You can thank me in the comments for this giveaway ;-)
During my search for fun eclectic thingies for my family photo wall, I came
across amye123.
Me lovey lovey lovey.
I made a purchase and you know me, I had to ask if she would
like to host a giveaway.
And as you can figure by the post she said "HECK NO",
psych.
I kid, she was SO game.
Here is a little somthin' about Amy {we both conquer Amy's rock}.
{excerpts, read full interview here}
Hello! My name is Amy of amye123. I live in Mauldin, SC with my 5 year old son, Harper. I love light, bright colors, front porches, daisies, old barns, paint on my hands and time with Harper.
Describe a "typical day"~
I'm not sure I've ever had a typical day. I am an awful grouch in the mornings. Harper usually wakes me with the "Good Morning Song". Then I stumble to the coffee maker and wonder why it hates me. (Everything seems so much more difficult in the morning.) Next, I make breakfast and Harper and I shake off our sleepy cobwebs. Harp and I usually spend our mornings together so my work day doesn't officially begin until after lunch when he takes a nap. I then check my convos, paint, take pictures, package... whatever is called for that day.
What do you want life to look like in a year~
In a year... I hope I'm happy. I hope Harper is happy and healthy. I hope my family is strong. I really hope I can hire an assistant because packaging tape is my mortal enemy. I would like to be be brave enough to introduce some of my illustrations. An awesome barn for a studio wouldn't suck. Other than that, life is pretty good and I don't want to be greedy with my wishes.
My package arrived yesterday, and it took every ounce of my patience not to tear
into it the minute it landed on my front porch.
I just now finished opening it, oh it was Christmas in January.
I plan on posting more this week with pictures of my wall.
But Amy's comment above about packaging tape CRACKED me up, since
my box had about enough to safely package my whole house up and ship to India in one piece.

My enemy would have to be BEES! Wasps, hornets, yellow jackets...anything that buzzes and can sting me I HATE! When someone tells me "they're more scared of you than you are of them" I want to scream. I can't sting them and make them swell up like a little puffer fish! Phew. THanks for letting me get that off my chest...and for the awesome giveaway!:-)

My mortal enemy has to be how my dog steals baby socks so I can hardly ever find matching pairs when getting my babies dressed! So annoying!
The secret garden ornate frame is fantastic and would be the perfect addition to my little girls' room.
Spiders are my mortal enemy. I'm not looking forward to spring for that reason.

My mortal enemy? Um...the time that I never have enough of. ;)
I'm a teacher, so my mortal enemy is project due dates...I've never heard so many excuses!
My goodness, you're right. Its impossible to pick just ONE favorite! Loving the Happy Yellow Flower Bowl and the Happy Frame Collection. Also the Spring Garden, Madeline and Happy Wall frame collections are soooo cute!
My mortal enemy (its hard to choose just one of those too, actually) would have to be cats. I know its a fave pet of many, but the freak me out and the thought of them walking around in their litter boxes is just gross!
I just found your blog (thank you, Emily Anderson). LOVE IT! ANd I love this Etsy shop as well. I think my fav. thing there is the tangerine owl-- he's so fun.:)

Love the Infinity Frame.
I'd have to agree with Emily who said the alarm clock. Although I'm getting really good at ignoring it...which isn't such a good thing.
My mortal enemies are roaches. Not any roaches, specifically the ones that live in FL. They are HUGE they fly, and they always sneak their little way in! yuck!
My favorite item is the happy wall frame collection!
I loved absolutely everything! The colors are all wonderful! The clocks are adorable :)
I love the Sophia candlestick collection! Just gorgeous!!

My mortal enemy? You know this. LIZARDS! P.S. There was one in my mail box the other day and my hands was 6 inches from it. Oh, lizards and sleep deprivation. xo
HOLY SMOKES!!! Her stuff is FAB!! I love it! I think my favorite is the Infinity Frame.
Mortal enemy.....spiders and construction zones!!
I love her shop, I added it to my favs! I picked her Juliette frame collection.
Mortal enemy -- the dirty dishes!
I really love the Happy Yellow Flower Bowl. It is so cute and would be wonderful in my kitchen this summer. So pretty and simplistic.
The wall garden flowers are super sweet as well. Such cute items on her site.
I love the Spring Garden frame collection!
My mortal enemy? Dust! As soon as I get rid of it, it comes right back! GRRRRR!
Love everything in Amy's shop, but really adore the Happy Wall frame collection. You can simply be nothing but happy looking at those bright colors!
My mortal enemy would definitely be my "junk" drawer. It's only a drawer but seems to be a black whole. I put things there so that I can easily find them when needed; however, I usually end up flustered and frustrated because everything is a tangled mess! Arrr, lol!
love the gypsy circus collection for the kids room. id put pictures of them making funny faces in them. lol.
my mortal enemy would be my husbands "piles" that he leaves EVERYWHERE around the house. a shirt here, shoes there, computer over there, work papers... URGH! lol
