giveaway :: blurb

I had looked into blurb before for some just for fun book printing so I am pretty excited for this giveaway.  Ivan and I are planning on finially printing some wedding photos blurb book style and I can't wait to get on that project.
I totally wish that my wedding shoes were that pretty!

Ok, sorry, back to the giveaway!

What's up for grabs? *Please note that this giveaway is open to my fellow Canadians only! Sorry international friends! Oh whatever, you guys already get all the good stuff, I don't feel that bad. ;) *
If you win you will receive a $35 promo code to put towards making your own book. That is definitely enough to make at least one book depending on what you choose!

How to Enter: *please leave a way to contact you if you win*
Visit blurb, take a look around and let me know what kind of book you think you would make if you win! There are so many options and along with our wedding album I really want to make an Instagram one! You can literally make any kind of book you want. Recipe book, cat book, gardening book...Um, can you tell I'm excited?

Additional Entries: *please leave a separate comment for each entry*
1. Spread the word about the giveaway. If you tweet make sure you include @loveelycia & @BlurbBooks along with a link to this post.

I will announce the winner on June 13th! Good luck!

  1. Amazing! I think I'd make a standard landscape cookbook. I currently have a super strict health diet and would love to make a book with all the recipes I've found that work well for me:)

  2. What!? What a great giveaway! I've been meaning to also make a wedding album (ours is sad, sad, sad) and I've been compiling photos for several other books I've been meaning to make. Okay so if I were to win I would first make a wedding book because it's been 11 years since that wonderful day and we need a gorgeous book to commemorate it! I'd make a large square for us and small square for our parents. Love the Blurb sight by the way! Thanks!

  3. I think I would definitely want to make an instagram book - I have so many photos on instagram but they're square so that's weird to get them printed out some other way !!!1

  4. I can't enter, being from the UK, but just thought I'd let you know about those shoes.

    You might know this already but they are Vivienne Westwood for Melissa. I know it's too late to get married in them now but just thought I'd let you know in case you wanted to get yourself a pair!

  5. Oh sweet - something for the Canadians! And how awesome are these books? I love the idea of making my own notebooks, in both trade and paperback sizes - I'd include fun graphics and writing prompts... or maybe some favourite photos. So many possibilities!

    ReplyDelete
  6. I would make a notebook with pictures and stories from my adventures in Northern Canada last year. This is actually a really great giveaway and even if I don't win, I might have to execute my idea. Either way, thanks for the opportunity!!

    Also, yes please on the failed sarcasm party!

  8. Oh my gosh there are too many choices! I would either make myself a lovely planner for all my blogging/life scheduling, or I would love to make a cookbook with my own recipes & photos in it! The possibilities are endless!!

  11. Oh my goodness! Blurb!! I've been super creeping their site for awhile now and had already planned on making our wedding album/book with them once the time has come :)

    My fiance and I are getting married in Jamaica in 2014 and I definitely want to use one of the landscape hardcover books for a display of our wedding & honeymoon photos!

    Now to choose wether or not to use regular photos or have it as an Instagram one... hmm ;)

  13. Hi Elycia! A cat book is a great idea, but I think I'd make a dog book instead :P

  16. I would either make 1) an instagram book or 2) a travel book with all my photos from my PEI trip or 3) BOTH!

  18. Woohoo a giveaway for Canadians! haha, awesome. I would love to do a small square book for instagram pics!

  19. I agree, finally, a giveaway we Canadians can enter! I would love to make a travel blurb book, a way to remember all the trips my fiance and I have taken, especially now that we're starving students and can't afford to eat anything but ramen noodles, let alone fly away somewhere!

  23. This is so timely! I am looking into having a Paris-related photo book done at Blurb and hello, here you are doing a giveaway! And it's open for Canadians! I hope this means I'll get lucky ;)

  25. I would love to make one with some of my Instagram photos, or maybe one of my kids, I haven't really taken or printed many of them recently so it would be good incentive while they're still little.

  26. And I tweeted the giveaway [and forgot my email in my previous comment, oops!] http://twitter.com/tinakeightley/status/210565131476807683

  27. I think I'd make a book of our recent trips to Chicago. I did start scrapbooking them, but really, I have 600 pictures and scrapbooking it all is not going to happen. Yay for blurb having a giveaway for Canadians!!

    ReplyDelete
  28. This is so cool! I think I'd probably do a wedding book or a cook book. Unfortunately, my photos of my cooking are more book-worthy than my wedding photos! Hehehe Or maybe do one of our up-coming camping trip... hmmmm....

  31. I think I"d make a book about me and title it, "The Evolution of Evelyn". I know, I'm just weird like that. Thanks for a fun giveaway!

  32. I'm 100% certain I'd make a book chronicling the adventures of Super Mario and his main man Luigi based on claymation photos taken by me during my bout with insomnia back in '94.

  33. Oh lovely! I would make a book with all the recipes i've tried and liked, including some from my grandma. The standard landscape book can be perfect for that. What a super cool giveaway!
