Today, I have a giveaway from one of my very favorite places to shop for kid's clothes, My Little Clothesline.  I have blogged about My Little Clothesline before.  They sell gently used kids clothes at a phenomenal discount.  They have AMAZING Bargain Boxes where you get 5 pieces of clothing for $5 or 4 pieces in the bigger sizes.  They have clothes my kids enjoy too like Super Mario shirts for the boys and Hello Kitty jammies for Avery all at low prices!  I have 3 kids, I buy a lot of clothes and I need a good deal.  This is a good deal.  Also, Lauri so extremely pleasant to work with!  She is a super kind soul and I'm so glad that through her store, I've gotten to know her a little bit.

What's that?  You want to see a picture of Avery in a bunch of her My Little Clothesline clothes?  Oh, you don't?  Well, too bad, I made a collage.  ;)

And I buy the boys clothes from there too.  

Lauri so graciously gave me a $20 gift certificate to the store to giveaway to one of you lucky readers!  You can make $20 go a very long way at My Little Clothesline!

Tonight's giveaway is brought to us by my friends at Whisker Graphics!  They are offering up a fabulous Holiday Kit and Kaboodle for you to make your own awesome crafts!  Whisker Graphics makes Divine Twine, Bitty Bags, Petite Stickys, and much more.  You can get the items to do your holiday wrapping and some crafts!  I worked for Whisker Graphics for a very long time and I promise you they have amazing quality items.  They are also some of the nicest people in the craft industry.

I made a sample of what you could do if you won a Kit and Kaboodle.  I did add two kinds of extra Divine Twine but other than that, everything else comes with the kit.  I braided Cherry, Green Apple, and Holiday Divine Twine into handles for my bag.  I punched holes in the bag that I reinforced with Petite Stickys.  I added a Little Bitty Bag and a Colored Tag so you could write the person's name on the tag and include a small card and greeting inside the Little Bitty Bag.  This is a cute and extra special way to present a gift.

My sweet friend Rachel is offering up a $40 gift certificate to her Close to My Heart site.  (This is only good through Rachel.)  Holy smokes, if you haven't ordered from CTMH in a while, now is the time!  The stamps are sooooo cute right now.  And you know how much I love cute stamps!  I've recently ordered some cutesy stamps for cards and they have a bunch of fabulous set for Pocket Scrapbooking as well.  Speaking of which, they have their own pocket scrapbook line called Picture My Life which is super cute.  I think I might do my middle son's baby book using their Babycakes line.  And let's not forget about the fabulous organizers, ink pads, and embellishments.  I'm rather jealous of whoever wins this giveaway because I have A LOT on my CTMH wish list.  Also, if you know me, you know that I only work with the NICEST people around and you will not find a nicer person than Rachel.  She is so sweet and wonderful.  If you don't have a CTMH consultant, check out Rachel and you will not be disappointed!

I made a sample with a Close to My Heart set that I'm in love with called Cuddly Salutations.  It's a hostess exclusive so you have to host a party to be able to get this set.  I got a TON of stuff when I hosted a party!  I made a thank you card because I'm so thankful for my blog and my readers.  The paper is Dear Lizzy and I used some Target washi tape.

I also special ordered an apron to giveaway.  This is a CHILD SIZED fox apron and it's ridiculously cute.  I kind of wish I had gotten one for Avery too but I didn't.  This one is for you.  (Lucky ducks!)  This will fit kids up to about 7 years old (Length 17.5 inches, width 13.5 inches, neck band is 16.5 inches with a velcro closure.)

This next giveaway is from Jenny Bunny Creations.  When I first started this blog, it was my intention to review handmade items along with sharing my creations.  I've since ventured away from that.  Hmmm, I think I need to go back.  One of the first buyers I bought from on Etsy was Jenny Bunny Creations.  We became friends.  We've known each other for seven years because of Etsy!

Jenny creates beautiful jewelry and gorgeous crocheted items.  This month 50% of all her jewelry sales are going towards a family whose daughter Jaylee was born at 29 weeks and needs to stay in the hospital.  Jenny's daughter was also born at 29 weeks so she wants to help others the way she was helped.  I have A LOT of Jenny Bunny jewelry and it is GORGEOUS!  The quality is superior to anything you'd buy at a store.  I still have all my pieces after 7 years and they look like they did the day I bought them.  I haven't gotten any crocheted items yet but I know that they will be spectacular too!

This giveaway is for a fun pink cowl scarf.  It is 14 inches tall and 24 inches around but can stretch.  It is made of acrylic yarn.  It's perfect for winter!  She has more of these cowls in the store that would be perfect for gifts!

Our next giveaway is funded by me.  I bought these items and I will ship them to the winner.  Unravel is a very important organization to me.  It was founded by my friend Libby Kranz to spread awareness and raise funding for pediatric cancer in honor of her daughter Jennifer (JLK) who passed away from a brain tumor.  If you read my blog during September, you'll know that this year we joined in their Fluttering Campaign which raised $158,000.  And this was only the first year.  Libby inspires me everyday because her heart knows no bounds.  She can achieve so much and she will keep her promise to JLK that she would help other kids with cancer.  The prize pack includes 1 Unravel Bumper Sticker, 1 Unravel Bracelet, 1 Unravel Brochure, and a $5 donation to Unravel made in your name.

Huge thank you to the Unravel office crew who went out of their way while they are still building their store to find these items and sell them to me!  You guys rock!!!
