Bloggy Giveaways Carnival - Quiet Time Gift Basket

Posted by Amber

**This giveaway is now closed.**

Welcome all Bloggy Giveaway Participants! This is my secondary blog, still relatively new, growing as I find my footing for what I want to say, what I want to do. Take a look around, leave me a comment or two, visitate a little if ya will. Feel free to stop by my main blog, too, if ya like.

To give away something that represents myself and my blog, I’m offering up as my first giveaway a quiet time gift basket –including a devotional, a journal, some pens and highlighters, plus a few more fun things to be determined at my whim. I’ll upload a picture once I get everything together.

This giveaway is open to U.S. and Canadian residents alike. All you have to do to enter is:

1. Browse through my recent posts to find the answer to these questions (you won’t have to go far):

  • How many Haiku poems did I write for Robin’s challenge?
  • What movie did I recently draw an unlikely analogy from?
  • What is my favorite scripture passage?

2. Leave the answers in the comments on this post before 10pm CST on Friday, April 25th.

3. Don’t forget to fill in the email field in the comment form so that I can contact you if you win. You do not need to have a blog to enter, you only need a valid email address. You do want to be notified if you win, don’t you??

4. During the course of the giveaway carnival, do not forget to check your spam email folder frequently, to prevent “lost” winning notifications. Spam folders are great but they sure are great at eating up “winner!” emails!!

5. Winner will be chosen from the eligible comments by random generator after 10pm CST April 25th and immediately notified. The winner will have 3 days to respond with shipping information or a new winner will be chosen for the sake of all that is fair and good in bloggy giveaway carnival goodness.

So that’s it! Off you go now… Find the answers and then go visit some more blogs. Yay!

NOTE: Good point, Robin! No cheating! You can’t look at the comments first, so be a good sport!

  1. Robin (PENSIEVE) Said,

    Ahhh! THAT was a surprise (the mention of my name) and I’m like, “I KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT!!!” HA! Cute way to get us to read a few of your sweet posts :).

    a) (shhhh, 3)

    b) Psalm 18

    c) Star Wars

    But now I’m wondering, will others see these in comments first and not read themselves??? Hmmm.

    GREAT prize pack, btw…I wasn’t able to upload pics yet, Typepad was just too darn slow!

    But, I’m giving away stuff daily this week, so stop by as you’re able :).
