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 all have a very strong faith in the LORD and although my eyes are aqua and my husbands are dark olive green both of our kids have blue eyes…my son’s are shaped like mine and my daughters are shaped like her dads…

    Family me!!!! These are way too cute… As for family traits – we all have my Grandma’s nose, and somehow my parents both have longer-than-the-big-toe-second-toes so all of us share a super long, alien looking second toe. :)

    Our family is all really loud. I have a 2 year old who can sing at least 6 Japanese soccer team fan songs, from start to finish, at the top of her lungs. And she’s the quiet one.

    Family ME! I would love this in my living room. :D We have a strong trait to serve others. My parents instilled in us a desire to serve and to find great joy in it. We will do (almost) anything to help a friend, another family member, or even a complete stranger. I’m passing it on to our children.

    FAMILY ME!!!

    Definitely have some strong family genes over here. I look just like my dad (the iPhoto identifier gets us confused all the time) and my sister looks like my mom. Personality wise? We can all yell, argue and bicker with the best of them…but I wouldn’t have it any other way.

    Family Me!!!!
    My family is huge (think My Big Fat Greek Wedding, but German). We ALL talk at the same time, but we carry on 2-3 conversations at the same time. If we didn’t do this, nothing would ever get said because we would be waiting all night for 1 person to tell a story. And on top of all the talking, we all talk really fast (I’m from Jersey…can’t help it).
