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.

    One word will makes us break out into some random song associated with the word. I.E. someone yells “stop!” and we begin singing “In the name of love…”, “Oh nice boots”… “these boots are made for walking…” lol we all do it, it’s pretty funny :)

    Our family trait? We are world-class, at the top of our game, not be be trifled with… CUDDLERS! It takes years of practice as well as some innate ability, but we’re confident that no one can out compete our cuddling abilities. No one.

    Our family is bound together by several things! We are an alternative family (lesbians) so we our bound by our solidarity in the face of some pretty nasty bigotry in this world. That and our love of all things electronic!

    FAMILY ME!! My entire family is known for being extremely sarcastic. Our dry senses of humor, combined with our lack of any kind of verbal “filter,” get us in trouble quite often. In fact, when I started my current job, I was asked if I knew “a guy named Rick J,” because I seemed so much like him. I sure do know him–he’s my dad!
