday gift hands down would be Tom Selleck wearing a tool belt, cooking me dinner after just vacuuming the whole house.
Oh yes....
My dream gift would be a return trip to Tuscany with my DH and three adult children, staying in a lovely villa.
My wish would be that my dad doesn't have cancer. He's 82.
Thanks for sharing your birthday with us. Have a Wonderful party!!!!
My dream birthday gift would be all the time in the world to make art.... and then just as much time to spend with my fiance. I'll keep dreaming!

My dream vacation would be a return to Paris and its flea markets. I would use the French that I have been learning since I retired and enjoy the vendors and the wonderful settings.
In honor of your birthday I am buying one of your accessories that I have wanted.
Happy Birthday, Lynn. 50 Years of Wonderful!
