Today, February 25th, we are Giving Away... (PRIZE CLAIMED)


A $30.00 Gift Certificate to the Delightful Etsy Shoppe Whimsy Creations

If you are a mom, dad, grandma, auntie, or a person who likes to celebrate special occasions, you are going to want to enter to win our fun giveaway from Whimsy Creations. Today we are giving away your choice of any of Whimsy Creation’s enchanting products (up to $30.00) found here.


If you are our winner, you can spend your gift certificate on a charming banner. How fun would it be to hang an adorable “Happy Birthday” banner to let everyone know that it is someone’s special day?


Or you can choose a holiday banner to add just the right touch to your holiday home décor. Each of Whimsy Creation’s banners is one-of-a-kind. Whimsy Creations is an affordable place to purchase a whimzical banner that you will be able to display for years to come.

Today there are three ways to enter to win the $30.00 gift certificate to Whimsy Creations.

For one entry leave your first and last name in a comment.
Example: Jane Doe

For a second entry visit Whimsy Creation’s website here. Look at all of their lovely products. Then come back to Give Away Today and in a NEW comment tell us your first and last name and the name of the product(s) you would like if you win (remember up to $30.00 please). Example: Jane Doe: White Happy Birthday Banner

For a third entry, I love learning about the visitors of Give Away Today, so in a NEW comment tell me your first and last name and one of your favorite signs, t-shirts, bumper stickers, or billboards that you have seen.
Example: Jane Doe: When I was twenty-one I ran in the St. George Marathon with my roommate Jen. Along the marathon route we were surprised to see our other roommate’s parents who had come to support us. They were holding a sign that read “Good Job, Girls! And don’t worry, toenails are overrated!” (Just in case you are not a runner, your toenails will sometimes fall off after a marathon, which in this case, I did lose my left big toenail after the race. So not only was their sign cute, but it was also prophetic :)

The winner of the $30.00 gift certificate to Whismy Creations will be announced Thursday, February 26th. Please visit us then to see if you are our winner and to check out our new giveaway for the day. Thanks!

I think the answer is yes.

Ilena said...

ilena corr - they've just put up a street sign on the way to my daughter's preschool. It's to alert for a serious road bump. the sign simply says "dip" It cracks me up. I've got to remember to bring the camera tomorrow and am going to put it on my blog with the tag "I am trying not to take this personally" or something to that effect.

Shauna K Brown: Before I met my husband, he had been mountain biking one summer at Pomerelle in Idaho. (During winter it is a ski resort.) He found one of their signs from the ski lift broken on the ground. It said "Prepare to Unload". He never did anything with it but when we got married he hung it proudly in the bathroom over the toilet! We have since gotten rid of it but it still makes me laugh!

Shane Hilton: In the very small town where my grandparents have a vacation home, there is a faded mural painted on the side of the town store/post office/gas station. It's a really old ad for overalls and has a farmer wearing them and bending over and it says, "Room for the BIG DEEP BEND!" We get a big kick out of it!

When my niece graduated from High School, some of her friends put up a sign on the school lawn that said "Go Sarah, Rock On!" When graduation was over, she wanted he mom and dad to take it home--all they had was a small BMW! So my husband, her dad (who was driving), her uncle, and grandpa all got in the car and hung onto while it was sitting on top of the car! It was such a funny sight. . . luckily her house was only a few blocks away.
