Free Printable: 2012 YW Theme: Arise and Shine Forth

My family and I are really involved with out church group.  Both my husband and I spend a good chunk of our free time volunteering to help our local congregation out. I work with the young women in our youth group. Each year all of the youth of the world wide congregation focus on a theme, which is scripturally based.  This year our theme is "Arise and shine forth...".  I decided to make up some printable cards for the young women that I work with.  They are small, about 4 1/4" x 5 1/4", but the perfect size to store in their scriptures.  I used the My Memories Suite software to create the printable.  I really loved how easy it was to create a simple printable using this software.  Don't forget to enter the My Memories Software Giveaway that I'm hosting, you have just a few more days to enter.  You can find the post here.

If you are interested in a digital file for the 2012 Youth Theme, you can find it here.  The file is for an 8.5x11 sheet, with four images per sheet. The file is for non-commercial use only.  Print off as many as you'd like, share them with your friends, but please respect that it is for non-commercial use only.

My Memories Suite Review and Giveaway

I was recently contacted by My Memories Suite, to review their digital scrapbooking software. I was really excited to get to know their product, and to see how it could work for me.  I've always appreciated a well kept memory album; but the cost of supplies, the set up and clean up, and the mess it makes have deterred me from "scrapbooking" in the past. My Memories Suite digital scrapbooking software is rated number one on Amazon, for my full review and a chance to win your own software click here.

Good Food, Guest Bloggers, and a Giveaway

I hate to interrupt all of the Hip for the Holidays fun, but I wanted to fill you in on a couple of things.  

First off, I have really enjoyed celebrating holiday apparel, but sadly I am way behind on my crafted Christmas gift list.  I need a bit of down time to start (and finish) some projects before the big day.  I have decided to take a week off of sewing project posts, and share some of my favorite Holiday treats.  I know that all of you have certain foods, baked goods, and treats that put you in the Holiday spirit.  I thought that it would be appropriate to celebrate, and share, some of my favorite foods with you.  I'd love to know what your favorite recipes and treats are as well, and will be opening up a recipe link party come Monday.  So think of your favorite holiday treats, whip up a batch, post them on your blog, link them to my party, and then share them with your neighbors.

If there is anyone that is interested in taking a day to share their recipe on a guest post, please email me.  I have several of my own recipes that I'd love to share, but I'd be more than happy to have you participate as a guest blogger.

 Bella, from Bella Before and After, is celebrating her 100th follower with a huge giveaway celebration. There are several shops that are offering giveaway items, and my little etsy shop is one of them.  You can enter to win an 8x10 print from my shop, or one of the other fantastic prizes.  Hop on over to her blog and show her some love.

Gift Card Giveaway from CSN Stores

This Giveaway is now closed!

During your travels through blogland you've probably come across several product reviews for products from CSN Stores.  I've seen reviews here and there.  What has really impressed me is the fact that everything that I've read about them (their service and their products) has been positive.

I was thrilled when I was contacted by them about doing a possible review or giveaway.  Like I mentioned earlier I've seen several reviews, but very few giveaways.  Why not let you (my readers) have the chance to try out their products yourself.

So here is the deal, one lucky giveaway participant will win a $35 gift certificate from CSN Stores.  You can use it towards your next CSN Store purchase. So what's it going to be?

Giveaway & New Items

I'd like to introduce you to the newest member of my little Etsy Shop.  Meet Mama and baby Kangaroo. How about we call the little one Joey (original right?)?  This painting was actually done before many of the others in my shop, but it has taken me some time to get it ready for printing and formatted for the web.  My dear friend Natalie (who also has a little one in tote) likes this print and motivated me to add it to the shop.  I hope that you like it too.

If you are interested in winning an 8x10 inch print from my shop just hop on over to Char's giveaway party at Crapivemade.com.  She is having a week full of giveaways in celebration of her 1,000,000th hit.  I'm so excited to be a part of the celebration.  I would feel awful bad if no one participated.  Make me feel loved and stop by.  It is super easy to enter.   Feel free to enter all of the other wonderful giveaways when your there...I just might.  She has new giveaways posted throughout the day.  My giveaway is set to hit the party at 2:00 pm MST, so stop by after then.

My favorite of the Bunch

Check Out just how much you can fit inside.

You might notice that there are a few other new additions to the shop.  I've recently added some of this super cute and useful credit card (or business card) wallets.  I've been giving some of these wallets out to the girls that I work with at church.  They've been telling me just how useful they are.  They are great for carrying student ID's, drivers licenses, girly essentials, and of course a stash of cash.  Check out some of the fun fabric prints.
