Meet Amanda and Sandi

Amanda from CuteNCurlyBowtique and Sandi from Handmade By Sandi are co-sponsoring the sneak attack today at 6pm Etsy time (EDT).

Sandi has sponsored many time, but today is Amanda's first time sponsoring and she is so excited!

I asked Amanda, what prompted her to join this team:

I joined the Handmade Movement after reading someone's reaction to being a sneak attack victim in another team. Their genuine reaction of excitement and happiness made me want to be apart of that. I've always been the pay it forward type of person and this team is a great fit for me

 Amanda makes the cutest bows for little girls. I have a hard time when I go to her shop to decide on which is my favorite!

Aw this one is so cute - with the little garden worm in the center!

Sandi, who has been a team member for a number of years, always loves to help new sponsors. She is looking forward to introducing the shops that Amanda has selected!

When asked why she joined, Sandi said :

I wanted to do something nice for someone else. I have a blog and I love writing - so I wanted to write something about the sneak attacking and perhaps get more people interested in joining. This is such a fun group -


Sandi loves everything handmade and it shows in her shop. One of her favorite items is her felted bowl collection - and this one is truly unique - wouldn't it look great on your desk!

There are so many delightful items in Amanda's and Sandi's shops - you are sure to find something just right! Come join us as we chat in our Sneak Attack thread and get ready to meet the newest 'victims'.

We Have Two Beautiful "Victim" Treasuries for This Sneak Attack!

By a new member Isa of IsaStyle 

And From Theresa of KraftyGrannysHome 

Meet Kristen

Kristen, from K5Art, is sponsoring our sneak attack today at 5pm. A frequent sponsor, Kristen can always be counted on to find the cutest 'victims'.

I asked Kristen if she has any pets.

I have 6 cats ranging from 1 yr to 14 yrs. Their names, starting from the youngest on up, are Jasper, Scooter, Nicholas, Squeaky, Rambo, and Byron.

Well I'm a cat lover too - so I browsed through Kristen's shop to find just the right scrabble tile pendant - and oh my, I had so much trouble picking just one that features cats! This one had me giggling :D

I'll bet you love pets too - well find your favorite cat or dog scrabble tile pendant - they are so adorable.

And be sure to join us in our Sneak Attack thread as we get ready to meet Kristen's new Etsy shops.

Theresa of KraftyGrannysHome has made another beautiful treasury of our "Victims"

Meet Heather

Heather from Winemaker's Sister, or WMS as she is better known, is our sponsor today for our 3pm Etsy time Sneak Attack!

One of our 'veteran' team members, Heather has sponsored a number of times, and you can always be sure that the 'victims' she will select are wonderful and many of them have something to do with fiber - an obsession for many of us!

Over 2 years ago, I started writing these 'meet the sponsor' blog posts and decided this morning to go back to my first interview with Heather and let you know why she chose to participate in the sneak attacks.

I asked - how did you get started with the Sneak Attacks?

I learned about Sneak Attacks on the 3rd or 4th attack. Very early on! I was a member of EtsyGreetings team. One of the other members of the team had been "attacked" at the previous Sneak Attack and let the other team members know about it. I fell in love with the whole idea of a Sneak Attack. I could immediately imagine how a "victim" might feel when s/he first saw those emails coming in to let them know about their sales. I love the way a group of people could work together -- each doing a small thing -- and make such an impact on a new seller. Etsy can be a huge, impersonal place. Sneak Attacks suddenly make it warm and personal.

An avid knitter and spinner, Heather is always creating items for that knitter in your family. I especially love these little note cards celebrating the mother of modern knitting at her 100th birthday back in 2010.

If there is a knitter in your family - you can be sure you will find just the perfect gift for him or her at Heather's shop. Then come chat with us in our sneak attack thread as we get ready to meet the 'victims' who will be revealed at 3pm!
