And The Winner Is....

To try to make things as fair as possible, I wrote each name on a piece of paper (or two or three if you did any of the extra entries).

Then I folded them up and put them in my husband's bowler hat:

Then my beloved husband played Vanna White for me.

And the WINNER IS:

DOMINIQUE RUDEGEAIR!!!!

Dominique, you have 48 hours to claim your prize!

Thank you ALL for helping me brighten a dear friend's weekend!

A Just Because Type of Give Away!

     Want to win a hat of your choice from my shop?  Here's how!

    First, a little background:  The above is one of my favorite photos.  I love everything about it.  It was taken by the absolutely fantastic Danielle of Remember When Family Photo, LLC.  Not only am I privileged to get gorgeous photos of my work from this amazingly talented lady, but I'm incredibly privileged to call her my friend.

    Now on to the give away!  Here's what you have to do:

1. You must like (or already be a fan) of my Facebook page:  www.facebook.com/A.Lil.Loopy.
2. You must like (or already be a fan) of Remember When Family Photography, LLC on Facebook:  www.facebook.com/rememberwhenfamilyphoto and you must show her some <3 while you're there (and why not book a photo shoot with her if you live in her area - not a requirement for the give away - but you won't regret it if you do).
3. You must comment here, on my blog, that you have followed steps 1 & 2.  Please message me via Facebook if you are having trouble commenting here.

Extra entry #1:  Share this on your Facebook page for an extra entry - make sure your share is set to "public" so that I can verify this step!

Extra entry #2:  Become a follower of my blog.

    I will randomly select a winner on Monday, July 23rd, at 8:00 p.m. CST.  The winner will then have 48 hours to claim their prize.

It's My Birthday!

Today is my birthday!!!

Happy birthday to me!!!

I thought that since I'm having such a fantastic day, I'd share a bit of that with all of you!  So I'm having a little give away.

The Rules:

1.  You must like my Facebook page:  www.facebook.com/A.Lil.Loopy

2.  You must show some love to Jaimie over at Once Upon a Dream Photography (she's responsible for the adorable photo above):  www.facebook.com/onceuponadreamphotos

3.  You must share this blog post on your page - please make sure to set that post to public so that I can see it!

4.  You must comment here - on my blog - saying that you've completed these steps.  You can post anonymously - that's fine.  If you have trouble posting, let me know please.

The Prize:

I will use random.org to select a winner.  That person will receive their choice of hat from my shop.  If we make it to 100 entries, I'll draw for a second winner (now you know why you're sharing on your page)!

I'm going to leave this contest open until Tuesday, April 17th at 8:00 p.m. CST.

Good luck!
