Favorite Friday

This week I chose Retromama as my favorite to feature. I hearted her quite awhile back because I admired the fabric that she used for her creations, and the creations themselves! Just recently I saw a picture of hers on Flickr and remembered how much I like her shop. Right now I am in love with her Pear pillows! Her banner is fabulous too.

Give Away!

Ok, so there is exactly 2 weeks before I celebrate my Etsy-versary, and I wanted to give something away! Anyone who comments on my blog in the next 14 days will be entered in for their choice of 3 free cards from my shop! Any card you want! All you have to do is comment...and say that you would like to be entered, and you're in!

I will contact you in 2 weeks: October 23, and then you can go through my shop and let me know which cards you would like to have. I will, of course, ship them free of charge!

The link to my shop is right on this blog page. Thanks for participating!

This baby wipe case from lucabelle0522:


And this set from Allisajocobs:

It's so hard to choose! Anyone have other great baby gifts I should see to confuse my thought process any more?!

Favorite Friday

My next favorite shop is Beanpicklesprout. I just love all her items, and have shopped there for a lot of baby gifts. Her shop name is just plain fun, and the reason she decided on it is great too- take a look at her profile! She also has a blog...check it out!

I've been tagged!

I have been tagged by Backwoodsophisticate! Take a look at her great blog: My Crafty Life

Here are the details:

1. Link to your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog - some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blog.
4. Let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

Here are my 7 random facts:
  1. I hate to shiver. The whole cold thing...not my thing.
  2. When I was a kid I broke my thumb playing soccer.
  3. I've moved 6 times in my life, and lived in 2 different states...a couple of times. MI to IA to MI to IA. ;) (And this is where I am staying!)
  4. My favorite thing in nature is the sky. I am always taking photos of the clouds, sunsets, sunrises. If you'd ask my hubby, he'd say I take way too many photos of it!
  5. I have 8 siblings
  6. I use to love any spinning rides. Since I have had kids, can't take them. I can hardly go on a swing without feeling dizzy!
  7. I'd rather shop for swimsuits than jeans. And no, it's not because I look good in swimsuits, it's just that I cannot seem to find a pair of jeans that really fit me well.

    Here are the 7 people that I am tagging:
