You have until next Thursday at midnight to link up your URL (web address) below.  Voting will start next Friday after all the time has been allotted for you to link up to the challenge!

If you are or aren't participating by entering a project, we'd LOVE for you to help get the word out about the Pinterest Challenge.  Facebook about it, tweet, stomp, yell, or drag people to the blog by pinning like crazy.  We NEED you to make this a huge success.  If you do have a blog, please grab a button to proudly display:

Thanks for entering, ladies! So many of you are last minute crafters (like me) – I was concerned no one would enter. Silly me.

Remember, the winner receives these prizes:

This bag from my Better Life Bag collection (The Alicia)... in the fabrics of your choice!

This amazing House Rules print in your size choice from Peace, Love, Etsy.

AND this beautiful necklace (personalized up to three discs) from Metal Stamped Memories.

pinterest challenge sponsor: Peace, Love, Etsy

I'd like to highlight a Pinterest Challenge Sponsor today that I think you all will LOVE: Peace, Love, Etsy.  

First of all, how cute is her ETSY name?  And her shop is just as sweet.  She is a digital designer, wife to her high school sweetheart, mother of 2 boys, and a daughter of the King.  Her shop is full of custom designed quotes, sayings, and scriptures to add to the walls of your home. 

Here is one of my favorite quotes in her shop:

A "silent listener" in every conversation.  Whew.  That makes me rethink some of the "venting sessions" I recently had with my husband.  Not sure I would have done that had I remembered Jesus is listening and is THERE with us.  Maybe having this quote on my wall would have done the trick.

But her shop name is based off these cute prints:

Lots of "Peace, Love, ......." prints.  One to suit every hobby.  So cute.

The print she is giving away to the winner of the Home Decor Pinterest Challenge Category is this one:

Don't you just love it?  What amazing house rules to live by.  I'm sure she'd customize the colors for you too - you know, to match your decor.  In fact, she can customize or create a new quote or Bible verse for a small fee of $5!  Totally worth it.

Thanks Holly!
