Why? I can hear you ask, am I talking about Father's Day now? I mean it's not until flicks hastily through diary to check until the 5th of September!
Bear with me.
Firstly some context. I am so unbelievably grateful my father is alive to celebrate Father's Day with this year. His triple bypass last year was a salutary reminder that we should be grateful every day. However, when it comes to days like this I find it hard to buy a gift that is unique or memorable.
This year he is getting a photo book. A proper photo book that looks something like this. My brothers and I are compiling photos of ourselves and our various offspring and we are making it into a special book.
The reason we are creating something so innovative is because I was recently contacted by a company called Blurb and asked if I would be interested in creating a photo book. You know the beautiful ones that some people not me have in their homes showcasing their family, their renovation projects or photography work in a really attractive way?
Thanks to Blurb I am getting to join their ranks. And so are you.
The good people at Blurb have given me FIVE of their beautiful photo books to giveaway valued at over $50 EACH.
The book can be between 20-40 pages (that's lots of photos!) printed on premium paper, will have a hardcover wrap and they have kindly included free shipping to you as well.
How gorgeous is that?
Now because they need a few weeks to get your books together I'm running this giveaway over the next week.
Once I've chosen the five winners I'll send you your login details so you can design your books and email them off for professional printing.
I hasten to add that while I think this would be a wonderful gift for Father's Day I am aware that this may not be what you would like to use the book for. There are a myriad of other things you may choose to use the book for. Please don't let this preclude you from entering. If you'd like this as a way to create memories of a fabulous holiday, your wedding day or precious childhood photos that's wonderful.
If you'd like to enter to win one please make sure you are a) a follower of my blog and b) please leave a comment saying what you think you might use this book for. I'll choose the most creative answer use random integer to choose the lucky winners.
Good luck!
