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.

    PUMP IT UP when I want to be wild– TURN IT DOWN when I want to be mellow. Why do I have to choose only one?

    PUMP IT UP!!

    While I’ll admit sometimes I like turning it down, pumping it up is really more my style…I think if I wasn’t so busy all the time, I would die of not knowing what to do with myself.

    I love quiet–I can’t think with too much noise. Sitting in a quiet place (especially the beach) and reading is one of my favorite things in the world!

    PUMP IT UP!! Our home is a silly, boisterous placed filled with laughter and playfulness – my husband and I love to laugh and play, and now that we have our little boy he loves to join in the fun. There are definitely times for quiet, peace, and intimate conversations but what’s more peaceful and intimate than laughing together?

    I love both. Sometimes it’s great to go out on the town with lots of loud music and laughting and other times I love snuggling up with the hubby and our little guy to watch a movie or just be peaceful!

    “TURN IT DOWN”
    As much as we love our very loud lifestyle (he’s a guitar-player); our favourite nights are the two of us and the pup in the living room playing games.

    PUMP IT UP! We’ve always got something going on, and with a newborn in the house things are rarely quiet. I LOVE “Wherever we are together” – two cross country moves in two years has forced us to feel at home as a family, not because of our house.

    If I had to pick one, I’d say peace and quiet is more my thing. I do love laughter and a good party every now and then though!
