Fab Freebies: Family Ties

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Although only 3 will win free prints, everyone can score free shipping on Genuinely Yours orders before June 30th with code YHL2011FS. And according to random.org, our trio of winners are… Alicia (whose family all shares their mom’s dark eyes), Sondra (who feels like she gave birth to three exact clones of her husband) and Erica (whose first two kids have her eyes, but the third got daddy’s). Congrats ladies!

This giveaway combines some of our favorite things: silhouettes, colorful art, and family (if there were a ceramic animal or a map involved, our heads might explode). So needless to say, this prize from Etsy seller Genuinely Yours gets us going. She designs graphic prints that are customized to feature your family, your choice of color, and even your preferred language (good thing, since this prize goes anywhere in the world). So this week THREE of you can pick either her modern spin on the family tree or her silhouette-y take on the family portrait (she does couples too).

Genuinely Yours

  • PRIZE: A family tree, family silhouette or couples silhouette in either 8″ x 10″ or 11″ x 14″ from Genuinely Yours
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “FAMILY ME! and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … tell us what trait or quality ties your family together. Are you all known for being particularly athletic? Bookish? Funny? Friendly? Or maybe you all share a common physical trait?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, May 25th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: Three
  • PRIZE SHIPS: Anywhere on the entire planet!
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from Genuinely Yours.

    My family of origin? We’re loudmouthy, funny, boundary-crossing people who really care about one another. My new little family of three? Well, my husband and I are complete opposites, and our little guy is the perfect combination of the two of us. Love us!

    FAMILY ME!!!! I was RIFed a couple of months ago. As a gift, a friend put my name in a drawing for some family pictures before I don’t have a job anymore. We just took them this past weekend and we would LOVE to make a silhouette out of a couple.

    I think we all make family time a priority. The lawn can wait,
    we aren’t always rushing from one event to another. We hang out,
    take an interest in what each of us is doing. Hopefully it will continue
    through the teen years ahead … kinda like progressing from Velcro to
    Duct Tape :-D

    FAMILY ME!

    It wasn’t always this way, but now my family all shares a love of dogs. My mom has been a life-long dog-lover and is currently rearing a rather mischievous Yellow Lab puppy. Ever since my husband and I got our Vizsla 3 years ago, my dad is a changed man too. He refers to our dog, Sasha, as his “grand-puppy.”

    Our commonality is that my husband and I both have “mini-me’s” – my daughter is my brown eyed, brown haired twin and my son is just like my blond, blue eyed husband!

    I’m not sure what ties my family together… we all look totally different, and have different abilities (I’m a writer, my sister is a math wiz, etc.). My husband and his three brothers are practically identical, though!

    I am the oldest of 13 siblings, and now as adults we are all tied together by our past/growing up years. There is nothing like sibling relationships for sisters/brothers to understand who you are and where you’re coming from. Love them!
