Now on to the game!

Sponsor #1

I'm a 28 year old little lady who runs my little shop. It makes me so happy to be able to create things with my hands and I am constantly inspired and always creating new things. It is what really makes me the happiest person ever! I love drawing tattoo's designs. I have designed all my tattoo art myself, basically a walking canvas and i would not have it any other way. My bike is my main form of transportation and I love showing off what I wear while riding. i love to inspire and encourage other amazing ladies out there to befriend their two wheels and to show everyone how easy it can be to ride in style!

Sponsor #2

Hey! I live in Arkansas and creating things is my passion. I love to knit, crochet, sew, paint and draw. I am selling some of my creations on Etsy, you should check them out! :) I am currently going to school for Accounting, but my real dream is to own a yarn and craft shop!

Sponsor #3

I live in Winnipeg, Canada with my boyfriend Aaron and our 2 cats. I'm in love with the most amazing boy ever, who came here from Australia to take a chance on love. Read our ♥ story here. I spend a lot of my time with my band Larrikin (which Aaron is also a part of), playing guitar, singing and having fun. Aaron and I recently bought our first home together, where we love to spend our time with our 2 kitties: Hobbes and Madison. You'll be seeing a lot of these guys on the blog. They are my chosen family.

Sponsor #4

I started my business in 2010 to help me mix my love of fashion with my passion for helping women see their true self worth. My personal mission is to stamp out low self esteem and false limitations, and to help women see themselves as truly beautiful, not just inside, but outside too! I chose my business name to convey the idea that women are powerful and that we have a voice and a presence that is important. Also, it's a nod to my own plus-sized, fashionable self. I am local to the Seattle/Puget Sound area and would love to work with you in person if you are close, or virtually no matter where you live! Why don't you contact me and we can get started?

Sponsor #5

I'm a 23 year old crafter from Puerto Rico. Sewing, embroidery and crochet are my main passions, but thanks to a very lucky thrifty find I'm getting more and more into analog photography. It all started with a Polaroid Cool Cam and I don't know how far it will go; I already own 2 Polaroid Land Cameras that I love. Every Monday I blog about a different fabric that inspires me in Fabric Crush Monday and the rest of the week is sprinkled with a little bit of everything. I write about crafts, food, photography, thrifty finds, inspiration and daily life. This blog is the outlet for all my creative adventures.

Sponsor #6

I'm a twenty-something art student who loves adventuring through the redwood trees, drinking tea, photography and everything sea foam green colored.

Sponsor #7

I'm a administrative assistant with a Master's degree in Leadership by day, a blogger and business woman by night, and a weekend warrior out to enjoy Mother Nature before heading home to play with some paper and glue. I really love being outdoors, I post about my camping adventures, share local hikes, and I also post about blogging-related topics such as Search Engine Optimization, social media, and Google Analytics.
