Well let me first say THANK YOU to all my followers- I just hit 400 today! Yay!! I'll be setting up another giveaway to celebrate soon, but first I wanted to do a few others (because all of these stores are so awesome!!!) In other news, we decided to head back home today from Colorado- so I'll be in the car the rest of the day! Hope to get a ton of great entries from Blayne's awesome giveaway!
On to the featured giveaway!!
Blayne from HandmadeBlayne is yet another awesome Omaha etsy store owner! Interesting little fact about Blayne- Her real name is Bailey Layne, but she said she likes Blayne for my shop and people have started calling her that too :)

I love her shop! She is so creative!!! Her fabric earrings were what caught my eye at first-
BUT after looking more into her store- I LOVED her handmade stamps!!
She does such amazing work!!
I also love how she has used her stamps- Check out this journal!
To describe her shop- Blayne says "my work definitely has a unique and handmade feel to it-- an obvious "one-of-a-kind" look, and every once in a while a hint of gaudy kitsch. I love it that way. " she is also makes an effort to be eco-friendly! Which I love!
I also know a number of your are just starting with etsy- so here is some advice she has for you!
"Don't take yourself too seriously. I went into it being so serious and ending up heartbroken when people didn't want my items right away. I didn't realize that new skills and new businesses need time to grow organically... they can never be forced or they'll die or you will end up hating what your'e doing! Just enjoy each step of the process and don't get too far ahead of yourself!"
Well I absolutely love Blayne's store- and her advice! So let's get down to this awesome giveaway!!
What could YOU win? Well- Guess what!! Blayne would like to have THREE WINNERS!
One person will win a set of 3 covered button earrings
Another person will win the owl earrings (pink or green)
And lastly- one person will win a handmade stamp

I stumbled across your blog today when someone (sadly don't remember who) liked to your Whimsical Lamp post and I quickly decided that you're worth following. And I also decided that I so have to try to make that lamp!!
So I'm now a follower and would love to be entered to win the cute stamps. My favorite item at Blayne's shop is the Owl and Feathers Journal. Though it was hard to decide.
I love the small stitched feather hand carved stamp. Though all are amazing!

What a gorgeous shop! I love the blue owl earrings. It's incredibly hard to choose a prize, but I think the stamps would be very useful as I need to make a lot of cards this month. Thanks for the chance to win!
I love the shrinky dink project, definitely something I'll have to look into!
If I have to pick one I would have to say the stamps.
