To start it all off...
27. ...Who could get this party started better than ElleBows and More!? Are you in love with butterflies? I know I am! And what little girl doesn't love them?

Well, so you don't run into that problem, Suzie from Suzie's Armoire has offered a beautifully unique bookmark for you! There are SO many cute ones to choose from! Butterflies, dolphins, cats, dinosaurs, frogs... The list goes on! It was hard for me to chose one to picture here but I have a thing for frogs so that's what you see!

Write love letters much?...
29. This is quite a step up from back in the say when you wrote "do you like me, (picture of a "circle") YES or NO"... But you're not required to use this stationary just for love letters, although it's so pretty, that's what I'd use them for. Wendy's Whimsical Designs is giving away one of these BEAUTIFUL monogrammed personalized stationary sets! They're made with Martha Stewart monogram stamps and Stampin up paper and cardstock. Her shop has SO much cute stuff I couldn't stop looking around!... Oh how I wish I was this crafty! But you--You can pretend to be with these!

Moving right along to something I treasure...
33. Dark Wolf Trading Co. creates the most beautiful handmade pieces of art. I found @darkwolftrading through Twitter and fell in love. One thing I really love is their leather bound journals and books. If you're a sketcher, or a big writer like I am--Or a big blogger like I've become you'll probably appreciate this like I do. I LOVE to jot down my thoughts when I'm on the go. Sure, I have a voice recorder, and an iPhone where I can electronically jot down my thoughts, but there's something beautiful about printing it in my own hand writing, and being able to flip through it later. Having a special place for those thoughts, or dreams, or whatever you choose, is important in my book.This is a handmade leather bound journal featuring a wraparound thong. The leather used is suede deerskin. The journal is made up of four sets of 12 pages each for a total of 48 usable pages. The pages measure 5.5" x 8.5" and, when closed, the journal measures about 6" x 10". Paper used is plain white paper.

I about flipped out when I found out about this next sponsor too!
34. It all started when I saw @ModMomME on Twitter. Kristen from Mod MomMe has SO many adorable things for a mod mom, but the best thing about it is there's lots of stuff for future mama's too! Like this Diaper bag Keychain for example! These adorable bags are Kristen's own creation and are exclusively at mod momME. As a mother of 2 little ones still in diapers, she says this bag is a must have accessory. She's run into problems before at the doctor's office--Not being able to throw away diapers there! She's been required to place the dirty diaper in a bag and take it home to dispose of it. This means you will have to depend on the doctor's office to supply you with a plastic bag or you will have to come prepared with them yourself. Dispose a Diaper Bag © key chains are very practical, convenient, and stylish too.
BUT what do I see when I see this? I poop bag for Snoop! When I'm walking him I'm always trying to figure out where to put the plastic bags I pick up his poop with... These cute things hold about 15 small plastic trash bags and they're easy to hook on a dog leash too!
So there you have it... Good for dog parents and human parents too!
She has TONS of colors to choose from and is open to your own idea for fabric too! Check out her site and let me know which one you'd want! The winner gets their choice! Check out her cute blog too!
--Commenter #543 wins! But remember to check out the rules below to know how to play! (If we fly past the winner in this contest too, there's another chance to win one of these here).
You know the saying.. "If mommy ain't happy..."35. The same concept rings true to this sign which caught my eye. This is by Rebekah from Little Love Letters. Who makes all of these cute signs herself. What mom doesn't deserve this sign? It measures 8x8 and is hung with several lines of hemp cord. It's painted black with beige vinyl lettering and sanded on the edges for a distressed look. A matte finish is applied to the board after paint and lettering is applied, to ensure longevity.
Not a mom yet? Don't worry! I've got something up my sleeve for you...
This adorable family sign! 10x10 sign featuring the "definition" of family. I came up with these definitions with a little help from friends, family and my little girl. I really think they are universal! This sign can be custom-painted to match your decor! The sample is hung with matching ribbon, although I can also hang it with raffia or a saw tooth hanger - your choice. The winner can pick which one they want, or if they want just the vinyl "family" saying for the wall, that works too!So check out her site and see what else you like and let me know!

Another one of my favorites...
36. You know how I love purses! So when Liz from Peanut Babies and LovingMom2Boys told me that she makes tote bags I got all excited again! Yea... I know you ladies like these things too! And I especially love things that work for Future Mama's too... Which this does! Diaper bag... Sure... But it also looks like a beach bag, and cute purse too! This is a fun and functional medium tote bag. Made with only light interfacing this is the perfect bag for just about anywhere.Constructed of 100%, using fabric from Amy Butler's Daisy Chain collection. The bag measures 15" wide, 10 1/2" tall, and 4" deep, with 25" handles (11" drop). Includes a large interior pocket. The super soft construction of this bag makes it perfect not only for every day use, but is great for the traveler as well. Folded up it is perfect for packing in a suitcase without using a lot of precious space.
The cool thing is she says she'll custom make it for you! The winner will be able to select from a variety of fabrics, and the bag will be made to order. Sweet, no?! So check out her site and let me know what you like!
