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.

    FAMILY ME!!!

    We love to have fun (get into trouble). Everything Thanksgiving we usually had minimum of 25-30 people. “The Cousins” always made it “tradition” to ride 4-wheelers in the woods behind our grandparents pasture…. which meant a trip to the emergency room for a few.

    We are just starting our little family with a bun in the oven, but my husband and I are very laid back and both have a cheesy sense of humor. I think that is what keeps us connected. :)

    We’re getting family pics made next month so the family silhouette would be PERFECT for us. Our family stays connected through games, whether it’s a cutthroat game of candyland with my 5 year old, a water fight with my 7 year old, or a lego adventure with my 3 year old, we’re always playing and laughing together. I love my family!

    My Fiance and I are total opposites of each other. He is goofy, outgoing, and always the center of attention, I’m shy, serious and sometimes a little over emotional. I think it really holds us together as a couple
    The only things that we really have in common is our love of all things nerdy and our sometimes stubborn ways

    So far its only us and our almost 1 year old. But I would have to say we are all bookworms even the little one. She’ll sit for a good 15 – 20 minutes “reading” her books on the living room floor, turning the pages and babbling away.

    I grew up in northern MN so I love hunting and fishing. My husband and I met in college through friends that I grew up with. His OBSESSION with hunting and fishing brought him up to my neck of the woods one weekend with our mutual friends. The rest is history!

    I think there’s a bookworm quality on my mom’s side, and a quick wit/banter quality on my dad’s.
