This week’s random winner is… Megan (who simply and politely just entered “Pop me, please”). Congrats Megan!
Hope everyone’s having a great Labor Day! We thought we’d drop in with today’s giveaway and solve the little hint that we gave you in Friday’s post about this week’s prize. The three clues were: soda cans (aka: pop), a canvas, and the fact that the photo was taken in Instagram (hence the border and that signature square size). So, fellow Instagram addicts, this one’s for you. Well, I guess it’s for anyone who takes pictures or generally enjoys putting art on their walls. Canvaspop is the first company to specialize in turning Instagram photos into high-quality, UV-protected, scratch-proof matte finish canvases. And they’re giving one of you $300 to turn your Instagram dreams into wall art reality. And if you don’t dream in Instagram, they can take any other photos too – including your Facebook pics (and don’t miss the 30% discount code below even if you don’t take home the prize).
- PRIZE: A $300 credit to spend at Canvaspop
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “POP ME” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what your favorite photo is (Instagram or otherwise) from your adventures this summer. Did you capture a killer view on your vacation? Or get a hilarious snapshot of your kids playing in the pool? Or maybe you snagged an artsy angle of some iconic summer imagery – like a beach or a sunset? hot dogs on the grill? a kite flying high in the air?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Sept 5th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States & Canada

POP ME! I snapped a gorgeous view of the sky when driving through Quebec on my way home to NS (here: http://glitterglimmersparkleshimmer.blogspot.ca/2012/08/emo.html). The sky was all over the place that day – going from dark and stormy to beautiful and sunny in a matter of minutes!
Amanda says
POP ME!
My favourite would be a tough call – there are so many wonderful pictures of my wedding and honeymoon to choose from, though the one of my sister and I acting like total dorks while getting ready for the ceremony probably takes the cake (pun intended!)
Erin says
POP ME!
I love summer instagrams. One of my favorite is one I took of my husband and my mom at my favorite brunch place. She came to visit for a few days and it was an AWESOME visit! We did all the fun Chicago stuff. This was our last meal together and it’s a great shot of two of my favorite people!
Fatima says

My favorite instagram photo from the summer was of my son playing in his pool at his grandmother’s house. We caught him swinging the hose with this giant smile on his face and water spraying everywhere. Love it!

POP ME! i love the sneaky shots i get of my kids silly faces!!
Amanda Gray says
Pop Me!
My favorite instagram pictures from this summer were my boys playing in the inflatable pool. They, at least, pretended it was a much bigger deal than it was. It was hilarious.
Stephanie @ Legally Blinde says
POP ME! I’m not a very artsy photo taker (I wish I were!) but I do love playing around in Instagram. I think my favorite Instagram photos from this summer are the ones that I took in Montana when I was there on vacation. I don’t need to have any photography skills with landscapes like that! Thanks for this great giveaway, and enjoy the rest of your Labor Day weekend!
Christine says
POP ME! All my beach pictures and the ones of my dogs are hilarious!
Becki says
POP ME! A photo of my daughter at the fair
Alyssa says
Pop me! My favorite picture is a silly one I took of my boys a few days ago. My 2 year old is holding his 2 month old brother while looking like he’s about to pull some sort of naughty big brother trick and my 2 month old is wrinkling his brow like he knows it’s coming!!
Amanda says
Pop me!
My favorite photo this summer was of the sun setting on a beautiful church steeple. The picture didn’t do the actual scene justice – but it is nice to look at the picture and remember just how beautiful and serene it was that night.
Shannon says
POP ME!
My favorite pic from this summer is a tie between my daughter blowing bubble in our backyard (we have lots of those!) and a view of Waikiki Beach from the summit of Diamond Head. My husband and I went there and had to climb Diamond Head for the view.
Shannon says
POP Me – my favorite pics are the ones I had done of the kids this Father’s day…They were by the river at our inlaws beach house and they were each holding a letter to spell out “DaD”…came out pretty cute!

I’m a photographer so I actually shot 20K images this summer (weddings). But My favourite so far was actually a candid little snapshot my best friend took of me holding four babies (none of which are my own). So funny.

i married my best friend this summer, so the day-of pics pretty much outdid almost any shots i took with my phone. i could flip through the proofing site all day. i do love the instagram he took of me drilling holes and screwing in pipes for a garment rack we built for our new home.
Rebecca says
POP ME!
Honestly, I’m really bad about remembering to take pictures…I usually leave it to my husband or other people I’m with at the time, but I did get some great “nature” shots this summer of interesting insects in my garden.

I’d have to say the best summer picture we took was of my 6 month old nephew playing in a blow up pool back home in GA… what a fun time!
Sarah says

POP ME!
I have a great candid instagram photo of my friend and I, taken in the hospital the day after she gave birth to her first child. We traveled to visit her and attend her baby shower…and the baby arrived 6 weeks early, while we were there! It was a special weekend and I’m so happy to have a few great photos to help remember it.
