Happy Birthday Sheepish! + A Giveaway for You

(Yes the balloons are pieces of yarn...) ;-)
August is a big birthday month around here....three birthdays to be exact!! 

- Today is the day I opened my Etsy shop

- August 4th is when I started blogging!

- August 17th is my 21st birthday! ;-)

I can't believe it has already been a year since I started my little crafty business. I never would've imagined  all of the amazing things I have experienced this year. I have grown more confident in my craft, creativity, writing, and I am on my way to gaining more self-confidence. You have no idea what your support means to me. (Uh oh...I'm getting a little teary over here...)

For being so special, I'm having a giveaway throughout the entire month of August! There will be three winners....

Two readers will win....



A crochet bow pin, in the color of their choice, and 15% off anything in the shop! (Discount expires Dec. 31)

One lucky reader will win...



A crochet tea cup, in the color of their choice, and 15% off anything in the shop! (Discount expires Dec. 31)

Here's how you can enter:

- Follow this blog via Google Friend Connect (found on the right sidebar) or via Bloglovin (the Bloglovin button is also on the right sidebar). Next, leave a comment with your name and email. This entry is mandatory and must be done for your additional entries to count. If you want to follow through both GFC and Bloglovin, leave two separate comments. 

More chances to win:

- Follow me on twitter, @sheepishknit. Leave a comment below with your name, email, and twitter username.
- Tweet about this giveaway using the following phrase and leave a comment below with your name, email, and link to the tweet:

  * Enter the @sheepishknit giveaway in celebration of her shop and blog's first birthday! http://bit.ly/rnOQJb

- Like Sheepish Knitting & Crochet on Facebook and leave a comment below with your name and email.
- Share this giveaway on Tumblr, your blog, smoke signal, morse code...ok maybe not the last two, but you get the idea. Just leave a comment below with the link, your name and email!

***Bonus! If you purchase something from my shop you get 10 entries in the giveaway! Just let me know what you purchased and then leave 10 comments with your name and email!***

The winner will be selected through a random number generator. The giveaway ends on August 31 and I will announce the winner on September 2.

Ok everyone, have fun and spread the word! 

Thank you so so so so so SO much for inspiring me and pushing me to be better everyday. You rock.
