I’m super, super excited to share this collaboration with you all! Last year I was commissioned by US-based Mama Elephant to design some lettering for their clear stamps. I seriously couldn’t wait how they’d turn out. To welcome the release of ‘Make A Wish’, the first installment of my lettering for Mama Elephant, we are hosting a giveaway for you all! Along with Kryssi and Angela of ME, we are giving away a free set of the ‘Make A Wish’ clear stamp to celebrate this collaboration.
To have a chance to win this lovely set, comment below and tell us:
What do you wish for today?
This is open to anyone anywhere in the world! We will choose the best answer and I’ll announce the lucky one one on March 27, 2014. Just to be sure you’ll find out if you won, follow the Happy Hands Project on Facebook and Instagram. Why not drop by the ME Blog to get those creative juices running, too? Can’t wait to hear your thoughts!
I wish for a better health, and nothing else 🙂
Love that stamp set! It’s really great!
Welcome to Mama Elephant, Pauline!! Your lettering is GORGEOUS!
I wish with all my might that the mystery of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 is solved and that the passengers haven’t sustained any major injuries to spare the torment and grief that hundreds of friends and families are currently experiencing not knowing where their loved ones are and what happened to them.
I really really wish for a holiday!! I’m over exhausted and need a break…
But I would settle for some crafting supplies…they are the next best thing after a day at the beach! 😀
CONGRATS!! So happy that you joined the Mama Elephant Family. Now for my wish, I Wish It would stop snowing here in Chicago….not much to ask for. Lol there is such much needed spring weather out here.
Consider me your newest fan, Pauline! I love what you designed for ME; your handwriting is dreamy! My wish for today? I wish for enough time and energy to exercise and do some crafting…good for the body and mind:)
Congrats! Fabulous stamps and thanks for the chance to win!
Perhaps isn’t a big thing for you: It is very seldom, my honey and I can have dinner together. My wish for today: having dinner with my love ?
Ohhhh your handwriting is gorgeous!! I want to learn calligraphy, I love writing!!!
My Wish I want to go and meet my parents, its been soooo long I haven’t met them, even writing this makes me cry!!!!
My wish for today is having a nicer weather. 🙂
Thank you so much for the wonderful give away! Your design is beautiful!
Today I wish for peace and joy and the Make A Wish stamp set to make cards to share JOY with others!
My grandkids just got back from a wonderful “Make A Wish” vacation, so the sentiment has a kind of double meaning for me. I wish good health for them and all the other children of the world.
I do love the handwriting and size of these sentiments. Great job!
Today, I wish for some will power to complete all those pending projects that have been lying in my craft room for quite some time now. And, of course wishing for crafty goodies too, to help me on my way 😀
What an awesome stamp set! My wish for today would be to win it ;). And my other wish… That I wouldn’t be so crazy nervous when exposing my work (or myself, which is part of the work ;)).
Hello from Mama Elephant’s blog! 🙂
I really wish for today that I’m creative enough to get the things done I would to get done!
Thanks so much for the chance at this fun set!!
My wish is for faith and hope!! God bless!!
Congratulations! It’s a beautiful set! Today I wish that I could finish my taxes…so boring I know, but it’s hanging over my head and I have a bit of time to try and finish them up today.
I wish that my two older boys who have been feuding for the past six months will be able to set it aside and be brothers to each other and set the family on an even keel again. The card is so cute. Thanks for sharing and for the chance to win. Love the script design of the message. The swirls on the beginning and ending of the letters is so elegant.
Congratulations and wow your handwriting is amazing. That set is really great. Thanks for the chance to win.
My wish right this moment is to hear the good news that MH370 has been found, all passengers safe and accounted for. By giving the families the chance to reunite with their loved ones, it only goes to show that wishes and prayers go a long way… as long as there is HOPE..
For the world, i wish for all mysteries surrounding the disappearance of Malaysia Airline MH370 to be solved so that the families of the passengers can have an answer. I also wish for Ukraine/Russia unrest to cool down quickly.
For myself i wish for good health for myself and my loved ones. May we all find peace in times of unrest and anxiety, and find time to celebrate life!
I wish for good health for me and all of my LOVED ones!! Lots of time left to spend with one another and the AMAZING MEMORIES that we’ll cherish forever!! LOVE the New set and CONGRATS on Designing a winner!! I look forward to seeing more!! Have a Fabulous Week!! =)
Gorgeous writing. My wish is that people would appreciate their own gifts and talents, and not wish they had the talent of the person next to them. If they embraced what God gave them, they wouldn’t wish for anything else 🙂
Your handwriting is amazingly beautiful:-) !!!
I wish and do pray for inner peace everyday for myself and my family and that my only son who’s in college is safe and happy while juggling his studies and stresses of everyday life:-)
Gorgeous stamp set; your handwriting is stunning! I work in a mobile food pantry once a week, and my wish is that no one goes hungry.
What I wish for today is some answers in the Malaysia Airlines mystery….my heart goes out to all the families of the passengers who are waiting in such anguish for some news. May God bless them and comfort them.
Congratulations! I love this set! Today, as I sit here during yet another winter storm, I wish that this seemingly never ending winter would end. We need Spring! Sun, warmer temps, flowers, oh, how I wish!
Congratulations on your collaboration with Mama Elephant! Best wishes that it is a long and fruitful one. Your first set is beautiful.
My wish is for signs of spring – a glimpse of a robin, the first peek of a daffodil. We’ve had a brutal winter here. Six more inches of snow fell last night, so I am more than ready for Spring and the feeling of renewal that comes with it.
I wish for happy days ahead, for all of us 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
OMG, love, love, love your handwriting!!! I need to get my hands on these cute sentiments! My wish for today, is that They can find the Malaysia Airline that went missing last Saturday. Praying for the victims and their family! My heart goes out to them and I hope they find them soon!
Congrats on joining ME; your lettering is stunning! My wish: my nephew turns two (where did the time go!!) today, so I’m wishing him a most marvelous, fabulous, awesome day today – and wishes for a zillion x a zillion more incredibly wonderful days to come! Hugs and kisses to my sweet boy! Thanks for the generous give-away opportunity!

I saw Laura Bassen use this stamp set @ Online Card Classes & loved it! So I came here to look at your cards too. They’re adorable!
I’d sure love to win this stamp set.
wishing health and happiness to everyone
My wish is that I will always be able to support my stamp addiction, I mean card making hobby. It’s cheaper than therapy I always say, especially with 9 year old Quadruplets running around.
Love your lettering!! I am a new fan of yours for sure! My wish would be to have some time to do some cardmaking! I have a 1month old and a 4 year old so not a lot of time for my hobby these days. Hopefully soon 🙂
I ran across your blog and I have t say I’m in LOVE with this stamp set. :))
OMG Pauline, your hand lettering is absolutely beautiful and I’m happy that I’ll be able to get a portion of it through this gorgeous ME stamp set (added it to my wish list *he he*).
What I really wish for is health for my whole family (from my almost 90 years old beloved grandma to my sweet little baby girl).
Hugs, Anja
I wish that everyone else’s wishes come true.
And then my wish would come true too!
Thanks for the chance to win!!
Your calligraphy is stunning. So fresh and the stamp set will be used (by me) often. Today I wish for peace to all those who are suffering from any kind of strife.
Great handwriting, it looks so great in a card as sentiment, love that
Oh I just adore your handwriting! I am so excited about this stamp set being released! It’ll be a must have! I so wish for my family to be happy today! Simple but good wishing!
Congrats for both you and ME and all of us ME fans! Because this is a great union! LOVE your handwritting, it’s gorgeous and sweet and perfect!! Great stamp set 🙂
I wish for a product I could use to transfer lettering onto which ever craft I’m working on, you’d think such a product would be easily available, but it’s not! There are really only a few ways of achieving a good transfer, but it’s really chickee to get crisp clear lettering done! Like so many others my handwriting looks terrible! Who wants to ruin a beautiful project with awful handwriting?
As an animal lover, my wish would be for all animal abuse to end. And for people to be kind to one another. And, congrats on joining Mama Elephant!
Totally in LOVE with this set and would LOVE LOVE LOVE to win it! Good Luck to all….and if I don’t win, I’ll be hoping it’s available to buy VERY SOON!
In love with your writing! So happy you will be creating for such a wonderful company. If I could have one wish today it would be to be given a complete day off from both of my jobs so that I can spend time with my kids. Being the sole provider can be tough and involves sacrifices, like not spending as much time with them as I would like.
Posted on the wrong comment section, sorry!
I’m awaiting some news about test results…so that is my wish today. To hear good news! What amazing stamps!! Thanks for the chance to win!
I wish my son would take a nap without crying for once. :/
I’m so excited to have found your website~~ I love your writing! Congrats on your collaboration with ME!
What I wish every day: world domination! 😛
xoxo
I wish for more tolerance and more peace on earth. I also wish for people coming together and tackle the challenges of global warming, as the hardships and suffering from the inflicted damage will only get worse and significantly increase in the future.
Lastly I wish I had better handwriting 😉
Your lettering is gorgeous.
My wish is for spring. Warm days, green grass, sunshine and flowers.
I wish my handwriting was as beautiful as yours…the stamps are gorgeous!!
Congrats for the new release! Your handwriting is awesome!!
I wish I could handwrite like you!! Lol
No, seriously, I wish peace and serenity in my mind and in my life and lord please a job!!!
But if I can’t have all those things I could go for the handwriting lol

Gorgeous writing,if only mine was half as nice.My only wish is for my children to be happy & healthy.Thanks for the chance to win x
This might be too much of a downer but I really wish for my marriage to work and be strong again. We have had terrible ups and downs for the past few months and we are starting on a path to finding eachother again.
Yay for you and ME – what a fantastic collaboration! My wish for today is for my poor dogs to be flea-free. I hate to see them scratching! Hope the bath and flea medicine works their magic!
I cant wait for this day to be over im going out of town tomorrow 🙂

My wish is for a little time to myself! I’m burned out!
Wow! Your lettering is absolutely gorgeous! You have earned a new big fan of your work. That stamp set is beautiful!

Wow! Your lettering is absolutely gorgeous! You have earned a new big fan of your work. That stamp set is beautiful! Today my wish is that I have a good nights sleep!!! This time change in Califronia has got me all messed up! Ha ha! What time is it again?!
I’m wishing for an end to this winter that seems to be lasting way too long!
My wish is that the children of these war torn countries will be spared from the agony and atrocities that they have had to ender in Syria things are very bleak babies are dying because Mothers can’t get prenatal care. There is now an out break of polio because only 50% of the children have received their shots. I don’t mean to be a downer but we are citizens of the world and must find a way to help these innocent children. Hug your children and feel blessed that we live in the country we do. I wish you all good health, peace and love.
LOVE this set…and your handwriting is just gorgeous!! I wish that my husband could find a job in the States so he wouldn’t have to work 16000 miles away in a war zone!!
I was diagnosed with breast cancer in January 2006. My wish would be for a clean bill of health. On the frivolous side, my second wish would be for summer to be here tomorrow. Enough with the snow 🙂
i wish all our dreams could come true ! love this stamp set, thanks for the chance to win.x
Welcome to the Mama Elephant team. I love the set you have designed – your script is beautiful!
Forgot to to add my wish. Today I wish the dogs at the vet/kennel near work would stop barking! The noise is driving me nuts while I am trying to work (and sneak peaks at your work – shhh!). Add to that, i am dog sitting and that puppy barks all day at everything and anything! My wish: enough with the barking! 🙂 (in a non grumpy way)
Congratulations on your adventure with ME! Your new set is an absolute must-have! Wow – it’s not too often I get asked what I’d wish for. My greatest wish is for my children to learn self-assertiveness so that they can properly deal with the bullies on the bus, at school, at their after school activities, as well as the adults they will encounter later in their lives. Thanks for asking!
I wish for my parents to stay happy and healthy and to enjoy their traveling as much as they can. I owe them everything. Congratulations on the beautiful stamp set collab with Mama Elephant!
Beautiful! I wish for my family to stay healthy.
Such a lovely new set! Congrats 🙂
Wishing for some cooler weather & some good news on the job search front!
Thanks for the giveaway 🙂
I love the new set! So beautiful!
I wish for a little less crying and fighting from my 4 crazy boys… is that too much to wish for?
and I just saw you live in singapore… as do I !! So great to know about someone a bit closer to my new home!
Congratulations, Pauline! I would wish for more joy in people’s hearts…everywhere, so that there could be more peace at home, in neighborhoods, in cities, states and countries!
Congrats on your
new opportunity!
Today, I’m wishing
for a new job. I’ve
been with mine for
32 years, but it’s
getting old and worn
out lately.
Carla from Utah
I wish for my children to grow up to be happy, healthy adults who are able to support a family financially and emotionally. Wow that is huge. I hope it comes true. I just love your Make a Wish stamp set and I am happy you are designing for Mama Elephant.

Love your writing! Today I wish for a little nap with my soft little fur baby, Catapult!
Welcome to Mama Elephant! I love sentiments that can become the focal point of a card. I wish for more time to stamp!
I wish 1 day is 30 hrs instead of 24…To have More “time” in juggling things I need, desperately need, want & ultimately want in a day (in correct order as I mentioned: 1. multiple daily work deadlines; 2.playtime + teaching my daughters; 3.to cook, bake + go out with my kids; 4. to do my art stuff, crafts + trekking)
Beautiful set, your lettering is gorgeous! Today especially (we just had a huge snow storm), I wish I could go on vacation somewhere sunny and warm.
Congrats on ME team. I love calligraphy so I am glad you are part of the team. I would love to take a class if you are ever in the Utah area. I wish that all my kids will be happy and healthy.
My wish for today is to have a moment alone to quiet the mind and a smile to nourish the soul.
Gorgeous lettering.
Love the Mama Elephant + Happy Hands Project collaboration! This stamp set is super-cute! My wish is for more time to spend with friends and family and more time to craft too! 🙂
Beautiful lettering and I love these sentiments! I need some Happy birthday sentiment stamps. 🙂 I wish to feel well when I see my family on Saturday. Thanks for sharing.
Katie B.

In two weeks Lord willing our daughter and grand daughters are coming to visit us by train. Can’t wait to see them. I wish for there safe arrival.
I wish to not feel like a walking pharmacy with all the meds I take at 42 years old and the illnesses I have it would be nice not feel that way.

My sister-in-law was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer last week. She is still getting tests done this week to determine the extent and stage of the cancer. She already knows that she’s going to need a mastectomy, and possibly a double mastectomy and hysterectomy. She has 5 children between the ages of 5 and 23 and two grandchildren who all need her in their lives. My wish is that they have caught it in time to cure it, and I wish for successful surgery and a full recovery.
I wish for a holiday with my family to have more pictures to fill my Project Life pages.
Lovely collaboration!
Your lettering is so lovely! Can I wish for unlimited wishes? 😉 No? Then I simply wish for good things for everyone 🙂

I wish everyone would do something nice for someone today. Preferably anonymous!
Such a beautiful script on these new stamps…WOW! I think it’s a font that I will use on my cards for many years to come! Great collaboration, ladies!
wow congratulations.. I love Mama Elephant stamps and you are a sweet addition.. this set is amazing.. Looking forward to seeing your feature designs..
I’d love to say I wish no one had to wish for anything, but then one of your beautiful stamps would go to waste! So today I wish for laughter.
I wish for a world where all people have love and laughter in their lives.
I had been wishing for time with my mom and it happened! She came from Mexico this past weekend and will be here all week. I hope someone else’s wish comes true and makes them as happy as mine did.
Beautiful work! Love your design!!
What an awesome colaboration with Mama Elephant! I adore this stamp set. If I could have a wish for today it would be for my crafting wish list-which now includes this stamp set, to magically appear on my doorstep.
What a beautiful stamp set! My wish for today – peace and calm within my family at a rather difficult time. Thanks for chance to win!
I wish to be grateful for the little things throughout my day!
My 9yr old daughter Phoebe is going to a sleepover tonight. I wish, wish, wish she feels happy enough to stay the whole night because if she doesn’t, she won’t be going on her school camp next week. I really don’t want her to miss out on that but don’t want to send her if she is frightened. Thanks so much for the chance to win!!!
If I could wish one thing I would wish everyone looked at each day and vowed to make it just better for one other person through an act of kindness. Could you imagine what our would would be like it everyone did this?
My wish is the same every day: that my children and grandchildren have a safe and happy day. Thanks for a chance to win the great set.
Awesome calligraphy! I wish that all Rescue dogs and cats will be placed in permanent homes with loving parents! There’s so many animals in the rescues that it just breaks my heart. I wish I could adopt them all but I can’t…I can only wish and hope that it will happen.
Congrats on a beautiful and fun design! Wow, there’s some really profound wishes ahead of me and my wish is that they all come true! Oh and also – I wish I could resist chocolate!
I wish that everybody in the world gets a chance at happiness, whether it be finding love, receiving a hot meal, or making others happy. (:
Anyways. Thanks for the giveaway. XD
gorgeous! I wish for happy hearts! 🙂
I wish that spring will get here soon. It gets warm for a day or two and then the temperature drops to cold again. I’m ready to be able to open the windows and let the fresh air in, to be able to sit outside and read, to be able to go out without having to worry about snow. thanks for the chance to win a cut stamp.
Love your bear with his balloons.
Beautiful stamp set.
My wish is for spring to hurry up and get here.
There has been enough cold and snow for this winter!
A girl can Hope, right?
Came here from the ME blog. Your handwriting and those sentiments are just gorgeous. My sister in law needs surgery to repair a botched double mastectomy. She has suffered so much, and my wish is for a successful surgery and speedy return to health for her.
Your calligraphy is just gorgeous — I saw this stamp on a card by Laura Bassen on Online Card Classes. I wish for health and happiness for my friends and family!
Wishing for health and happiness to whole family!!love ur hndwritting so much
Congratulations on your new adventure with Mama Elephant. I can see why they asked you to design lettering stamps. Your handwriting and swirls are beautiful.
My wish is a cure for cancer that does not cause patients to suffer horribly. With all my heart I wish this nasty disease had a cure so no child nor adult ever had to suffer with it again. Currently my dad is fighting his second bought of cancer. I’ve lost grandparents, an uncle, an aunt and friends to cancer and I pray there is a cure before another loved one passes.
Perfect stamp set; your hand lettering is beautiful!! I wish for more time to be creative.
An absolutely wonderful debut set for Mama Elephant! I live it so much!! My wish? I wish for many more stamp sets featuring your gorgeous hand lettering!!
I would love for my husband to come back for a day so I could show him all of the changes that have happened in the family over the past 10 years. The granddaughter finished college and is a registered audiologist. She’s married to a wonderful man now. The world has changed so much – prices of food has sky-rocketed, cyber-world has exploded, the kids (in their 50’s) are happy and healthy, as am I (in my 70’s)
When his day was up I would like to be able to tell him goodbye properly. He slipped away during the night and none of us got to be there with him when he went. that is the thing I regret the most. The only way I would hope he could stay would be if he was healed of the cancer that was killing him. I wouldn’t want him to go back to suffering from the cancer. thanks.
Your card is soooo cute.
Thanks for sharing.
What do I wish for? Well I have everything a girl could ever want a loving husband, a daughter who has grown up to be a wonderful person, a roof above my head and plenty of food to eat so my wish would be that everyone has the chance to be this lucky.
Crafty hugs,
D~

I wish there was some news for the relatives of the Malaysian Flight
What a nice stamp set.
There are so many things to wish for, but today I wish that the missing Malaysian airplane would be found so that the families might find some peace. I also hope that it was nothing more than an accident, although that seems unlikely at this point.
What a great set!
I wish for a peaceful and healthy life. Boring right? LOL
I wish luck on the exam tomorrow ^^
Hello Pauline! 🙂
Thanks for the comment on my blog. I’ve also just managed to sign up for a slot in your 10 May class at The Workshop and I absolutely can’t wait!
Right now, I wish for more clarity on the Malaysian Airlines flight, that some news will come to light and that the family of the passengers all receive peace.
Followed you for a while — love your style. So happy to see it in a stamp
Such a beautiful stamp set! I wish for school to be over for me. 😉
My 9 month old kept me up a bunch last night and I’m very tired. So my wish for today is to have patience for her as well as my other 3 kids. :). Motherhood= extreme joy and sleep deprivation for many years. Ha!
I wish for my children to be healthy and happy.
Beautiful calligraphy and perfect sentiments! My wish is for good health and peace. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome stamp set.
I love your handwritung and the new set. Caught my eye immediately. My hope for today is to have peace and love in our family.
Gorgeous stamp set, love it! I wish to win this stamp set! Ha ha!
With all the chaos in the world, I truly and sincerely wish for world peace! 😉
I wish I had nicer handwriting! That’s why I need these sentiment stamps!
Gorgeous lettering, can’t wait to see more of your artistry in ME stamps!
This was a hard question for me to answer. I thought very hard about it and came up with a wish that my mother could have a happy life. She took good care of my dad when he had dementia even though it was difficult. Less than a year after he died, she had to have an operation. While recovering she fell several times and injured her head and ended up with dementia. Now she lives in a nursing home. They take good care of her but she just seems sad.
