Junk Food Giveway for March!

Mar 23rd, 2010 Posted in Giveaways | 99 comments »

❉ THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED! ❉

CONGRATS AMANDA (cats99)!!!! :D

So for all the people out there that are sticking to their New Year’s diet resolution, and for those that aren’t (um… yeah…), here’s the perfect giveaway.  This month I’m giving away a tiny hamburger or cheeseburger necklace!  You choose either cheese or no cheese – perfect for anyone that’s lactose intolerant.  It can also be a veggie burger or turkey burger too.  Zero calories, organic and 100% local ingredients, well, at least if you live in the southern California area.  I personally think that these look just like an In N’ Out Burger just minus the animal-style toppings.  These little burger charms were hand-formed by Roscata (that’s me!) in my little house in Long Beach, California.  The bun has been expertly “toasted” and layered with crisp lettuce and juicy red ripe tomatoes and you get to choose between cheese or healthy.

New Giveaway for the New Year!

Jan 17th, 2010 Posted in Giveaways | 176 comments »

CONGRATS TO JINGLE WHO WON THE BIRDCAGE NECKLACE GIVEAWAY!!!!

After a wonderful holiday season with my family, I had a well-deserved rest and now Roscata’s shop it back in full-swing for the springtime.  I know it’s only January (as I sit here in my warm flannel PJ’s), but I can’t wait for the warmer days and the southern California wildflowers to start blooming!

To celebrate the arrival of spring, new blooms, and of course, the arrival of little birdies to sing from the branches, I’m giving away a birdcage necklace in your choice of color and your choice of birdie!  A little handmade polymer clay birdie charm perches on a swing that moves.  The cage door is securely adhered so that your little feathered friend will not be lost.  The chain is 24 inches and goes perfect for tunic shirts and an adorable little silvery skeleton key charm adds a ton of cuteness!

You get to choose which antique Victorian style birdcage pendant you would like:  bright French blue, a pure white, or a light pastel rosy pink.  Bird choices are unlimited; however, as a bird biologist, I tend to go for real birds such as indigo buntings, yellow or white canaries, or red cardinals.  Although a purple or bright pink birdie is still really cute!  Below are some examples of birdcages that I’ve made for my Etsy shop, Roscata – Stuff for People.

To enter the giveaway see the rules below and note that you must do #1 as your first entry.  Also, please leave a separate comment for each entry.  This contest is open to anyone around the world!  Thanks!!!

October Giveaway! A Custom Color Balloon Dog Necklace!

Oct 1st, 2009 Posted in Giveaways | no comment »

The fabulous Vanessa from Designs by Vanessa is hosting a giveaway of one of my favorite creations yet – my balloon dog charm and necklace.

I couldn’t sleep one night a few months back and while tossing and turning in my bed (no doubt driving my boyfriend insane, but that’s another blog post entirely…) I thought, balloon dogs would be so cute as a necklace.  One of the reasons I like these little guys is because I can use tons of colors from neon to sparkly to pearlescent.  The winner of this giveaway will even get to choose his/her own custom color!  Click here for a link to the giveaway on Vanessa’s blog.

By the way, be sure to visit her Etsy store Designs by Vanessa.  As a bird biologist, I particularly love her shop becuase she has lots of little birdie jewelry!  Here are some of my favorites!

Yummy Mochi Purse Charm or Keychain – August Giveaway from Roscata!

Aug 28th, 2009 Posted in Giveaways | 91 comments »

THIS CONTEST IS NOW OVER!  THANKS!!!!

Congratulations dymphna!!!!  You’re the winner of the Mochi purse charm!

Interested in my other monthly giveaways?  Sign up for Roscata’s Stuff Club mailing list to be notified of future contests and giveaways.  Just send me an e-mail or go to my Etsy store and send a convo!

I’ve been so busy doing a ton of custom orders that I almost forgot that it’s giveaway time!!!

So this month, I’m giving away a totally cute mochi purse charm (or keychain)!  If you’ve never had mochi before, you’re missing out.  Most people have it in ice cream but my favorite way when it’s wrapped around some sweet red bean paste and then covered in black roasted sesame seeds (called daifuku) – YUM!

Mochi is made from cooked rice that’s pounded and when done, the result is this chewy yummy Japanese treat, similar in texture to a marshmallow!  Mochi can be sweet (perfectly not-too-sweet) and used in tons of desserts and snacks or even unsweetened and added to savory dishes.  Monjayaki with cheese, mochi and spicy cod roe from GajaMoc (in Lomita, CA) or takoyaki with mochi and cheese from Asa Ramen (in Gardena, CA) are some of my favorites…  Geez, I’m making myself hungry, um… back to the giveaway!

Mochi_Purse_Charm_Reduced

For all mochi-lovers out there, I’ve created a little purse charm / key chain with some traditional mochi treats – a mochi bunny, green tea mochi, pink mochi flower, mochi folded over sweet red bean paste, mochi with sweet red beans and a fresh juicy strawberry, and three flavors of mochi on a stick.

TANYA!!!!

Thanks everyone and I’ll add your e-mail addresses to the Stuff Club so you can be notified of the next giveaway.  I promise it’ll be something totally cute!

I’ve been wanting to do a giveaway for such a long time.  It’s actually been over a year since I opened up my shop and have enjoyed all the friends I’ve made through Flickr, Etsy, and local craft/artisan shows in So Cal (yay for Handmade District!).  I’ve also had the good fortune to be the recipient of several giveaways and thought I’d have to do the same to keep up the good karma.  So what is up for grabs is a cute tiny lemon meringue pie slice with a slice of lemon and whipped cream on a necklace with a tiny fork charm.

LemonMeringuePie

Just in case you’re not a huge lemon meringue fan, you can choose either a strawberry cream pie, key lime pie, or pumpkin pie with whipped cream charm. Bon appetit!
