***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – scroll down to see who won!***
It’s no mystery that we think silhouettes are a great and graphic spin on the traditional framed family photo. So of course this week’s prize is right up our alley: a customized 8×10 silhouette portrait from Nella Designs.
Nella Designs has a bunch of other fun items in her Etsy shop (like this 2011 desktop calendar that our winners will also be scoring), but it’s these prints made from photos of your family, pet, or even you & your significant other (in your choice of color) that really caught our eye. You can see more of the prints that she’s personalized right here on her blog too.
So here’s how to enter:
- PRIZE: A customized 8×10 silhouette portrait and a 2011 desktop calendar from Nella Designs.
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “CUT ME OUT!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … speaking of cutting things out, what’s one thing you’re trying to cut out of your life (or at least cut down on) in 2011? Trying to ditch a bad habit? Looking limit your time spent in front of the tube? Or maybe you’re cutting out caffeine?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, January 12th at 8pm EST
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: Two
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States and Canada!
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winners will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday morning for the announcement of our winner. Good luck…
******************************

Cut me out!
I’m trying to cut out enough STUFF that I can move anywhere in the US with just my car (or a rented minivan — something I can pack, drive, and unload myself). The goal is NYC, but who KNOWS where this endeavor will take me! I’m giving myself until June, when my current lease runs out. Even if I’m not *100% ready* to make the big move, I can at least move into a small studio apartment and save a TON of money, and pay down my debt, etc.

This year I’m going to cut out all the extra “stuff” in my life and focus on my family. This will include lots of purging, less purchasing, less wanting, and much more of my wonderful husband and wondrous three little ones. Out with the cluttered life and mind and in with the peace and love!

My night-cap! I had gotten into a bad happen of having just one beer or one glass of wine every night with or after dinner. It started adding up to drinking (even though it was just one drink) 5-6 days a week! Need to get out of this habit!

We’re trying to cut down on bare walls! (No, seriously! we moved into our place last May, renovated…who are we kidding, STILL are renovating, and had our wedding!) We have yet to put a thing on the walls (with the exception of paint).
We’d love one of these adorable pieces for our walls.
