Pour Your Heart Out 2nd Anniversary Prizes

I am thrilled that this week marks the two year anniversary of Pour Your Heart Out. Two years of bloggers sharing what is important to them, struggles they are going through, where they stand on important issues, when they are filled with joy: there have been some truly heart-pouring posts linked up!

To celebrate the PYHO anniversary, those of you who link up this week will be eligible for prizes! Only one post should be linked up per blog, please. There are also some prizes for those of you who participate in PYHO other ways, like commenting on posts. There’s even a prize that you can enter to win right in this post!

PYHO link up will open at 10pm ET on Tuesday, March 13th and will close at 11:59pm ET on Thursday, March 15.

Prize 1: Win a Kindle Fire! Whether you use it to read or get apps and play games or go online, one of you will win this tablet! Sponsored by How to Rock Your Blog, which launches later this month and will offer online classes for bloggers. This is Ashley and my latest project and we’d love to have you sign up for our mailing list to keep up with our class announcements(you can find it on the bottom right of our new site). You can also like us on facebook and follow us on twitter. There will be a separate entry form for the Kindle Fire- watch for it tomorrow! This will be both for those who link up for PYHO and those who simply read/comment.

Prize 2 & 3: Have you tried Eyedews yet? This single use under eye treatment will soothe and smooth your beauty woes, and relax and return you to a more energized, youthful state. Two winners will get a chance to try them out! Be sure to check them out on facebook and @eyedews.  They have a twitter party coming up on Friday 03/16 @ 4PM EST that you won’t want to miss!

Prize 4: Who could say no to Marilyn styled bling? This prize is from the darling Nicole at By Word of Mouth Musings where you’ll find such features as Monday Muse, Time Travel Tuesday, and Wordy Wednesday. You can also find her on facebook and twitter.

Prize 5: Divine DigiDesign: Creations by Aramelle Wheeler offers a variety of printable items for all occasions. From invitations, to the day-of decor and games, to the post-celebration thank you cards, Divine DigiDesign will help you to create the perfect theme for any event. The winner will receive a complete party package, including design of invitation, thank you card, return address label, banner, three cupcake topper designs, and two favor tag designs.

Prize 6: A Thirty-One brown soft wallet from Michelle of Bruner Party of Five. She is also throwing in a coupon for $5 off your next purchase. You can find Michelle on facebook  and twitter. She is also the one sponsoring the next prize, too, so be sure to give her lots of love!

Prize 7: Another ffom Michelle: Avon products! Rare Pearls Perfume, Glazewear Dazzle Lipgloss in Pink Radiance, Waterproof Washoff Mascara in Black, and Speed Dry Finger Nail Polish in Fusion (Pink/Mauve color)

Prize 8: If you are looking for a greener way to shop and a personalized shopping experience, look no further than Earth to Alice. They have adorable bags and totes: the winner will get to choose the style and fabric for their tote. Each of Alice’s bags and totes are made with reclaimed coffee bags and will have a one-of-a-kind stamp and print. Be sure to check them out on facebook and twitter, too.

Prize 9: I love Lisa Leonard Designs and this “Connected” Necklace is perfect for Pour Your Heart Out.  Though I’m going to drop major hints to Hubs that I want the Molded Heart Necklace for Mother’s Day. You can like Lisa Leonard Designs on facebook and sign up for the newsletter: they send out exclusive deals and sneak peeks! You can also use coupon code shopping20 for 20% off anything in the shop thru March 20th.

Prize 10: Did you know that it was while I was at Bloggy Bootcamp Baltimore a little over two years ago that I made the decision to go ahead and launch PYHO? In 2012, SITS Bloggy Bootcamp is making stops in St. Louis, Philadelphia, Dallas, and Las Vegas. One of you will win a conference pass to the stop of your choice! Keep in mind that this is pass only: travel expenses, etc. are up to you. Though this giveaway is in celebration of PYHO, anyone can enter!

    It’s been a while for me, but I always read Marti’s PYHO post. I think I’ll jump in this week (and not just for the chance at the Kindle Fire…although that would be awesome to win). I’ve had some “stuff” on my mind and need a purge. Thanks for giving us a venue.

    I actually have something this week.  It will be going up tomorrow…as long as I can get it done today.  It’s something that’s going to be hard to write…both emotionally and technically.

    Shell, I am so proud of you. For this. For Rock Your Blog. {love the “other half media”}. For all that you do, for so many.

    LOVE!

    That fire would be a SUPAH addition to our family. And the necklace? I think it was 2 or 3 mother’s days ago, I wanted a LL necklace. Badly. So I linked Mr. Kiss – along with “you have to order by XX to get it here by M-Day!”

    Heh.

    • Shell says

      March 13, 2012 at 12:29 pm

      Thank you so much, my friend!

      I’m thinking of doing the same with hubs for mother’s day. Or just ordering it myself and telling him hey look what you got me!

    You never cease to amaze me…not only do bring women together, offer support to them, allow them to support one another, provide them a spring board for sharing and healing and finding strength but you do ALL that while being a mother, a wife, a blogger, A WOMAN…..without a cape. :O)

    And now you’re offering prizes. You have so many awesome things in the works…each one you very much deserve (times ten thousand). I wish you so much continued success with everything and thank you for paying it forward and continuing to share with US.

    Really.

    Oops, well I tried to go back in to the Bloggy Bootcamp giveaway thingy and complete some more of the entries, but either it starts over every day with 12 new possible entries or it doesn’t recognize that I’ve already done a few of them. I’m new at this! Not trying to cheat!

    I love that connected necklace…. I am not a huge jewelry fan, but it communicates exactly what I am embracing on my PYHO this week.  So perfect…the other prizes would not be turned down either.  I’m just sayin… Shell, thanks for all your hard work when it’s your anniversary! Great fun.

  48. Brie Guzik says

    March 14, 2012 at 5:32 am

    Doesn’t seem that Bloggy Bootcamp will -ever- come to Hawaii. *sigh* At least if I snag that ticket then I’ll probably be able to fly to the mainland to make it 😉

  49. Angie Kinghorn says

    March 14, 2012 at 4:17 pm

    Shell, happy anniversary and congratulations to you!  You’ve brought so much to so many through PYHO.

    Your prizes look wonderful.  I’ve got my eye on that Kindle Fire….  🙂
