Shutterfly is Helping With My Mission Impossible

I usually order my photos and cards online from several different places, but I have yet to try Shutterfly.  This year I am hoping to change that!  I have been checking out all their beautiful cards for our Christmas cards and they have a great selection. 

This Snow Flurries Cocoa one is one of my favorites.  But so is this O Holy Night one.  And then there is the Kaleidoscope Stars one.  I am going to have a hard time picking which one I want to use this year!  First I guess I need to get the kiddos together for a picture. That might be even harder than choosing my card! Remember my mission impossible?  I may just have to use that picture even though the kids aren't in their nice clothes!

Shutterfly also has photo calenders, mugs, and books which would all make great gifts!  I've had a photo calender before and loved it, so I might have to look into those for some Christmas gifts this year.

They also have great birth announcement cards and birthday card.

Shutterfly is going to give me 50 FREE holiday cards for sharing this with you.  Check out all the details here: http://bit.ly/sfly2010

My Newest Toy

Last week, my newest toy arrived at our front door.  I got a great deal on Amazon's deal of the day and to make it an even better deal, I got it FREE using my Swagbucks!

I have been using contact paper to laminate things, but using a laminator makes it go so much faster!  And I have tons of school stuff to laminate, so this will save me lots of time. 
If you want to find out how to get free stuff with Swagbucks, check out this post I wrote a while back and start Swagging today!

Bloem and Grow - Review and Discount Code!!

I recently discovered a small business online called Bloem and Grow that offers a variety of different products, most of which can be personalized to your liking! I immediately fell in love with all the cute necklaces!



When Kate, the owner, offered to send me one of her photo scrabble tile necklaces to review, I was so excited! I emailed her a photo of my hubby and this is what she created for me:

(Sorry I tried to get a pic of me with it on, but hubby wasn't around and my large belly wouldn't let me get close enough to the mirror for a nice close up to see the picture!)

I love it and think it is so fun to wear! I also plan to send her another picture of my kiddos after our newest is born to have her make another tile to add to my necklace.

I asked Kate to tell me a little more about herself so we could get to know her better and here is what she had to say:

I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 10 years now and we have 2 energetic kids, Emmah (7) and Jake (5). No pets, but with these two we don't need them! I got started with a love for crafting and a desire to use this skill as part of my job! I started scrapbooking over 15 years ago and it totally snowballed from there. I love making things for people that are unique and special. I love my photo scrabble tile necklaces because they are so great for so many people. And there are just so many options and so many ways to personalize them.

Kate also offers other cute products like word blocks, photo holders, clothes pins, magnet boards, other jewelry and more!

Kate has many more pictures on her site and facebook page, so be sure to head over to them and check them all out!

I think all her prices are very reasonable, especially for being personalized! If you would like to purchase any of her adorable stuff, head over to her site, Bloem and Grow. And Kate has graciously offered a discount code to all my lucky readers! Just mention the code "Michelle" when ordering and she will give you 15% off your order! So what are you waiting for? Head over and take advantage of this great offer to get yourself some cute stuff!

Bloem and Grow sent me this necklace for free to review. I was not paid for this review and I get to keep the necklace. All opinions expressed are mine!

Do You Use Swagbucks?

Have you ever heard of Swagbucks? I have been using Swagbucks for a while now and have been earning a lot of free stuff, just for using my computer! It is a search engine (similar to Google) that randomly rewards you with Swagbucks for using it. They have a Swag store with tons of items and gift cards that you can purchase with your swagbucks. One of the gift cards is a $5 Amazon cards and this is what I have found to be the best value, so that is what I always purchase when I get enough (450) saved up. I usually earn enough to purchase at least 2 of these a month! That's $10 free that I can use for anything on Amazon! Here are just a few of the things I have purchase with them so far:

It is great for getting "fun" stuff for the kids for school or gifts!

The easiest way to earn swagbucks is by using their toolbar. You just have to down load it and it will appear at the top of your internet screen. Then when you need to search for something, use it and you may randomly be awarded swagbucks in amounts anywhere from 5-50! I also use it for getting to facebook, email, etc instead of having them on my favorites list or typing in the whole address. I just type facebook and it searches facebook sites and then I just have to click on the one I want. It's really only one extra step and the prizes have been worth it! You can also go to their homepage and search from there or check out their other ways to earn, their blog, twitter, or facebook page for codes to enter and earn swagbucks.

If you want to sign up, and you use my referral link, I will also earn some swagbucks, so I would love it if you would! Also, for anyone who creates a new Swagbucks account before midnight on August 15th,you will get an extra 40 swagbucks if you enter the code BackToSchool. You always get 30 when signing up, so that will be a total of 70!

So what are you waiting for?!? Start Swagging and earning some great prizes!!!
