They May Call ‘Em “Tiny” but It’s A Big Giveaway!

September 19, 2008 by Elaine

I don’t know if you all ever look at my counter over there on the bottom of my new lefty sidebar (who are we kidding I KNOW you don’t!) but it recently cruised over the 20,ooo mark and I personally think that is cause to celebrate. I mean that many hits is pretty cool if you ask me. Of course a lot of them are because of my sweet hus and, my friend from college who says she reads every day (Hey Jen!) but hey – they all count!!

Plus! Tiny Prints contacted me and asked if they could be highlighted on my blog and I said sure, but have you got some goodies for my readers? And boy do they!! So let’s Celebreate 20,000 hits with a GIVEAWAY! Tiny Prints has generously offered a $50 credit to their site for one lucky commenter! And I know their stuff is great because I got both Little G’s birth announcements and his baptims invitations from them. And both were super cute!

Here are a couple more of examples of what they do. Aren’t these precious?

So here’s what you gotta do for a chance to win my friends:

Go on over to Tiny Prints and check out their site.

 
They also have holiday cards and other fun stuff.
Leave ONE comment on THIS POST about what you would most likely use the 50 bucks toward. (Any comment that does not mention one of their products will be deleted).
You DO NOT have to have a blog to enter, just a valid email address where they can send your “prize!” (that means you can enter too Jen!) PLEASE leave your email address in the comments if you do not have a blog. Otherwise, if you win and I cannot contact you I will move on to the next randomly chosen winner.
The giveaway ends on the evening of Thursday, September 25th and I will announce the winner on Friday, the 26th, one week from today. I will use Random.Org to choose the lucky winner.
Okay, click on over there and see all the cuteness and come back and tell me what you covet. Ready… Set… Go!

    I think the birthday invitations are cute. Store bought ones are generally…lame.

    September 19, 2008 at 12:09 pm

    I would definitely use it the $50 for my Christmas cards. I’ve already been thinking about what ones I’m going to do this year.

  3. Chelle says

    September 19, 2008 at 12:53 pm

    Yay for giveaways!

    After browsing on their site (okay, maybe I was drooling…) I have decided IF I am the lucky winner, I would get Christmas cards. Most definitely!

    And congrats on your count, Elaine! Woo-hoo!

    September 19, 2008 at 12:57 pm

    Oh, I love it.

    I couldn’t find 40th birthday invites, it is 11 months away, but I must plan ahead, so I would go with the Blossoming Season : chocolate. I love how the picture is so big and the card shape stands out from the other photo cards.

    I hope I win!! Pick me, pick me!

  5. TheAngelForever says

    September 19, 2008 at 1:14 pm

    Congratulations on the milestone 🙂

    I would likely do New Years cards with photos on them.

    Thanks for the fabulous giveaway!

  6. jill jill bo bill says

    September 19, 2008 at 1:23 pm

  7. My Goodness says

    September 19, 2008 at 3:36 pm

    I like the Christmas Cards…Dancing Trees(four trees), simply adorable! 🙂

    Congrats on the 20k hits!

  8. amanda says

    September 19, 2008 at 3:51 pm

    congrats on the big number friend!!

    if i were to be the lucky winner – which i kinda need to be – i would totally get the “Oh My! Thank You Cards” to send out after the big one year rubber-ducky themed bday bash!!

    did you see them?? they have a cute little rubber ducky on them!! hello – perfect 🙂

  9. Christina says

    September 19, 2008 at 4:16 pm

    Yay, an awesome giveaway! I’m working on birth annoucements for a friend now, so that’s what I’ve got my eye on….Spring Branch and Ribbons have caught my eye so far, but there are so many great ones!

  10. Lisa@verybusymomwith4 says

    September 19, 2008 at 5:43 pm

    I’d totally do Christmas cards 🙂

  11. Danielle (Life with the Hewitt Family) says

    September 19, 2008 at 5:49 pm

    Great post! I am always looking for new designs for Christmas Card and Birthday invitations. I will keep this one in mind.

    The Single Snowflake – Black looks so classy and would be a perfect Christmas Card for our family…not that we are classy or anything!

  12. Murmer says

    September 19, 2008 at 6:11 pm

    Considering how few companies offer adoption announcements I would so do the Heart Home Photo Girl Adoption Announcement. Thanks

  13. LifeatTheCircus says

    September 19, 2008 at 6:22 pm

    Since we have Halloween on the brain having gone out to buy costumes this week…I’d pick the trick or treat card called Candy Corn! It’d be cute to send out to the family members with a pic of the kiddos in their costumes!!

  14. jenniferflemming@bellsouth.net says

    September 19, 2008 at 7:03 pm

    It’s my afternoon pump session…yes, that is boob-pumping- joy! Okay, with my $50, I will buy super cute b-day party invites for my sweet girls. Abby (.5) and Maddie (2.5) will graciously celebrate the anniversaries of their births together this year. I decided to do a shared-party for the sake our honored guests’ mamas who will appreciate not attending 2 parties in the same month. My precious Abby came, much to my surprise (since Maddie was 10 days late!) 18 days early. In fact, Abby was brought home from the hospital on her big sis’ 2nd b-day- 3/10. I had her party that next Saturday, one week after the delivery. Oh, Random-prize-winner-goddess, pick me, pick me. I need the perfect double-invite!

  15. Mrs. Staff Sergeant says

    September 19, 2008 at 7:36 pm

    You know what’s funny? I was considering ordering birth announcements from them anyway come November 🙂 They sure are cute!

  16. Kristen M. says

    September 19, 2008 at 7:39 pm

    Christmas cards because we haven’t done them in a couple years but it seems like the easiest way to let people know that we’ve moved.

  17. Megryansmom says

    September 19, 2008 at 7:41 pm

    Ohhh I would spend the $50 on Holly Dots Wintergreen Chritmas Cards! Thanks!

  18. Octamom says

    September 19, 2008 at 7:42 pm

    Congrats, congrats on the big hit number! Great way to celebrate!

    Loved your comments over at my place on birth order–it’s so funny how some siblings seem to fit the profiles perfectly while other don’t–guess that’s part of what makes people fun!!
    Blessings!

  19. Embroidered Warmth says

    September 19, 2008 at 8:05 pm

    How wonderful! You lucky duck. Tiny Prints is a great place – I just got a birth announcement they made a week ago. I wanted their Christmas cards last year, but the fundage was not cooperative. The Embroidered Warmth cards are right up my alley.

  20. angie says

    September 19, 2008 at 9:08 pm

    What a great give-away! And congrats on hitting over 20K. I wonder where I am…….great excuse to celebrate.

    If I won, which I really want to, I’d use the credit towards personal stationary. I LOVE the Stitched Ribbon Clover cards.

  21. christel says

    September 19, 2008 at 10:36 pm

    20K wow…wonderful reason to celebrate. I would definitely look into getting Christmas cards. It’s never too early. I especially like the “Peaceful Birds” card.
    Thanks for the great giveaway.

  22. Laski Gal says

    September 20, 2008 at 1:10 am

    Congratulations!!! What a major milestone. How cool is it to know how much you are appreciated in the bloggy world?!?!

    And what a great giveaway! Thanks so much to you and Tiny Prints . . .

    I’m due in a month and I have been looking at their photo birth announcements. A friend ordered from them and her card was adorable. I wish I knew if I was having a boy or a girl! I really like the Vintage Monogram and Ribbon Classic & Jumbo Dots. It would be great timing to win these, thanks for doing this!

    (doh, I am the comment deleter from above. I had trouble figuring out how to leave my email.)

    I didn’t realize they did anything besides birth announcements.
    I would totally use the $50 credit for fun birthday party invitations for my little man who will be turning 3 on New Year’s Eve!

  32. Christine says

    September 21, 2008 at 2:03 am

    Most definitely Christmas cards! I love the design of your blog, btw…

  33. silverhartgirl says

    September 21, 2008 at 5:30 am

    I love this one.
    http://www.tinyprints.com/products/ProductView_4293.htm
    It is so simple yet pretty.

  34. Jyl @ MommyGossip says

    September 21, 2008 at 5:34 am

    I love this site. If I were to win (please, please choose me–I never win anything)… I would either order a Halloween or a Christmas party invitation, depending on how soon they could arrive. I haven’t thrown a party in quite a while and would love to add style to my next one with the perfect invitation. I was thinking Holiday Berry for X-Mas and am undecided on the Halloween one, because they are all soooo cute.

  35. karen and co. says

    September 21, 2008 at 6:05 am

    So many cute things. I especially like their holiday photo cards. My favorites are probably the Holiday Patchwork and the Winter Blossoms styles. Then again their Heart Shower valentines card would be so cute for Christmas too.

  36. Heather.PNR says

    September 21, 2008 at 7:41 am

    I like the look and message of Drifting Dandelions

    I will be needing some birth announcements come May! It’s hard to say exactly which I would choose–they’re all so cute!–but the Hip Chicks designs caught my eye. So sweet!

  39. Julie says

    September 21, 2008 at 2:38 pm

    Congrats on 20,000 – WOW!

    I would definetly use the $50 towards holiday cards – it is one of my favorite things all year to send and receive the love 🙂

    Julie

  40. Jinxy and Me says

    September 21, 2008 at 4:01 pm

    I would choose the Stitched Ribbon: Blue cards. Very nice!

  41. Sarah says

    September 21, 2008 at 6:51 pm

    I really love their holiday cards. Maybe the starry chocolate, or the happy streak: holly red. Much more my style than the others I’ve seen.
    Thanks!

  42. sarajane says

    September 21, 2008 at 7:40 pm

    Loved the zoo-animals waterfall cards. So sweet!

  43. Chrissy says

    September 21, 2008 at 8:24 pm

    I LOVE Tiny Prints! I used them for birth announcements for my daughter and my son! I alittle pricey but the quality was sooo worth it. I will definitely be using them for my holiday cards this year but a giveaway for help with that would be lovely!

  44. maris says

    September 21, 2008 at 10:00 pm

    Love the thank you cards! It makes me sad that email is replacing handwritten thank yous. Email is quicker but I love to give OR receive cheerful, handwritten thank you note.

  45. Family Oliver says

    September 21, 2008 at 11:05 pm

    I love tiny prints new baby announcements! We’re due in May and we’d love $50 to send our announcements.

  46. heresthediehl says

    September 22, 2008 at 1:26 am

    i love the stitched-looking green and brown personalized cards! or, i could get the polka dot momma thank yous for my pregnant SIL.

  47. junglewife says

    September 22, 2008 at 3:44 am

    All their stuff is just gorgeous, but I think I’d go for the Christmas cards. Maybe the Sweet Snow-print in Holly Red. But it’s so hard to choose!!!

  48. Dana says

    September 22, 2008 at 5:11 am

    I really like their flower shower thank you cards. I always like to have extra thank you cards around, for whenever you get something unexpectedly.

    I hope I win!

  49. Jaimee says

    September 22, 2008 at 5:15 am

    Oh yeah, Christmas cards it would be for me! Those are adorable!!

  50. Rach (Mommy Learns to Blog) says

    September 22, 2008 at 5:19 am

    I adore Tiny Prints – their stuff is so great!

    I would use $50 towards Holiday cards – definitely Holiday cards! I’m loving the Starry Chocolate!

    Random(dot)org – pick ME, please!

    Oh, and I love Gavin’s birth announcement – so sweet! Can you tell I love chocolate brown?

  51. ginny says

    September 22, 2008 at 1:51 pm

    I would certainly use the $50 toward Christmas cards. I am loving the sweater print.

  52. Sarah says

    September 22, 2008 at 3:35 pm

    Great giveaway!

  53. Rebecca says

    September 23, 2008 at 5:43 am

    I have been coveting tiny prints birth announcements since before my daughter was born! If I were to win, I’d use the money toward one of their beautiful Christmas designs, specifically the Snowbird Song, Snowbird Perch or the Holly Garland.
    Thanks!

  56. Coupon Clippin' Mommy says

    September 23, 2008 at 3:37 pm

    I love that site! I would probably use the GC towards one of the following items:

    Little Drummer, Stitched Flowers or Louis Dog Thank You Cards1

  57. you da mom! says

    September 23, 2008 at 7:47 pm

    spring sunshine for baby girls! this birth announcement is adorable. i’m expecting a girl in january, so these tiny prints would come at just the right time! thanks!

  58. Kristen says

    September 23, 2008 at 11:42 pm

    What to choose what to choose!

    I think I have taken forever to leave a comment just because I can’t decide. They are all just too cute!

    I loved everything, but I would probably use the $50 towards the holiday patchwork christmas card. It was just so beautiful!

    Fingers crossed! This is a great giveaway!!!

  59. Brittany says

    September 24, 2008 at 1:47 am

    I would most certainly have Christmas cards made (I like the snowflake design) and matching address labels. I was just thinking about how I was going to do Christmas cards, today… hmm… 🙂

  60. Tracy says

    September 24, 2008 at 4:19 am

    So many choices…but I would probably use the 50 bucks for either Christmas cards or Jackson’s first birthday invitations. Everything was very cute and too hard to make a decision!

  61. janetfaye says

    September 24, 2008 at 5:32 pm

    I would use the $50 to purchase Tole Holiday Cards.

    janetfaye (at) gmail (dot) com

  62. Tara says

    September 25, 2008 at 2:24 am
