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 & TURN IT DOWN! I’m loud and love nothing better than laughter, but with 3 kids under 6, I do like a break to give my ears a chance to stop ringing;).

    PUMP IT UP! no, wait, TURN IT DOWN!

    My life is all about getting the 50-50…too much of either leaves me an extremely crabby, unpleasant person to be around. I suspect that I’ll turn more into a “turn it down” with kids, though.

    TURN IT DOWN!

    My work is crazy, busy, loud and always hopping, so I’m so thankful I get to come home to a peaceful house and just enjoy some down time with my hubby and our pup.

    My heaven (and safe-haven) is home.

    Oh, and I love this designer! I need the “Wherever we are together” print. My husband and I always say that we are “home” to each other, so it’d be perfect for us!

    “PUMP IT UP” and “TURN IT DOWN” Can I choose both? I don’t know that i could handle just one.. but right now I would turn it down after a long day at work. Time for bed just to start it all over again.

    TURN IT DOWN! At least 70% of the time. I definitely enjoy the quiet most of the time (since my job involves talking all day with excited high schoolers) but sometimes I’ve just got to pump it up: laugh loud, sing, play music, dance…

    Actually, I need periods of both in my life. But, I find myself missing the pumped up action more than the turned down serenity when I’m in the opposite period. If that makes sense…?

    TURN IT DOWN!

    Nothing better than a serious conversation (with added fun, ok) plus some cooking, watching a movie or going out having dinner in a nice restaurant. Our lives are loud enough as they are, I need more peace and quiet.

    Thanks so much for the giveaway.

    TURN IT DOWN!

    Pump it up! I love being surrounded by my loving family and friends. But I manage a team of 50 at work, so anytime I have a moment to myself I like to turn it down, especially on the drive home, i like the quiet all to myself.

    PUMP IT UP! For a while after my son was born, I was in a definite “TURN IT DOWN” period…sleep deprivation will do that to you! But now that he’s 1, I can’t wait to get up and sing, laugh and dance with him all day!
