Help a Sister Out! {And a Giveaway winner!}

Okay, I am writing a random post because I love my sister.

Some of you have “met” her in blogland, and some of you haven’t.

If you haven’t, you are missing out. 

Isn’t she cute?!

She’s the greatest sister in the world!

Yikes.  Did I really say that?

If you know me, you know I like to poke fun at my sister, Cyndi.  Like how she is “WAY” older than me, and how I am a whole lot physically stronger than her (she’s a wimp), and how I got all the “crafty” genes in the family, etc.

BUT, I’m gonna fight that urge of being the pesky little sister, and tell you that I do not know where I would be without my sister!

She has always looked out for me, encourage me, cheered me on, prayed for me, and helped me out in a million other countless ways.

I adore her.

So when she asked me to mention something on my blog, I was honored to.

 

Here’s the deal:

My sister has a great little blog where she talks about Fashion and Jesus.

She and I are planning on going to Blissdom together in just a couple of weeks. 

However, blog conferences can be really expensive.  The conference pass, gas money, hotel, etc.

Cyndi has the opportunity to win a free conference pass to Blissdom and some extra spending money. I would LOVE to see her win this.

ALL she needs is for people to enter a giveaway on her blog for a $25 American Express gift card by completing a quick survey about vitamins.  The blogger with the most entries wins!

Yep, that’s it!

You guys are always so sweet to me and so supportive of me, and I would just love it if you would share that same goodness with my sister.

Just click HERE, to jump over to her blog and enter the giveaway!  Feel free to share about this giveaway on your facebook page or throw out a tweet if ya want.

 

So come on, Beneath My Heart Readers!  Let’s help my sister out! Smile

 

 

Here’s a big, fat

THANK YOU

in advance!

And now for the Hadley Pottery giveaway winner…

Congratulations to…

15 DIY Valentine Cards for Kids!

February 6, 2012 AT 1:25 am 11 Comments

 

I’ve been browsing around Pinterest and the internet looking for some cute ideas for my boys’ Valentine cards.

My oldest, Jonathan, is in middle school, so I won’t be making Valentine cards for him this year. (sad face)

 

But I can still have fun with Luke, Adam, and Eli!

 

So here are 15 cute Valentine ideas I found.  (Some are kind of boyish…well…because I have all boys!)

Just click on “source” below each picture to see how each was made.
