giveaways & winners

I just got home from a little place you might recognize as San Francisco. More on that tomorrow.

But first — Today it’s down to business. A little housekeeping. (And fighting a nasty head cold.) We have some winners to announce from the past couple of giveaways!

……………..

Winners of Rebecca Cooper’s photography eBook: FIVE winners, actually! Very cool. PS – If you haven’t stopped by Rebecca’s blog, it’s super delightful. Plus she just did a guest post over at eighteen25 with Halloween picture-taking tips. Perfect timing.

1. Anneleen in Zwevezele, Belgium

2. Pam in NW Arkansas

3. Melinda in Fessenden, ND

4. Kate in Singapore (but posted from Australia)

5. Jackie in Raymond, AB Canada

Winners, email cooper.rr@gmail.com.

……………..

Winner of a ticket to attend the Creative Estates conference in April: Heidi Ferguson who “sews and quilts”. Congratulations, Heidi! We’ll see you in April. Send an email to creativeestatesconf@gmail.com. Be sure to check out the agenda, which is now posted.

……………..

Heck. Let’s do another giveaway today!

Anna Aspnes is re-running a popular class, AlbumMagic, at ReneePearson.com next month (November 8 – 28) and wants to give away a seat to one of my readers. The class teaches the process of putting together a cohesive album. You can read the full details about the class here.

Is this up your alley? You know the drill. Leave your name and a brief comment and someone’s going to get a free seat in Anna’s virtual class.

  1. Jenni says:

    I’d love to take that class. I’ve been thinking about putting together some albums for the grandmas for Christmas but I don’t know where to start. This class sounds like it would help me get that started and completed in time for Christmas!

    A class from Anna Aspnes? Holy cow! I would love that! That girl has some wicked skills.

  4. Katy says:

    Yes! I NEED THIS! My books are so non-cohesive and haphazard!

  5. Paula says:

    This class would be amazing!!! I’m trying to work on our honeymoon book and it’s just all over the place – would definately appreciate some major direction. Thanks for the chance!

  6. Nicky Hurt says:

    I had my hands on that “purchase” button a couple of times for this class, but Renee Pearson’s prices have gone through the roof, so unless I win it somewhere, I won’t be taking this class! A substitute special ed teacher’s aide doesn’t make that kind of cash!! ;)

It is called Fort Point & is directly UNDER the GG on SF side. It is an old 4 story fort that is open to public & has tours etc. The kids loved it. The pictures were so neat & wow did you feel the pacifc. Just a tidbit for next trip :) I added a few pictures on my blog & here is the link if you wanted

  124. Shaui says:

    thanks for the chance to win!!!

  125. Valerie says:

    That’s so funny you were just in San Fran. I was there for the first time last Tuesday (19th). It was very foggy the day we were there and COLD. We were only there for a day so just rode the trolley, went to Fisherman’s Warf, drove across the bridge and checked out Chinatown. My pictures of the bridge are kind of cool-it’s shrouded in fog and the top of one of the arches is sticking up out of a cloud. We said later we wished we’d had time to ride bikes across the bridge.

  138. fulltime mom says:

    Oh, this class is definitely something i would love to be part off. Thanks for the chance to win!

  139. Angela Orgill says:

    I would love to be a part of this class. I will try to save up and attend even if I don’t win this give away. My dad has the big C (this time worse than the last bout) and my mom is having the family take a group picture in November.

    She has been begging (since 2007) for one of us kids to put together a printed family picture scrap book, for them, as a gift. Last year I bought Photoshop Elements 8, but I have been nervous to try such a big project. This class looks like an excellent way to get up the courage to create my digital masterpiece. Okay, my first attempt at a digital creation.

    I’m sure whoever wins will be grateful and learn much. Thank you for the chance to win and hope you get better soon. Have a wonderful day.
    Angela

  140. Skrapkitty says:

    I was all prepared to leave a “pick me – pick me” post, when I saw the comment from Angela Orgill. My heart goes out to her and her family as they deal with her father’s illness. So rather than leaving a request for myself, I would like to put my comment in for her instead – please pick Angela~!!!
