Fab Freebie: Pump Up The Volume

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***

I’m gonna bust out some flashback lingo from YHL circa 2008: prepare to swoon. This week’s giveaway is from our lovely sponsor Jessica Rose at Vol. 25, home to some of the most charming art around. I mean, how can you not fall for these robotic lovebirds?

Vol25 Robots

The great thing is that Jessica’s artwork comes in the form of prints, t-shirts, rubber stamps, mouse pads, books and even photoshop overlays (so you can add a little hand-drawn flare to a photo). And since we couldn’t even begin to pick just a few favorite items for the giveaway, Jessica’s hooking up TWO of you with $50 gift cards towards anything in her shop (plus there’s a discount awaiting everyone on Thursday so stay tuned for that). Now you that know what’s up for grabs – how ’bout some more eye candy?

Vol25 Bicycle

Vol25 Typewriter

And here are all the contest deets:

  • PRIZE: A $50 gift certificate towards anything from Vol. 25’s shops on Etsy or Zazzle.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with either the words “PUMP IT UP” or “TURN IT DOWN” depending on…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … whether you love a loud and lively lifestyle or you prefer to keep things quiet and peaceful. Do you feel better surrounded by lots of activity, energizing music, or boisterous laughter? Or would you rather find yourself in an intimate conversation, enjoying soothing nature sounds, or quietly reading a book?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, April 21th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: TWO
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere in the world! Woo to the hoo.
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

Find more freebie info on our Giveaway FAQs page. Pics courtesy of Vol. 25.

    For every day, turn it down. I like a good party on occasion, but quiet gives me time to recharge.

    These prints are adorable. Pick me!

    Mostly :) I am about to get married and have appreciated the mellow moments that come with being in a committed relatinship. However, I still enjoy a fun and wild night out with the girls from time to time.

    PUMP, PUMP IT UP & TURN IT DOWN ALL AROUND!

    I love a little of both. There are times where life needs to be dramatic and a little crazy… it keeps us wanting more and keeps things exciting. But, after all the excitement, it’s nice to sit down, light a candle or lay outside on the grass with a good book. So, I’d have to say, my life is a mixture of both and that’s how I like it. And now I’m left with the song, “Pump up the Jam” by Technotronic in my head.

    “PUMP IT UP” I love to be in the mist of the craziness. The more friends, actitivies and excitement around me the better. However, I like to wind down and take my quiet moments but the fun – loud times out shine those for sure!

    I might be someone that likes to have quite moments, but I can’t deny that my life is anything but a mellow and calm world. I have to have music and tv going while I clean or do homework… I am always going and doing stuff…. I work full time and go to grad school at night! Every weekend is booked at least 3-4 weeks ahead of time. I am definitely a pump it up girl!

    “Turn it Down!”
    My husband and I both travel for work separately at least 4 days a week. In between work, visiting far away family and friends, and traveling for pleasure we spend most of our time together anywhere but home. The print of the house truly speaks to our life together! People ask me all the time if it bothers us being away from home so much and I have always said that where ever my husband is, that is my home.
