~One Lucky Blogger Giveaway~

Every once in a while it is nice to throw together a group giveaway to show another fellow blogger a little love and support.  As bloggers, we appreciate ALL of our readers.  But we also know that many of our biggest supporters and most loyal readers are other fellow bloggers. :)  

March is known for the luck of the Irish, and leprechauns, and pots of gold at the ends of rainbows.  And this month could also be a VERY lucky one for one fortunate blogger out there.   Frugal Foodie Mama and 17 of her lovely March sponsors have teamed up to give one blogger the ultimate prize pack...

~$25 Etsy Gift Card~

A blogger can find everything they need on etsy from web design services to cute note cards to send with swap packages.

~$25 Target Gift Card~

What blogger doesn't love Target?? ;)

~$20 Starbucks Gift Card~

To fuel all of those marathon blogging sessions

Blogger Appreciation Giveaway (December Edition)

Okay, I haven't done one of these since August, and I thought it is about time to show all the bloggers out there a little giveaway love! ;)  We all love our readers, but we also know that more often than not our most avid and loyal readers are bloggers themselves.  They promote us (often without us having an ad on their page).  They show us comment love.  They collaborate with us on blog projects and ideas.  They are our bloggy BFF's, right?

Print can be found HERE from Livy Love Designs

So, this giveaway is ALL about the bloggers! (Sorry to all my non-blogger friends.  There is plenty of giveaway love coming your all's way in the very near future, so stay tuned. ;) )

Some of my very own bloggy BFF's (NINE to be exact!) came together to offer TWO very awesome prize packages to two very lucky bloggers out there...

~XL Ad Space for 30 Days & a $20 Blog Design Credit~ from Julie at This Gal Cooks

~$10 Starbucks Gift Card to fuel those blogging sessions~ from Jaime at Mom's Test Kitchen

~A Medium Ad for 30 Days~ from Amber at My Three Bittles

~An 8x10 Print of Your Choice~ from Diana at Livy Love Designs

~200x200 Ad Spot for 30 Days~ from Julie at White Lights on Wednesday

~The Apple of My Eye (In Post) Ad for 30 Days (starts January 1st)~ from Carrie (that's me!) at Frugal Foodie Mama

~A Large Ad Space (350x350) & G+/Skype Chat~ from Brin at Bold Butter Baby

Okay, now for the small print.  You MUST be a blogger.  There is a mandatory entry for each of the Rafflecopters below to prove that you are indeed a blogger.  I will check this mandatory entry for each of the two winners who are randomly chosen. If you skipped over leaving me a link to your blog, then all your entries will be voided.  

This giveaway is open internationally.

Please take notice of the pinning entries in the Rafflecopter.  Along with the tweeting entry, you can pin posts from each of the lovely giveaway sponsors above EVERY day of the giveaway for additional entries! :)

Enter just one of the giveaways or both of the giveaways below! Winners will be notified by email after the giveaway ends, and will have 48 hours to reply.  A new winner(s) will be chosen in the event that the original winner(s) do not reply within the given time frame.

Our Two Lucky Winners of the Blogger Appreciation Giveaway And...

a new ad spot offering!   The demand for my A Bushel and A Peck ad spots has been amazing!  I will have a few A Peck spots opening up in a few days, so please be looking for a little something on those spots later this week. ;)  I have decided that I want to offer something for the blogger or shop owner on a tight budget.  So starting today, I will be offering just FIVE A Pinch sized ads for just $3 each.  A Pinch sized ad is a 150x150 ad located directly below my A Peck sized ads. 

150x150

This new ad spot will also include weekly organic Twitter shout-outs.  I currently have over 600 true Twitter followers (no spam bots!), so that can mean a lot of exposure for your blog or shop with just a "pinch" of Twitter love!  You will also have the option of participating in a group giveaway.  This Blogger Appreciation giveaway was my first ever sponsor group giveaway, and all my sponsors saw growth on their respective social media outlets. :)  We had over 30 bloggers enter!

Blogger Appreciation Giveaway

This is my first month having lovely Amazing Supporter ads on my blog.  As a way to say thank you to all the other bloggers out there, these fabulous ladies have all come together to offer two great prize packages that any blogger would be over the moon to win.  Let's face it. Other bloggers are also usually our readers, our biggest promoters, and many have no problem lending their knowledge, advice, and feedback to other bloggers.  So, this group giveaway is like 2 big ole gold stars (or cookies, if you will) from these bloggers to two lucky bloggers out there.  Please take the time to visit these ladies' blogs and say hello and thank you! 

Say hello to Sara from You.And.Me. Are.We!  Sara is an up and coming blogger who blogs about her life as a new wife, her DIY projects, the random happenings in her life, and her adventures in becoming a nursing student. 

Let me introduce you all to Julie from Jam's Corner! If you are a foodie, this blog should be a MUST FOLLOW for you.  Julie posts delicious recipes throughout the week and hosts a terrific link-up party called Marvelous Mondays weekly.  (Go check it out!)

*Correction- Jam's Corner's XL ad spot is 250x250, not a 250x300.  My bad!

Meet Kassandra from Going Green with the Grizls.  I initially met Kassandra through the Summer Blog Challenge I have been participating in since June. (Pssstttt... Kassandra was the originator and organizer of the Challenge!)  Kassandra's blog is family oriented with a focus on being eco-friendly. She also has started making & selling adorable cloth diapers on Green Grizls.

Say hi to Paige from Eloping Stethoscope.  Now I am actually one of Paige's sponsors, but I asked her if she would like to participate after I purchased one of her nifty custom blog planners.  This blog planner has been a saving grace for me, and I knew it would be a wonderful prize for any blogger looking to keep it all straight.  Not only does Paige create and sell custom blog planners, but she also makes gorgeous and affordable jewelry at her shop.

Let me introduce you to Nicole who blogs over at Me + the Moon.  She also has an etsy shop called Sincerely Kenley where she makes and sells the sweetest headbands and bows for baby girls.  I am seriously in love with them.  Nicole mostly blogs about all the cool mommy and baby finds she comes across.  My favorite so far?  The Pronto Changing Station.  Go check it out.  Trust me. ;)

Meet Janelle from Domestically Seasoned.  She blogs about motherhood, parenting, saving money (who of us couldn't use a little more of that??), and green living.  Did you see her guest post on my blog on how to make Homemade Croutons? ;) Janelle is giving away a Large Ad Space (250x250) on her blog.

Wave hello to my friend Paige from A Paige At A Time (how clever is her blog name??).  Paige is also a crunchy mama.  She blogs about babywearing, natural cleaning, and natural baby remedies.  I am pretty sure one of my favorites is her post on how to make Vanilla Clove Oil for teething.  I will definitely be trying that one with baby girl when she starts cutting teeth soon!

You could be the lucky winner of one of these two great prize packages (see the Rafflecopter below!).  Either package would be any blogger's dream prize.  

You do have to be a blogger to enter.  ;)  The comment on this blog post telling me your blog's URL is the only mandatory entry on the Rafflecopter.  Once you comment, then the rest of the entries on the Rafflecopter will be unlocked. The more ways you connect and follow with these lovely ladies, the more entries you will receive in the giveaway, and the better your chance of being one of the two very lucky winners!

Giveaway ends at 12:01am on August 20th.
