Free tag download and for your consideration...

I'm slightly obsessed with gift wrapping.

At the Blogger Social I recently attended we had a gift exchange and I brought these

boxes full of a "few of my favorite things". 

Thanks to my sister-in-law Erin, she whipped up those custom tags which I've since attached to everything under the sun.

Cute, right?!

Erin has allowed me to share these tags with you (thank you Erin).

Before I do, let me tell you a little bit about her.

You may remember me highlighting her previously as being my very talented blog designer who owns  Designer Blogs. 

She and her staff are highly sought after for designing every aspect of people's blogs.

On a more personal note, 5 years ago, she and her husband, Mike,

were blessed to be able adopt a beautiful boy who is their pride and joy. 

Since then, they have been praying to expand their family and adopt another child.

Adoption is a tricky task these days.  It's not just a waiting game anymore. 

Parents are told they must be extremely proactive and pretty much go find "their child".

They are hoping to adopt again.

If you know anyone who is considering placing a child for adoption please keep

 Mike, Erin and Bryson in mind.

Go here to learn more about them and their story.

To download these tags, right click, save and print.

Enjoy!

Black and Decker Laser Level Giveaway.

Black and Decker must have seen the post I did two years ago where I used a three foot level to measure, mark and tape stripes in my entryway here.

I can just hear their marketing team now...

"That dumb poor girl.  Did she really use that clunker of a level to measure EVERY, SINGLE one of those stripes? Doesn't she know we make a laser level? Let's send her one and let her try it out.  She might go jump off a cliff after she figures out all the time she wasted by not using our laser level."

So this is the Black and Decker Laser Level and it is pretty sweet.  It's got this big suction cup thing (which my husband demonstrated by sticking it to his massive forehead) which sticks right to your wall. 

No messing up the paint.  Cool.

We were trying to line up our growth board charts (by Growing Up Vintage). 
Black and Decker has taken the guess work out of it.  If the red light is flashing then it's not level.

Vanna White here is demonstrating how a simple adjustment will remedy the problem...

Once it turns green, it's level.

This past month I received this beautiful invitation to the 2nd Annual Blogger Social at Alice Lane in the mail.
