The Big 2009 Card Design Contest!
Â
- This year’s card design contest is SO random! Read below for all the contest details.Â
Above, the front of my family’s New Year’s card featured Kaptain Karl on the cover of the magazine, “Karl’s Life.” The type says, “Photo shoot special! Kaptain Karl as Darth Kittius.” (He makes that face you know.) Then along the bottom are pictures of Bradley, Mike and Gregory. The small type says, “INSIDE: Kaptain Karl and 3 men take on the mamarazzi. Find out who wins the intergalactic battle.”
Â
- The inside revealed the conquering king, Kaptain Karl, along with some random pictures of the guys.
Â
- And finally, on the back, some pictures of my family, taken by my photo assistant, Gabriel Francobandiero. Thanks, Gabe!

2009 CONTEST DETAILS
- I will begin posting the rest of my holiday card designs this week.Â
The winner will be chosen at random from all comments on the card designs. The more often you comment, the more times your name gets put in the hat!
THE BIG PRIZE: The winner will receive a $300 credit to be used in my online store. You could use your credit toward prints, wall canvasses or albums. Or, you could use your credit toward a 2009 photo session or as a session gift credit for a friend!
I will accept comment posts on each design for one week. Comments must be legitimate and unique. I reserve the right to delete any comments that seem repetitive, copied or insincere. One comment per legitimate e-mail address per day will be counted. If you comment on one card design, feel free to leave a response comment, but only one of your posts will be counted for each design.
NOTE: In the “name” field, you may list your initials, your first name, or a nickname. I will know who you are by your e-mail address.
Don’t leave your comment here though. Be sure to go back to the specific card design that you meant to comment on! (Click “back” on your browser.)
Bookmark the blog and THANKS for visiting!
Happy New Year!
Oh by the way, AWESOMENESS ALERT! The family that receives the most comments on their card design will win a family session for 2009. Woo hoo! Let the comments begin!
