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.

    I am torn. While I love live music, great parties, and having great times with friends, sometimes there is nothing better that escaping from the world and spending some time reflecting and enjoying some peace and quiet. This was a hard one..

    I know that craziness can’t always be avoided, so whenever I have the opportunity I try to keep the house fairly quiet. As long as the TV is off I’m happy, and there’s usually music and knitting involved.

    Pump it Down??? Maybe I’m bi-polar, but I don’t think so. Overall, I’m an extrovert, but nothing competes with a glass of wine, a great book and a fabulous night of sleep!

    PUMP IT DOWN!

    Yes, I need both expressions!
    Sometimes I need a little rest. Like yesterday. I sat down in a park, the sun was shining, the birds were singing, the scent of flowers was in the air… I had time to read a book and nobody interrupted me. Wonderful.
    But sometimes I need trouble. I need loud music to dance. I need my friends and their laugther. I need the discussions when my whole family comes together. It shows me I’m alive.
