sponsor highlight/give-a-way day.

i know i say this every time, but i really do have the best sponsors out there.

they've allowed me to neglect them these past few weeks (months) as my life has been way hectic.

and yet, they stick around.

y'all are the best.

so, without further ado, our sponsor highlight/give-a-way day shall begin!

**********************************************************************

first up is tweet baby designs:

Hi Ya'll! My name is Ashlee and I am a mama to 6.5 kiddos and wife to one amazing man. I started tweet baby designs in Sept of 2008 as a way to sell things I loved to make. It has since turned into a wonderful addition to our large family.

I specialize in teething accessories for babies and toddlers and amber jewelry for adults with inflammatory issues.

up next is the vintage pearl:

The Vintage Pearl creates unique and meaningful handstamped jewelry and keepsakes. Each piece is handcrafted from start to finish with care in our studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma. We use raw sterling silver, freshwater pearls and birthstone crystals in our creations.

Our jewelry is customized with any names, dates or words of inspiration, and we have several fonts and charm shapes to choose from. We want your piece to be meaningful to you.

Each letter is individually stamped by hand, we do not use a machine, making every piece a true one-of-a-kind!

 and last but certainly not least, our newest sponsor, in his grace:

Hi! My name is Chrissie Grace and I am the author of four books, all published by Northlight, and have been an artist all my life.

After years of selling a variety of items, including mosaics, paintings, and quilted items, I was told by those in the business that I needed to specialize in one area to ever really succeed.

I had started to believe them until I had a revelation one day. As long as I was honoring the word of God, I was already "successful". God would not give me a love and talent for many different types of art if he did not intend for me to use them all!

So, "in His grace..." was born. My husband and I have been blessed with 5 beautiful and healthy children, and I feel compelled to give back in some small way. 25% of all my etsy shop proceeds go directly to CBC Seminole, a local foster and adoption agency.

My hope is that "in His grace..." will help inspire and connect you to the beauty of Christ's love. :)

she is also offering my readers a 20% discount in her shop (till next friday, may 13th).  use code EMILY20.
