CLOSED Product Review and Giveaway: Whimsy Wildflower


Congratulations to lucky #5, Lisa Sturgis, chosen by Random.org! Thanks to everyone for participating!

Happy Sunday! It's time to announce another giveaway and this one is courtesy of the ever so sweet Amanda of Whimsy Wildflower :) Amanda has graciously donated two adorable pieces from her shop as well as a $10 gift certificate (information about these items and how to enter is below) AND a 20% discount code to use during the giveaway, how awesome is that? If you haven't had a chance to meet Amanda or visit her shop, here's a bit about her:

"My name is Amanda. I am a SAHM. My husband and my girls are my world! I have recently found inspiration for many fun things. I would have never imagined that sewing and crafts would become my favorite hobby. We never know what we are capable of doing until we find inspiration and push ourselves to do things we never thought possible. Who knew I could sew or paint or use my imagination??? Not me! =) My girls are definitely my inspiration and my God is the one who makes it all happen! So here are some of my fun, funky, whimsy creations! If you are not looking for perfection, but you are looking for creativity with lots of TLC you have come to the right place. I love using lots of color, texture, layers, and tons of different fabrics and materials. Some of my materials are bought new, but I also combine them with materials I find around my house. I love to upcycle and see new things created from other things that were no longer needed. I hope you enjoy my creations!"

Isn't she great? A true artist, I just love her sense of style and creativity! And YOU have the chance to win these two wonderful creations AND a $10 gift certificate to her shop!

{Chalkboard Wood Stamp}

We believe in adding a little details would make a big difference. We’ve always wanted something better, something special for the little one =) To bring the joy & to think of the smiles from their faces when they received the gifts that were made from us, all the hard work pays off instantly~

{Premium Exotic Handmade Wood Stamp}

We find such joy to create something fun & practical for everyday use, a little something to cheer up a stressful day, or even something educational to let the children learn while they play."

And the lucky winner of the Blush Envy Gift Certificate is...

Thanks to everyone for another successful and fun review and giveaway! As always I've used Random.org to select the lucky winner and guess what? It chose number one!!!

So a huge CONGRATULATIONS to Kasandra Jenne for winning the $20 Blush Envy gift certificate! Kasandra, I'll be emailing soon!

CLOSED: Product Review and Giveaway: Blush Envy

This giveaway is now closed, the winner will be announced soon.....

inspired by romance, daydreams, and blush envy....

Oh my gosh, I just have to tell you about Blush Envy! Blush Envy is an ever growing line of accessories for you and your home, inspired by romance, daydreams, vintage, modern, and all things feminine lovely. I am in LOVE with my Blush Envy ring (shown above) and know you will just love them too! And guess what? The gals at Blush Envy are graciously giving away a $20 gift certificate to one lucky winner! How cool is that?

Blush Envy is lovingly driven by Brandy and her right arm, Cara. Here's a bit about them, I love their story!

My name is Brandy, and I'm the daydreamer behind Blush Envy. Each piece is a part of my heart and soul, made from scratch by my hands. Simple influences from my personal life and loves are reflected throughout each line. I am an avid lover of vintage, eclectic style, combined with modern lines and aesthetics. I adore flowers, and gardening, have an ever increasing infatuation with peeling paint, and general time worn patina that tells a story.
My first serious attempt at anything artistic was at about twelve years old, when I decided my Barbie needed ball gowns. I hand sewed a yellow floor length gown with sweetheart neckline and a bubble over skirt. So what if you couldn't get it off, why would she want to wear anything else? I've been designing ever since and had work in stores all over the U.S., as well as to a customer base all over the world. I have worked in every medium I could get my hands on, but I still have an enormous list of things I can't wait to try. What an honor to be able to do the thing in life that makes you really tick! I live in S.W. Florida with my darling husband, three impetuous dogs, and several ridiculous sillies of the feline persuasion.
..........................................................................................................................................................

Now, I'd really like to introduce you to my right arm, Cara! Cara has been with me for only a few short months, and already I don't know what I'd do without her. I had her do a little write up abut herself, but she didn't talk herself up enough. So I'll do it for her! Cara is a wife and a mother, caretaker of doggies divine, and a teacher with a gigantic heart. She was also a huge fan of Blush Envy, which is how we met. A while back, I'd started getting these emails from this sweet fan asking if I'd ever thought of doing this, or that, or how could she help. What she didn't know, was that I'd been praying for the perfect helper for a really long time. In spite of that, it took me a while to connect the dots. But once I did, Cara was thrilled to come on board, and she's been assisting me with all the stuff that needs to get done.

Aren't these girls the sweetest?! I absolutely LOVE the Blush Envy line and you will too!
