Sponsor Showcase: June

Today I'm linking up with Amanda and Tricia for something new they've created. It's called the Sponsor Showcase and it couldn't have come at a more perfect time for me. As you all know, I work two-part time jobs, teach swim lessons, and am taking an online class. Not to mention I'm in the works of launching my own shop! As you can imagine, I'm pretty busy and this month haven't had much time to do the Welcome Wednesday posts like I wanted.

When these fabulous ladies introduced this new idea for the Sponsor Showcase, I was totally on board! I mean what's so hard about promoting things that you LOVE. So today I'm here to share with you a select few of my sponsors and some things I'm loving about their blog or shop. {And remember, nothing below is written by my sponsors, it's just my honest opinion!}

Samantha over at Sami's Shenanigans is a 20-something living in Denver that blogs about everything fashion related. She's also hosting a new link-up: The Weekend Update.

My favorite recent post of hers was the Fashion Hits or Misses. Definitely agree with her when I say that Carrie Underwood looks stunning like always.









Then, there's Breanna who blogs over at My Beautiful Crazy Life. Do you all know this gal? If not, you're seriously missing out. Bree is fabulous and she's been such an inspiration to me, as we're both opening new shops soon.

She posted about her 10 Goals for June, and one of them was to reach 600 followers which she just did this week. Congrats girl and keep up the great work!






Sarah from Coming Unstitched is a fashion blogger who makes me wish I owned everything in my closet. She also writes a fashion column for her local newspaper. I mean what girl do you know that can pull off this neon + nude look and look super sexy? Sarah can!









The fabulous lady behind Confessions of a Graphic Design Student, Kristen, is in fact no longer a student! She's done with design school and oh more talented then ever. She's also going through a little Identity Crisis when it comes to her new blog name.

I feel like I've been bombarding her the past couple days with questions and whatnot, but she's been so patient and helpful. She has helped give me a designers prospective on my new prints! So a huge shout out to Kristen -- thanks for your help :)

First up, is the oh-so-amazing Tookies. You all had your chance to win a $50 shop credit here and a 15% coupon code (FRAMEDFROSTING) to order some for youself! I too have been loving Tookies lately and am absolutely in love with the Smores bar. If you're a smores lover and haven't tried this, you are truly missing out.

I've also been known to enjoy the Classy Coconut jar cakes. Go on over, check out the shop, and be sure not to drool all over yourself. The goodies are THAT tasty :)



Another giveaway you all had a chance to enter was for some fabulous Lisa Leonard Designs jewelry. Every time I look through her website, it seems that she's adding more and more! In fact, on Tuesday she launched her summer line which is filled with gorgeous necklaces. Like this Love is my Anchor necklace and matching bracelet shown below. I'm sure I'll be snatching one of these up here soon!

The new 2012-2013 Erin Condren planners launched yesterday and I made sure to purchase myself one! I've got one busy busy schedule and I really loved the idea of staying organized with such a fabulous planner. They are a bit on the pricey side, but I'm hoping those laminated tabs and zipper pouch make it well worth it :) I also LOVE how the days are separated into morning, noon, and night.


Another gal you should ALL know is the fabulous Heather from Just Lovely. This girl has TWO shops of her own and runs a blog. I seriously don't know how she does it!

Oh, and did I mention she does a monthly beauty subscription too? I cancelled my Birchbox last month and when I came across her Love Club, I just had to sign up! You are guaranteed a Just Lovely hair acessory plus some other fabulous goodies for only $12/month. You also get reward points for signing up newbies, so be sure to tell her I sent you!

Last, but certainly not least is Mandee from Cloud Nine Designz. This girl has the Ultimate ad space, which appears at the bottom of all blog posts, meaning she gets some serious traffic! Which is a good thing because her shop is gorgeous.

She makes some simple, yet beautiful handmade jewelry. She has also started making a few coasters like these zebra print ones. Here are just a select few of my personal favorites...
