Sponsor

Every month I work hard to produce lots of quality posts that are full of unique ideas and informative tutorials. I love what I do and wouldn’t trade it for the world.

As this blog continues to grow though, so do the costs of running a blog. Hosting and maintaining a blog is not free.

If I didn’t have sponsors I would be severely in the red each month just for basic blog hosting fees and the like. Money I receive from my amazing sponsors does not give me “fun spending money”. It literally pays to keep the blog online.

I would not be able to afford to run this blog if it weren’t for my generous sponsors. Without sponsors I simply could not afford to pay all the overhead that a blog entails.

Having said that, I need to take a moment to thank each of my sponsors for keeping this blog up and running. In addition to being some of the best sponsors online, they are all excellent companies with great products. Most have some type of great deal or promotion going on right now.

Hey guys! I hope you had a great weekend! I’ve got an exciting giveaway for you this week.

As you probably know, I love my Silhouette machine. If it were a little softer, I’d probably even cuddle with it at night. I love doing Silhouette giveaways! I am such a huge fan of this machine and I love the idea that one of you can win one for yourself.

Before I get to the giveaway though, I want to show you a few cool heat transfer projects I made this weekend with my Silhouette CAMEO & also tell you about a great promotion Silhouette has going on right now.

From now through Tuesday, April 10th you can purchase a CAMEO & Heat Transfer BUNDLE for $269.99 (a whopping $70 savings!). All Heat Transfer Material is also 40% off!

The Heat Transfer kit comes with all these goodies in it:

Check out these fun heat transfer projects I made this weekend. I ended up making 4 projects because I couldn’t decide on just one!

Each of my children got a new shirt!

Aren’t they so cute? {The shirts, not the kids. Okay, ya, the kids are cute too!}

I also wanted to create something that wasn’t just a basic t-shirt to show you guys how much this little machine really can make, so I whipped up these bags for my kids to carry their piano music in.

Both kids take piano lessons each week and desperately needed a bag to carry all the books in (they each have 4 piano books plus a lesson plan book). I purchased the canvas bags at Hobby Lobby then used images from the Silhouette Store to iron onto the bags.

Kinsey’s bag required the most work but was still easy to make. All you do is cut out your pieces in the appropriate colored heat transfer material, then iron on one layer at a time.

I really like finding ways to layer the heat transfer to create an image with multiple colors.

The body of the unicorn was actually done in a white glitter heat transfer material, which does not come in the basic kit mentioned above. Isn’t it so cool?!

Using the Heat Transfer Material is so easy! All you do is cut out your images using your Silhouette CAMEO (make sure to mirror your image before cutting b/c you are cutting on the reverse side of the material).

Then you lay your image on whatever surface you are adhering it to. In this case I’m applying it to a cute ruffle shirt I found at Target.

Next you cover the heat transfer material with a towel or fabric and iron it for several seconds.

When you are done ironing, peel the plastic backing off the heat transfer. Voila. You are done!

Because of a user error (ie I’m an idiot!) I ruined part of Travis’s drum set heat transfer. I didn’t want to waste almost an entire sheet of heat transfer so I made a small “patch” to fix the ruined section. After ironing it on top of the other image you can’t even tell it’s patched.

The moral of the story? If you screw up, it’s okay to patch it instead of throwing away an entire sheet of heat transfer material.

I’ve also made a few other heat transfer projects using my CAMEO (click on the image to see the original post):

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Scotts® for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

Remember that post I made last week about Scotts Snap Spreader System?

Well guess what!  They gave me one to try out!  And let me tell you, it is the bomb-diggity-dawg squared.

Like I said before, I’m already partial to the Scotts brand and have been using a puny hand crank spreader for four years now.  It was a little time-consuming, but it got the job done.

I was excited to test-drive this bad boy to see how it compared to the little hand-held spreader.

This new Scotts® Snap® Spreader System really couldn’t be any easier to operate if they tried.  You plop the bag of fertilizer onto the Spreader System…

…and then lock it into place.  You are now rearing and ready to go.

Ben got to be the first to try out this bad-boy, and oh my word.  Not only does it spread fertilizer onto the yard like a dream machine,…

 
Besides just looking hotter using the Spreader, the Spreader itself is pretty sweet too.

What is usually a 45 min to an hour job of spreading fertilizer onto the yard with the hand-cranked thing took us 15 minutes TOPS {front and back yard} with the new Snap Spreader System.

It’s also pretty sweet because it actually puts out the exact amount of fertilizer onto your yard. Usually I just kinda throw the fertilizer around and give it the ol’ eyeball technique.  This Spreader actually measures for you.

I was kinda worried I’d run out of fertilizer before I finished the yard, but I have at least 3/4 the bag left.  Totally goes much further than I thought it would.

I saw this system for $30 at the big orange hardware store, but the big blue one had it for $50!  So shop around and make sure you get the best price.

The Scotts® Snap® Spreader System definitely takes the mess and guess work out of lawn care, is so easy to use, and folds up small for easy storage.  I also love that the Snap Pac self-seals upon removal for even less mess!

And for the record, promotional post aside, I HONESTLY would have bought one of these with or without the offer from Scotts to do a little review on my blog.  The second I saw it I said I wanted one, and then I just got extra lucky when Scotts actually offered to give me one to try out.  And that, my friends, is a true story.

Don’t forget about the giveaway I’ve got going on right now for a chance to win one of your very own.  To enter the giveaway CLICK HERE.
