For all my lovely blog readers, a chance to win a bird brooch of your choice (in slightly belated celebration of new packaging and more birds)! All you need to do is to leave a comment to say which is your favourite from the following fifteen. I'll draw names from a hat to find the winner and if you follow my blog/twitter or 'like' my Facebook page you get another entry in the hat, or two or three extra entries depending on how many!
Here come the birds (the swan also comes on a swanny piece of card, but looks better against the blue):
Competition closes at 23.59 (GMT) on Saturday. If you would like more information on a particular brooch or to buy one now have a look in my shop. Good luck and thank you!

So many lovely pins!
Hard to choose a favourite, but I love that cheeky look on the Toucans face!
Another Twitter follower ( @ElliWhyte ) :)
Robin is definately my fav. I love those little robins. We call them 'roodborstje', which translates into: 'Little red chest'.
A few weeks ago I spotted one in our alley. I live in the middle of a city and we don't have gardens here, so I didn't expect to find a Robin. It was quite a cool surprise.
Love your work! Good luck with this competition =D
i love them all! ^^, think the robin may be my fav though! :)
Hello Kate!
I am going to choose the Robin-pin. Why? Well, I named my daughter Merel which means 'blackbird' in Dutch. We always joke that if we will ever be blessed with a little son, his name will be Robin...
You are a great artist, keep up the good work!
Love from Holland,

all these are absolutely beautiful, they are are all great but I love the colours of the woodpecker.
love the new blog background!
hoo-ah! I've followed you on Twitter (@diandramae) ever since I saw a tweet promoting your new book (congrats, btw!), and I stalk your Etsy shop.
I love your work, Kate! And you are inspiring me to go back to the collage I loved years ago and give it another twirl!
I think the woodpecker would make a nice addition to my arty bird collection. :D
Flamingo Flamingo Flamingo I am just in love with the Flamingo. @MarDixon
Flamingo Lover. Wait, that doesnt sound right.
I LOVE your badges, Kate! My fave is the Kingfisher, with the Robin coming in a very close second! I also follow your Twitter and FB :o) xxx
they're all beautiful, but my favourite is definitely the robin - totally adorable. x
That's so difficult to choose one! I love the Owl, the robin, the kingfisher...
love the woodpecker. although all your work is so fun.
Goldfinch pls!!!
The brooches are so beautiful, and I've bought Magpies Treasure for my nephews! Also love the new book coverollowing your blog and 'like' you on FB! :o) x
These are all so beautiful! It's such a difficult decision.
I think my favourite is the owl though!
As much as i love owls, i think this time it has to be the flamingo. I went to see this at the YSP it looked beautiful :)
Oh they're all just too gorgeous. I scrolled up, I scrolled down, I scrolled up... In the end, if I had to choose - I think I'd love that little Hummingbird.
Beautiful work!
They're all beautiful but I like the flamingo the best!
Oh happy day! =) I found you on Etsy some time ago [urbanwhimsy] and have read your blog since, though I am not a "follower"...I do "like" you though [tabitha camille sumner/fb]
I have a small shop named Feathering the Nest, so you can perhaps imagine how much I love your art. My most favorite pin is the swan.
Tabitha
I bloody love the Bee Eater! My goodness he's adorable!
The Bluebird is my favorite, although they are all so beautiful!
I follow your blog via Google Connect and I'm also a fan of your Facebook page (as Irit Caspi).
They're all adorable but the little robin is my favourite. I love the colours :)
I do believe that the bee-eater is my favourite (although they are obviously all very lovely). I also believe that I might be the first male comment (sincerest apologies if I am not).
Been a big admirer of your work for a while now and it was a pleasure to be featured alongside you on creaturemag a little bit ago. Also following on twitter (@JamieMilk)
Thanks!
All of your brooches are so, so lovely Kate! The Owl has to be my favourite though - I love his subtle colours.
They're all lovely, good work! I think i love the robin one best though.
I <3 the cardinal! :)
I absolutely love them all!
Almost impossible to choose one but I do have an especial soft spot for the gorgeous woodpecker!
Katherine (@followtheyellow)
Ohhhh, tough call, but the Hummingbird is my favourite!
I follow your blog and 'like' your facebook page also :D
i love all of them! the flamingo awwww
All gorgeous! my faves are the humming bird and Robin, but all so beautiful! my kids are still loving Magnus!:)
They are so beautiful! But I >think< my fave is the woodpecker, because he is so unusual (I never see depictions of them flying) & because he looks like he's about to fly off the page over my shoulder!
How rude-I'm "Mystery Shopper"
Well, this is Kye, from twitter :) *wave*
PS: saw on someones comment that you've got a facebook page, I'm going to go fine you now!
thats a really hard question because i love all of them!!!ok i like the owl because of my strange fascination with them, the robin because it reminds me of the little friendly one thats always in my back garden and the flamingo cause its so damn pretty.
i love all your work its really inspirational to a illustrator in training:)
These are exquisite, the packaging is gorgeous, what are the made of?
sorry, woodpecker, but really all of them!
Thanks everyone who's entered so far!
Paul, they're prints of my bird illustrations mounted on 2mm mountboard, cut out by hand with my trusty craft knife and finally varnished til they're strong and shiny. Glad you like the packaging!
I love the flamingo!It's my favorite bird...I have many things with flamingos(wall stickers,posters,cards, figurines etc.) and I would love to have a pin with a flamingo;)
I follow you on the blog and on FB:)
Many wishes from Anne Sofie,from Denmark
they are all so beautiful but i love the owl so much! cheers!
Lovely! I think my favorite is the Kingfisher.
Lovely! I think my favorite is the Kingfisher.
The robin is my favourite.
I follow your blog and am a Facebook fan!
All beautiful but I would have to go with the Kingfisher if I was the lucky one though. Fingers crossed!
Not easy to choose... but, I think my favorite is the Robin !
nice work !
They all look so beautiful!
But if i had to pick one i think i would go for the parakeet, it would brighten up any outfit!!
I love following your blog (really like the re-design), and i also follow on facebook, love seeing your work its such an inspiration.
They are all so lovely! But my favourite is the robin-he's so cute and fun!
it's really hard to choose but I'd have to go with the Robin. They always seem to win my heart.
I would go for the pink flamingo! although I would ideally like all of them to pin onto a blue jumper...so I could wear my own flock of birds!
Goldfinch is may favourite. The reason being is that we have a visiting Goldfinch who hangs out near our house and I can sense that as Winter fades and Spring is on its way, that he's on his way back. He sometimes sits on the telephone wire in front of my study. He's great company! Your brooch reminds me of him.
It's such a tough choice, but I keep coming back to the robin! x
These are all lovely and I really like the backings for them all too. If I have to pick a favourite it would be the hummingbird - it's beautiful. Fingers crossed! :)
They are all tremendous! If i was wearing one i would like it to be the bullfinch!
well i love them all, so wonderful...but having to choose i would say the Robin :0)
argh! kate! they're all so beautiful. My favourite is the woodpecker...no...the owl...no the woodpecker i think. its a tough call!
got to be the flamingo i think, they're great!:)
I love them all but it's between the robin and the hummingbird xxxx
Oh My ..they are ALL so beautiful!! I must go with my Spirit Guide..the cardinal!
Love them, so original!
Ooooooo I must say, the robin is muchly divine! Very very nice!
hard to choose but I do love the woodpecker ;)
Already following your blog!
Tweeted about your gorgeous giveaway here http://twitter.com/#!/print_for_love
WOW! These are beautiful. I'm so glad Hannah retweeted the link so I could find you! Love your work, I also collect illustrated children's books so just added yours to my list to buy.
I am struggling to pick a favourite bird brooch, but I would be happy with any if I was lucky to win.
T. (@ollierocks)
I would love to buy them all and mount them as an art piece on the wall...oops rhyme is totally not on purpose!
If i were so lucky as to win, i'd hope to receive the woodpecker.
These are truly stunning. Beautiful work Ms Slater.
And as for a fav, the kingfisher.
Mmh.. all of them ?
Though it is a bit hard to pick a favorite, I would go for the bullfinch. I just love the impression of speed you gave him !
Ahh they are all so beautiful! It'd have to be swan for me, he's looking pretty swish! :D xx
They are gorgeous!!! I love the owl
I adore the hummingbird. We stay on an American relatives farm in Michigan most summers and they have hummingbird feeders there, it is so amazing to watch the birds as they hover to feed.
I love the Kingfisher!!!
They are all beautiful, I love the red hummingbird. Love all your work.
