#ad: I get rewarded just for making someone smile, do YOU? #HallmarkCardRewards


#ad: This is a compensated campaign in collaboration with Hallmark and Latina Bloggers Connect.

Hallmark Card Rewards








I get rewarded just for making those I know and love smile! Just for letting them know I was thinking of them! Something I do even when it's not a particularly special occasion. I love to celebrate everyday moments and victories with friends and families, not just the major milestones! I learned the hard way last year that everyday moments are 'the special moments'! And I love the look on a friend or family member's face when I surprise them with a 'real card'. The smile on my niece or my nephew butterfly faces when I send them a card in the mail just because they got an A on a 'hard test' or won an award for team sports is priceless!




I actually get rewarded TWICE (but please don't tell them that!). The first is for the happiness that my card gives them, and the second is via Hallmark Rewards! Yes that's right, you get rewarded for buying cards! NICE, verdad? (verdad? = right?) :-) So if I go in and buy cards for co-workers, friends and family and I purchase at or about 50 individual cards (this is for individual cards, not boxed sets) I get one reward for every 5 cards I buy; so if I nab 50 cards, I'll end up with 10 rewards that I can use for either Lands End, Applebee's, Omaha Steaks and Cherry Moon Farms! Pretty sweet deal!

Get the lowdown on Hallmark Card Rewards:

Hallmark has been a Holiday Tradition for my family as my mom would buy a new holiday ornament at various Hallmark locations during her travels in and out of the city, it's a ritual we still do to this day! We like to get collectible ornaments especially and each year we run over to get the next ornament in several series we are collecting for our tree! Our tree decorations are NOT complete until we add this year's newest store ornament!

One of our favorite types of ornaments to collect are the carousel horses, Hallmark always gets great ones and a new one each year, I have this one, it's one of my favorites:

BUTTERFLIES: what is your favorite gift to buy at Hallmark or do you just focus on cards? (Either Way, be sure to get rewarded for your purchases!) 

If anyone saves up enough rewards, I LOVE Applebees riblets by the way! So if you save up enough you treat to dinner OK? Wink! WInk! :-)

Un-boxing summer fun! What until you see what this simple box can do!


I bet I know what you are thinking 'But Butterfly, Cocktails = Empty Calories which is not good", am I right? How about if I told you there is a way to still enjoy a refreshing summer cocktail (or mocktail if alcohol/spirits is not your thing) and still keep that sexy summer bikini body you trained for all winter! or at least not look like you are auditioning for the Trailer Choir's 'Rockin' the Beer Gut' video! (super funny by the way!)

Keeping it cool doesn't mean you have to avoid a fun and social time with friends, in fact you may even be the hit of the summer fiesta (party) with these stay cool/stay slim recipes!

Try out these easy recipes and still stick to your favorite Slim-Fast Diet:

Slim-Fast, Berry Sexy Vanilla Sunrise, Cocktail, Recipe, Rum, Alcohol, Spirits, #SlimFastVeranoSexy
Slim-Fast Berry Sexy Vanilla Sunrise Recipe (WITH alcohol version)

I will post all these recipes on a Pinterest Board on our Pinterest Page, it will be called #SlimFastVeranoSexy, and you will be able to see all these recipe cards full sized for easy printing! (Sorry my blog template shrinks them so much!). You can press on them to see them full sized also, then just hit the back arrow to come back here and see the rest!

If alcohol/spirits are not for you, then try the refreshing mocktail version. You know that with Slim-Fast Shakes you are getting not only great taste, but 10 grams of protein, 5 grams of fiber and 4 hours of hunger control, making it easy to stick to your plan and achieve your weight loss goals. But obvs with or without alcohol, everything in moderation, OK Butterfly?

Slim-Fast Sassy Strawberry Colada Cocktail Recipe (this is the WITH alcohol version)

As you can probably tell by now, the 'daisy' border is for the recipes using alcohol, and the 'roses' border is for the same recipe without alcohol! I'm a Piña Colada lover so this one definitely went over well with me and my friends!

Butterfly I don't know about you, but I love to mix things up, I like to host weekly Wii parties, nothing formal, just friends and family, we love to play dance games, and these cocktails and mocktails both dovetail perfectly with our fitness games and dance fun!

SlimFast, Cinful Iced Latte, Cocktails, Cocktail Recipe, Cappuccino Delight Shake, rum, dark rum, cinammon sugar, #SlimFastVeranoSexy
Slim-Fast Cinful Iced Latte Cocktail Recipe (WITH alcohol version)
This Cinful Iced Latte is equally good without the dark rum, but if you like cocktails like Irish Coffee, this Cinful Iced Latte will definitely be right up your alley! I for one love Mudslides and Brown Cows, so these shakes definitely work in those recipes as well (although what doesn't taste better with Kahlua right?) If you like these you can check out more SlimFast cocktail/mocktail recipes and keep your summer slim and sexy by visiting here: http://wow.slim-fast.com/cocktailrecipes.pdf

I made a Slim-Fast Mudslide! All the great taste, less calories, and  vitamins and minerals too, what's NOT to love?

Get Social:

My Take:

These recipes are definitely helping me to mix things up, and they have gone over well at the weekly Wii party (now I will admit after working up a sweat we sometimes end things with ordering pizzas, but at least we start off right!).
