Mondays are good days for announcing things, don't you think? It's long been known that I'm a maker of lists and enjoy the pleasure of accomplishing tasks and marking them off of said lists, if for nothing else than just the satisfaction of seeing something was actually completed.
1. My brand-spanking new Design Blog is finished. I am so excited about it - I coded it myself (which explains why some of you who have MSIE6 and FF2.0 will have viewing issues - working on the bugs still). You can visit it if you like, or not. I still have some work to do on it and there are still a few pages that are either buggy or not complete, but honestly? I just wanted to get it out there so I could announce part two of my list.
2. My order pad is open for business. Yay! I already have a wait-list of five people, but I will accept new clients as well - please go to my new Design Blog for the new pricing list and to place your orders.
3. And finally, today is the first day of a special giveaway I hinted around at last month. Some of you know that my husband recently got me the full Adobe CS3 Creative Design Suite (I had just purchsed the Photoshop CS3 two months earlier) - and apparently he got a steal because they were just about to come out with version 8 - so he couldn't wait until Christmas (so much for surprises) because he knew how much I'd been wanting it. (Everyone say "awww")
So what's the giveaway? Adobe Photoshop CS3, of course! It is the original disc with the original packaging - the box and getting started manual come with it. The only catch is that it had been installed on my computer once. I uninstalled it when I received my new one so it's ready to go for someone else, complete with the product and registration key. It's like BRAND NEW, people.
I'm not Pioneer Woman...so I'm not giving away a brand new copy, but you can think of it as "re-gifting" or whatever floats your boat. It's all good and I would have killed for a good used copy when I started my design business earlier this year...as it was, I spent over $300 on it. Someone is going to win it for free.
If you're still with me - here's the hoops:
1. One entry per person per day. Yes, I said per day. You may enter once a day every day up until October 31st, at which time I will close comments and commence the drawing using a random number generator, or my pointing finger, depending on how many comments there are.
2. Please tell me why you want to win this in your comment...all comments that are generic "count me in!" and "I'd love to win this" will be thrown out, because I can do that.
3. Giveaway is open to bloggers and non-bloggers alike - open to US and Canadian residents.
4. Giveaway ends Friday, October 31st at midnight, winner will be contacted via email and announced on this blog.
5. I can't believe I have to remind folks this - but PLEASE leave me a way to contact you - an email or your blog address with an email address - I will not leave a comment on a blog letting you know you've won. I need the ability to EMAIL you. Thanks!
How's that for a Monday? Pretty good, huh?

I don't think my previous comment went through...
I'd LOVE to win this because my current photo editing software doesn't allow me to do anything other than just crop. I'd love to play with some of the "fancy" features, haha.

Hi, it's me again:) Why do I want to win this? I would use it every day...and love it, and pet it, and call him George;)
I love me some Photoshop and to have CS3...a girl can dream.
I'll be back tom. Now I'm off to worship at the altar of Adobe:)
Give aways are in the air...and so is thankfulness...I want to own the photoshop so I can be even more thankful than I already am. I am pretty thankful...but I would love to be more thankful. Just yakin!
I would love to win this because I've been wanting it for awhile but just can't afford it. I have 4 kids and take tons of pictures so this would be very helpful.
My hobby is photography, and I love photo editing and love graphic design! I would love to start digital scrapbooking as well! I am a novice but would love love love to get my hands on that software! Thanks so much for the chance! I hope I win!
mhode79(at)gmail(dot)com
I would love to win because I need help with my pictures. I've always wanted to learn to use photoshop and this would be a great chance.
LOL! I love that you have to TELL people to leave an email addy. I would never guess that you are not some sort of psychic that can just mind read or whatever to them that they won.
I will be gifting this to a friend if I win. she is starting a photo biz and needs cool stuff like this.
Who knows she might be so happy as to give me a free shoot... I can dream right?
mama.may24(at)ymail(dot)com
This would be so useful for my book publish project (I bind books for my work-study job).
WOW! you have no idea how much i'd love this! I'm an aspiring photographer but I really can't afford to buy it myself. I'm using a free photo editing program online right now, and its just not quite cutting it! Please enter me!! thank you!!
thewonderfulletterk@hotmail.com
I love editing my photos and playing around with graphics, but Ive never had photoshop before cause I know its too expensive... I'd love to win it!
All I can say is ... WOW! I would so love to win this. I'm a stay at home Mom who is also a part time graphic and website designer. I'm using a really old version of Photoshop and I know I am so lucky to even have that! Upgrading to the newer stuff myself isn't in the cards right now, so winning this would be great! Thanks for a great prize!
sagirl2(at)gmail(dot)com
You have no idea how badly I want this!! When I saw this on the list I got so excited! I've been wanting to get photoshop for forever now, I've been using paint.net but I have been getting into design and I'm so limited. By the way, I love your design page. If I don't win and can't do it myself I guess I may have to hire you. ;) sharlacarbine at gmail dot com
I would LOVE to win this for my sister for a Christmas gift. She is just starting out as a photographer and this is the exact program she was looking at getting. thanks for the chance!
OMGosh - I wouldn't care if you've used this once or a million times - it's a FREE Photoshop!! I've been wanting Photoshop for years for my photography. I played around with it years ago when the boys were babies but alas, they were babies and required a lot of my time. They're older now and I have much more free time to learn it. It's at the top of my xmas list but DH says "not at that price". lol I'm an amateur photographer and would love to learn how to manipulate my photos. Oh, this is soooo cool, thank you for the chance to win one!!!
My husband would LOVE this...I want to win it for him!
twinzmama23(@)yahoo(.)com
I really need this! We don't have photoshop, and I've been wanting to try some of the things I see other bloggers doing with their photos. (Watermarks, etc.) Thanks for the great giveaway - I hope I win!

-drool-I love to draw and would love to own a current version of photoshop
This would be an amazing christmas gift
KawaiiNeko2008 (at) aol (dot) com
Hubby is a retired photographer and I am a serious amateur photographer. He has a really old version of Photoshop (like version 2.0) from well over a decade ago, and I use Elements 6.0. We greatly enjoy doing photography together with our traveling, so this great program would be a blessing to us! And I post pretty pictures on my blog for all the world to see! My fingers are crossed, LOL.
stitcherylove[at]yahoo[dot]com
Great giveaway, new or not! The only photo editing program I have is the one that came with my cheap digital camera, lol. A real Photoshop program would be great!
I have been wanting this program for quite some time now. As an amateur photographer, I've outgrown my Jasc Paint Shop Pro from 8 years ago, and GIMP doesn't cut it. Also, I started designing some fabric at Spoonflower and need to be able to work in LAB color space! I will do backflips if I win this - I've been eyeing it forever. :)
Reasons I want to win...
1. I'm design-dumb...but there are tons of tutorials online to use Photoshop to make your photos look awesome.
2. I had a trial version, fell in love, and couldn't afford to buy it when the trial ran out.
3. My mean mean husband doesn't believe that Photoshop is a necessity in our ever-squeezing budget. And while I agree...I think he should have gone to bat for me. :)
wow! what a great giveaway!!
i would love to win ps because i got a dslr earlier this summer and i'm having a blast getting to know it. having ps would just be the icing on the cake. i'm an artist at heart (not by profession) and would love to be able to get even more into photography.
I've got to do more photo editing tonight... sigh, I'm crossing my fingers that I will win Photoshop here!! Thanks again for the chance.
I've been wanting either a digital SLR or photoshop so my kiddies' pics look better...this would be great to win! :)
So, I mentioned yesterday that I've been using Elements for awhile and want a go at the real deal... I really do. I've had a couple of tiny opportunities to use CS3 and the band-aid is like a MIRACLE and would be so helpful.

Entry #10-
I wonder how I can hack into her system and guarantee my number will be picked for this giveaway....hmmmm. Time to do a Google search.
I would love to win this as an upgrade from my really ancient 7.0 version! What an awesome prize, thanks for the chance to win!
i'm a digiscrapper and would love this for my hobby
Second entry!
I have a 3yr old and a 2yr old. They never look at the camera at the same time. With your photoshop program, I can merge two photos into that "perfectly" posed photo! Well - maybe - lol. :)
krispiks@aol.com
I would love to win this because I only use a digital camera and print my own photos. I do scrapbooking so I like to edit and fix my photos before I print them out. All my software is older so I need a newer one. Thanks for the chance to win.
How fun! I can't wait to try it out...how cool!
I want to win because my trial expired and I need to practice!

I would love to win this, I'd like to learn more Photoshop skills.

http://pinkstinx.blogspot.com/
What a treat to win! I would love to win it because I am thinking of starting my own photography business, and offering cards, etc. Thanks! cross_home2001 (at) yahoo (dot) com
I would so love this for many reasons: I cannot currently afford to go out and buy this for myself, I loved playing around in Photoshop and Paint while I had the trial versions, but mostly because I'm sure that with this tool I could be the next great creative genius - the likes of which this world has never known!
Ok, maybe not - but you never know!
I'd love to win this...I'm really trying to do more with my photos and scrapbooking. I'd love to learn how to do more and make it look more professional.
Oh wow! I would LOVE to win this!! I only have a small P&S camera but I LOVE taking pictures I've always wanted to get to a point where I could save up for a photo editing program!! I would be THRILLED if I won!!
I've never used photoshop, but am in awe of everyone who blogs with their pretty pictures that they make on photoshop, and I'd love to give it a try!

my son needs this for schoolwould love to win...looks great, please enter me...mrs.mommyyatgmail.com

crossing my fingers and toes!
kmc.love at gmail.com
I would love to win this. Lots of photos to play around with and I'm probably the only person left on the earth that doesn't have photoshop. Thank you
actsm(AT)hotmail(DOT)com
i would love to do some web design things with it and i would love to use it to edit all our thousands of pics.
I would love to win this because I've NEVER had any photo editing software before because I can't afford it. Since becoming disabled with chronic pain and not being able to teach anymore, I've been anxious to learn photography and photo editing. It's something I've wanted to do since Jr. High School yet never had enough electives in school or time since graduating to dedicate to it. It would mean the world to me to be able to start this dream of mine and watch it become a reality.
This is an extremely generous giveaway, and I'm so excited to have the opportunity to enter to win it!!!
Thanks so much!!
Michele R.(CA)
luvkittysmeowmail@gmail.com
I would like to win this because we used to have a great photo editor on our old computer, but it was not compatible with our new computer, so I have been living without a photo editor for almost 2 years.
akreese (at) hotmail (dot) com
I own a web-site and several blogs. So I'm always working on images. :)
lilacbutterfly [at] earthlink.net
I have Elements, but there are several things that you just can't do (or require way more knowledge than I have) that can easily be done in PS3. Like clipping masks.
Alright. My reason is not as altruistic, but I'd really like to win it because I currently need it. My current project is to design a wine label for one of my clubs and there are just somethings that you can't do on "paint".
the_outsider01AThotmailDOTcom
I want to win cuz my Microsoft Photodraw quit working a couple of weeks ago so I need new software.
I currently create in PSP and I haven't tried Photoshop, but I really want too!

Another day, another entry. I would love to win this because of the fantastic photo editing that I could do! Thanks again for the giveaway!
I have CS2, I would love to upgrade!
Today's reason? Because I'd really like to be able to use actions, and that just can't be done on Elements.
(Can I send lots of subliminal pickmepickme thoughts?)
I love taking pictures&doing different things to them!This would be great!

OMGoodness Of course I would love to be "regifted" with this... I would use it for all the photos I send out to friends and family of the wee ones.. A long time ago before the wee ones I use to dabble in photography and hope to one day again soon... I currently use a program so old that I could probably HAND fix pictures better than it can.. sad I know.. wiicked13 [at] yahoo [dot] com

Well I mentioned Monday that I missed Sundays entry due to the "neverending night of yuck" well.... I caught it from the little man but today I drug myself out of bed to enter because I really really want to win- My reason for today? I am the only designer in my store that I know of still using Elements (embaressing I know!) but hey you do whith what ya got right?
Thanks again!
Awesome giveaway! My hubby does design work and photography, so we would give this a great home:-)
Thanks for the chance to win.

Third Entry!
I have never used PS3 and would love to try it! :)
I don't have photoshop, and have to go to my friend's house way across town to doctor my Christmas card picture. How nice it would be to be able to play with my pictures at home.
This would be GREAT.
Thank you for hosting a giveaway, and have a great day.
Oh.my.gosh. I have been wanting this for so long! My husband recently got me a Nikon D40 and I have been dying to get my hands on this. But with Christmas and all of the holiday travelling...well, it's not in our budget right now.
leoandchelle(at)yahoo(dot)com
I would LOVE to win this because I've always wanted this software but couldn't justify the cost at this time. Thanks so much for the giveaway!

I would love to make Christmas Cards this year!
livlifelov at yahoo dot com
I would love to win this because I've already asked my hubs for this for Christmas. He could buy me something else if I won.

Here's my entry for today... man this was a long contest!?! Hope you are having a great one!
I have never even tried photoshop. I know, crazy- right? I want to but it's just too expensive. So, I would love to win so I can start making my pictures look fabulous like everyone else does.
ourhappyhappenings@gmail.com
i'd love to win this giveaway because i'm trying to get better with photography. being able to edit photos, design and make cool projects would be a blast for me!
michaelandkatherine [at] gmail
thanks!
Oh how I would love this!! I was laid off two months ago so I've started my own card design site and I use Photoshop Elements right now and it works fine BUT just think of the awesomeness I could do with CS3!!
Oh how I would love this!! I was laid off two months ago so I've started my own card design site and I use Photoshop Elements right now and it works fine BUT just think of the awesomeness I could do with CS3!!
I would love to win this! I have SO many pictures of my children that I really need to photoshop!!!
Oh man I'm back again. I want my photos to be saturated with CG color! I want my whites whiter and my brights brighter! Er, no I don't need laundry detergent I need CS3 in my life!!!
canole07 at yahoo dot com
i would love to win this program as i am:
1. a stay at home mom
2. a newcomer to the blogging community
3. just got a new camera and my elements 5.0 isn't cutting it
4. but i'm a sahm so there is no money in the budget for buying my own CS3 program
5.i'm sure my chances of winning are so slim - since there is a ton of posts on here - but if so you can reach me at ramfam2001@gmail.com
I want to win this because photography is one of my passions. And being able to transform ordinary photos into something extraordinary takes a good photoshop program!
My 8yo son will be so happy if we win this. He is anxious to learn the program with me. Thank you for giving us an opportunity at a great prize! FUN!
Wow. What a great giveaway. I would love to win this because it would be my real first step in design, and maybe it will convince that husband of mine that it's time to buy that dSLR camera that I've been wanting.
Thanks for the chance to win.
I like to take pictures and always wanted a good program so I could 'play around' with them more. Is that a good enough reason? (It's honest!)
shaunjoy (at) juno (dot) com
I would really love to win this since I like to take MANY MANY pictures of my grandaughter and family. This would be really cool to use and enhance those pics.
I would love to win this for my sister. She's just starting her own photography business and this is the program she was looking to get to help with editing the photos. thanks for the chance!
#9 -
I keep holding onto hope. I heart Photoshop. :)
flowers7886 at yahoo dot com
I am still dreaming of the photoshop!!! Ahhhh, love that dream. Everyone liked my pic of granddaughters in flowerpots on my blog. Imagine what I could do with photoshop. (O: Hey hide a key outside somewhere.
I would like to win this so I can fix my pictures & do some digital scrapping!
Thanks!
ericbrooks75(at)yahoo(dot)com
Because I really really want one and can't afford to buy it for myself.
does that count?
Frankly, I need this because I am learning design and well, I lack a really good program. :-)
mamarussell at gmail dot com
oooh i would love, love, LOVE to win this!!! i love to "dabble" in photography and play around with the pictures i take of my family. this would make my world so much bigger! not to mention be a perfect tool for me to use in my etsy shop! i know that this is definitely not something we can afford right now, so it would be wonderful to win! thanks for the chance! :)
check out my giveaway as well!!
laurieann65@gmail.com
I would love to win this because I am new to the whole web design thing and want to learn everything I can. I need something new to occupy the spaces in my mind...lol
This would be great because my husband dabbles in photography and is always installing one free editing program or another. NONE of which I can figure out how to use. Photoshop...I haven't used it in a while but it must be a bit like riding a bicycle, right?
I would really love this because my fiancee would use it all the time and it would make a wonderful Christmas present.
I've always wanted Photoshop but it's just so darn expensive!
I would love to have photoshop...because I dont have it now! Good reason, right?!
michelleharrod(at)hotmail(dot)com
I would love to win this. I would promptly force my husband to edit photos til he went crosseyed. We have some nice photos that just need a little touching up.
OK, I am back again today...I would like to win this because with CS3, I would finally be cooler than my brother. He's only on CS;)
C'mon random number generator...pick me!
What a generous giveaway!! I am a photographer and would love to win this!
My son hounds me frequently for a program like this. It would be an amazing tool for him to learn and play with...and when he's not using it, I could fool around with it, too!
melaniesands @ yahoo . ca
I would like to win because I am a scrapbooker and this would be very helpful!
I would love to win this because I just took a photoshop class! I want to get started on digital scrapbooking!
carriejb@gmail(dot)com
Oh my gosh. I REALLY WANT THIS! I have been using a very ancient version of photoshop and REALLY want to use CS3! With three kids under five, I don't get out much and photography is my main hobby.
Thanks!
Oh my gosh, this giveaway made my day. I don't care if it has been used, this is perfect.
I am getting ready to take a photography class. I don't have the best digital camera, but it is nice, and I would love to be able to do more with my pictures. Plus my teenage son would be thrilled, he has been begging for this, but it hasn't been in the cards.
Thanks for the chance.

KawaiiNeko2008 (at) aol (dot) com
I have been wanting photoshop for so long, but my husband has been in school and is now a resident and we owe THOUSANDS in loans, so it won't be for quite a while. I recently downloaded a free version to try of lightshop and played around with some of my photos and I'm so hooked, I want one so badly now. If I win I'll be your BFF!!
lindze_brooke*at*yahoo*dot*com
I would love this because I'm a scrapbooker through and through and I've just recently gone to digital almost completely. So now I have great need for a program like this to help me!

Sorry - hit 'enter' too soon!
I'm using An old Photoshop elements right now and have been hoping to upgrade it but the budget hasn't allowed for that for quite awhile!
anastasia@mediamafia.org
Day 3 -- I'm still posting. Why do I want to win this? I'm a software junkie. And the IRS won't let me buy software. LOL!! THANKS.
littlemelch at gmail dot com
I always had Photoshop at school and work, but now don't have it on my home PC. I'm lost with out it!
kbrite at gmail dot com
I would be so thrilled if I won this... I really need a good photo editing software. :-) My daughter was born almost six months ago and I'm taking pictures like crazy - it would be so nice to have a GREAT software to mess with her pictures with! I'm pretty limited right now. But thank you for the giveaway! Someone is going to be SO lucky!

another reason I would love to win is so I could be able to start my own business from home :-) Well its a good dream wouldn't you say? :-)
OOO I LOVE this giveaway! Thanks for offering it!
I've been wanting Photoshop SOOO bad but I can't afford it with planning my wedding right now. This would be a great early Christmas/Wedding present!:-)

hi!!! *waves madly* :) back again!! just wanted to enter a second time for the photoshop giveaway!!!
why would i love to win you ask? so that i could finish my baby's birth announcement! ...finally.... she is 9mo (yes i am a total slacker) but having PS would give me that finishing touch it still needs!!!
thanks again

kkelsyy@gmail.com
this would be so wonderful. i'd love to give it as a gift to my little sister, who is getting into graphic design stuff as a high schooler. she's been using gimp and other freeware, but it's been tough and she's been wanting some "real" stuff.
I'm a scrapbooker & I want to do more digital scrapbooking.
At my last job I was a typesetter and did a lot of things in Photoshop but would like to mess with it at home now. It's too expensive for me to justify purchasing right now, but if I could win it, I would love it so much!
Weird....sometimes the comment posts a day earlier than I wrote it.
Anyway, PhotoShop would solve all my problems. Say it isn't so.
I make custom cakes (kind of like Duff, from Ace of Cakes) but my camera is the WORST out there! Just about all my pictures are discolored or too dark. So I need a program to fix them. Right now, I just have to live with it, and it looks terrible when people want to see my work.
I am sooooooo wanting this, but just can't afford it!
I would love this because I'm stuck with Paint Shop Pro 6! haha
raspberrykitty at aol dot com
I want to win! ;)
No really, this would be fantastic! I'm working with CS and we're about to get a fancy new computer so this would go with it nicely! I love playing with my photos and I'm hoping to get better (and faster) and possibly do some photography for a side job!
teacherkrista at gmail dot com
It's already a new day where I live :).
Today's reason? Because I took a fabulous shot of a church tower last weekend, but it was really hazy and the sky looks pure white. It would look so much better with a clear blue sky!
Wow, what an awesome giveaway! I'd love this for manipulating my pictures for scrapbooking! And even making my own digital pages!
junglewife (at) gmail (dot) com
Good morning! Another day, another reason why I would really like to win this. OK, it's for the Fluffkinses. Those are two of my 4 cats and they are so gorgeous and adorable and smart and sweet that I want the very best for their pictures. (Am I pushing it?) Here they are:
http://www.catster.com/cats/642792 and http://www.catster.com/cats/643084
Thanks!!

Back for another comment today. I would also love to win this to help create graphics for my website. Thanks!
#10
That's the likely number of hours in a row per day you will find me at the computer playing with Photoshop. IF I win, of course. If not, well then that will be the number of pots of ashes I will have to heap upon my head...
flowers7886 at yahoo dot com
I'm definitely an amateur, but have been having lots of fun taking pictures of my son and family and would like to get a bit more creative. Thanks for hosting!
hedwards25(at)yahoo(dot)com
Day #4 comment. I really want to do my scrapbooks with this!
so last night i kept thinking about how great it would be to have my very own cs3. ohhh...all the things i could do. but like i said in my previous entry...my budget for such luxuries is empty. did i mention how nice you are to just be giving this away??? you could have totally sold this program.
okay, so down to a better reason. i am going to be starting a photography class in a few weeks. (an awesome gift) and would love to have this great program to work on my photos with.
OH MY GOODNESS. I think I missed a day of commenting.
But it's all good. That wasn't the one I needed to win, now was it? LOL!! Cause I'm just waiting. Waiting to win. :D
I've entered once already, but wanted to toss my name in the hat again. What a long shot, LOL! You would make two retired folks who LOVE photography very, very happy! We enjoy this hobby together and it meshes well with our love of travel. I have some really pretty pics on my blog too, so I would be spreading the joy to others! Pick me - PLEASE!
stitcherylove[at]yahoo[dot]com
Ok people quit entering this contest your killing my chances!! I think this is day #9 right- I've kinda lost track...
I could use this to help stop world hunger- well maybe not on such a grand scale but I could use it in my for Charity digital scrapbook kits which I and other designers colaberated on to help in charitable causes.
Thanks again Karen!

I would use this to help edit my photos and start up my photo business. Right now I use free online tools and while they work, I could really use Photoshop!

I am trying to teach myself some graphic design for my blog and this would be PERFECT!!
I have a niece and nephew who I take TONS of pictures of! Unfortunately my pics could often use a little help!
I have a lot of vintage and antique photographs that I would like to fix. Some of them have fading or other problems.
Thanks

I would love, love, love to win the Photoshop pack!!! I've been using an ancient version, and I would love to have this! It would be a great early Christmas present =) Thanks for the chance!
I already said I would love to win in order to make better blogs, have Lisa do better in her photography class and/or yearbook... Then I said I would like to use it to maybe start my own home business... now here is my last entry/reason... cause I think this is about the most AWESOME thing I could EVER use!
i don't know how but i'd like to see if could teach myself to restore old familly photos.I'm talking about where apart of the face is missing but they fix it buy mirroring it. I pretty sure that this could get the job done. I'd also like to learn how to get the creases taken out some photos so that they look nice and new! whew, i could care less if this was used once, it's really nice of you to offer it. thank you for the chance!

Would love this for my husband. He takes a lot of photos for the band and spends time "messing" with them, cropping, etc. then posting on Shutterfly or somewhere so they can all order what they like. I am talking lots of hours of work for free just so the kids can enjoy themselves. Would be a wonderful tool for him.
Thanks for having the giveaway!
Just getting in one more entry.. Bless you DH for actually getting you something you wanted... Think he can talk to my hubby?... with the holidays I need a new program soo here's to hoping... wiicked13 [at] yahoo [dot] com

i am just getting started in photography and i am currently using my roomates (who is also a photographer) photoshop to edit my photos. since we both take pics, it would be lovely to have my own copy so i didn't have to take up time on hers!
thanks!

I've been in the process of learning how to redesign my blog and I'd love to be able to use photoshop to make my own header.
I also have several photos languishing on the computer waiting for something. Maybe their waiting to get spruced up with photoshop.
I would like to win this because I have heard great things about it and I still use Gimp for my graphics.

I am a SAHM with hopes of one day having an at home business. I used to be a designer in vinyl graphics, I believe that is something I could do from home fairly easily. The Illustrator Program is the one I know best and works great with vinyl cutting programs from my experience.

It's the last day...
I officially have another favorite blog to read. Even if you're not doing a contest, I happen to like what you have going on around this corner of the blogosphere.
So, I don't have any more reasons why I would like to win, because so many people could use it. I'm sure whoever wins it will put it to good use!
Thanks for the chance, Karen!

And what is a tablet without photoshop?

I am back for my 4th comment, I hope it's a lucky one! I would love to win this because of the fantastic cards I could create and the smiles I could bring to the faces of those that receive them. Thanks again!
Your blog is super cute- and guess what- this is the last giveaway i'm entering.
Phtoshop could ultimatly let me stay home with my son if I open up a graphic design shop...which I have always wanted to do!
Thank you,

Wow Day #11 and my final shot at this (unless I sneak in one final comment just after midnight for another chance)
So my reason for today? Easy- I purchased some actions a month or so ago to use in my designs but not reading the fine print (typical me) I failed to see that they didn't work in elements =( . So if I won this I could do all sorts of fun things to the elements in my scrapbook kits- AND I'll make you cookies or brownies or your favorite treat! (I'm shameless I know!)
Thanks again Karen! audrajjensen(at) msn dot com
Ah...the anticipation builds. The last day is here. By now, it's obvious how much I'd love to have this. Along with umpteen other commenters. I know it would be well-loved and used here by my son and me. It's a wonderful giveaway, Karen. Thanks for doing this - no matter who wins.
love,
dianne :-)

entry # 3
wow...the thought actually owning the CS3 program. I was just hoping to be able to buy the ps 7 program...but thinking of all the things i could do with CS3 instead.
i would love this program because i just enrolled in a photography class. somehow managed to convince my husband to let me get a new canon camera. and think i am limited by my elements 5 program. Yet with paying for the class and camera...the piggy bank will be to empty to purchase my own newer version of any photoshop program.
thanks for the opportunity to enter the contest. ramfam2001@gmail.com
My sister is just starting a photography business and this is the exact program she wants for processing photos. She would be SHOCKED to receive it for Christmas. I'll be crossing my fingers and toes ;-)
Yes, I would love to have this! Why, because I've heard so many good things about it and want to put it to the test for myself. I just don't have the money to spend on a copy right now. Thanks for the chance to win it!
Blessings,

What a great give away, whoever wins will be lucky. I'd love to win it to use on the pictures I take of my daughters, I have so many that are beautiful and with the touch up I could do with this they'd look professional.
Friday - last day. I hope I remembered Thursday. So why do I want this? Because I REALLY would like something to go my way. Today, I had to take the car into the shop because the clutch and gears weren't working. Good thing I don't have to drive to work (that would mean I had a job). I'm not a slouch I'm just feeling like my share of bad karma is a bit much right now.
Thanks for listening (if you are listening).

Hi, It is the 31st. I don't see my comments from the last few days. I trust that they are there though. It is Halloween. I have taken some pictures of the girls at their pre school parade. Hmmmm pictures, that reminds me of PHOTOSHOP. Yes it does! Love to have it. (O:
