Another Bloggy Giveaway Carnival!

I really had fun with the last Bloggy Giveaway Carnival. Even though I'm insanely busy these days and I'm getting a late start, I can't pass up the chance to participate!

What You Can Win
Instead of offering products from my Cafe Press Shop this time, I decided to offer up some extra photo products from various online photo services that I've ordered over the last year. I had a hard time describing them all in words, so I took a quick photo (sorry for the not so great quality).


The items include:

• A Photo Calendar
• 8 photo stickers
• 10 photo postcards

As last time, these are all photos I've taken!

How to Enter
Just leave a comment on this post and make sure I have a way to contact you (either via a blog or email address)

Who Can Enter
Contest open to anyone, anywhere on Earth :-)

Deadline
Contest ends at 11:59pm Pacific Time on Saturday, August 2nd. I'll post the winner on Sunday.

And if you like my photos, please feel free to browse through my Cafe Press Shop (http://cafepress.com/michellebphotos). I have various photo products using many of these same photos there for sale.

Enjoy the Bloggy Giveaway Carnival!

Congratulations, Erin and thanks again everyone for your interest:-)

As I have more time and take more photos, I will add to my Cafe Press Shop (http://www.cafepress.com/michellebphotos), so feel free to take a look around!

I'm Giving Away More Free Stuff!

Comments are now closed! I will draw a winner and post the results tomorrow!

I heard about the Bloggy Giveaways Carnival just as the last one ended. I've been pretty lucky with winning things these last few months, so I really wanted to participate in the next one. I'm so glad I didn't miss this one!

For those of you who know me, you know that photography is a passion of mine. I recently opened a Cafe Press Shop (http://www.cafepress.com/michellebphotos) with some photo products using photos I've taken. I'm offering some photo note cards and a keepsake box (shown below) to the lucky winner of this giveaway!

Here are the details:

What You Can Win
Since I couldn't decide on just one thing to give away, I'm going to give away 3 things! One lucky winner will get the 3 items noted below:

A set of 10 Stormy Winter Sunset note cards (blank inside)

A set of 10 Windmill note cards (blank inside)

A Floral/Garden in Bloom Keepsake Box (front pictured below)

Updated to Add: The keepsake box is in fact a box, but isn't necessarily meant to hold the note cards (it's not quite shaped right).

How to Enter
You must leave a comment (including your name) on this specific post to be entered. Please make sure that I have a way to contact you or that you check back on Sunday, April 27 and email me if you win!

It's easiest if you leave your email address in your comment (if it's not on a blog or profile). That way I can contact you directly if you win!

Who Can Enter
This contest is open to anyone, anywhere on planet Earth. I'll pay for shipping nationally or internationally, but sorry, shipping to the moon, the international space station or beyond just isn't practical :-P

This contest ends at 11:59pm on Saturday, April 26. I'll draw the winner and post the result on Sunday, April 27.

Did You Get Your Free Slurpee Today?

I learn such interesting things being a teacher. I found out in class today that since the date is 7/11, the store 7-Eleven gives away free slurpees! Of course, the slurpee is only 7.11 ounces (pretty small), but hey it's free. I hadn't had a slurpee in ages so it was a nice change. I tried to drink it too fast though and got brain freeze even with such a small amount.

I didn't get a picture, but I may try to get one of the 7.11 ounce cup in the next couple of days to post here...

More Photo Calendars!

I'm going to be out of town for a couple of days, and I decided to move this post from last weekend up to the top.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

I haven't been inspired to blog much lately and haven't had a chance to take photos either, so it's been kinda quiet here.

Anyway, I found a few more photo calendars, so I thought I'd post again to see if anyone else is interested:) I now have 3 sunset calendars and 2 general photo calendars. Both calendars go from June 2007 to May 2008.

To give you a better idea of the photos in each calendar, here are photos of the back of each one that shows all 12 months at a glance (they are a bit out of focus, sorry).

General Photo Calendar

Sunset Photo Calendar

Again, if you want one, email me at lilikoi44@gmail.com and put Photo Calendar in the subject. In the body of the email, give me your snail mail address and let me know which calendar you want, and I'll send it to you-- even if you are outside of the USA.

Hope you're all having a great weekend!
