My regular readers probably saw my blog post a few weeks ago about ScrapWalls, I shared the collage I made, and got one in the mail from them too! Scrapwalls makes collage posters of all sizes. I like mine a lot! Its the XL and it was 36$ ( that's with shipping already included - total cost!) But not all of them are that much, and the one I got is REALLY big. (See prices at bottom of post.)
Here's your chance to win one! This is not a typical giveaway, so make sure to read the whole post .. so you'll know if you are following the rules right!
Scrapwalls.com is a website that lets you upload pictures, make them into a shape collage, and order high-quality prints. You can also share ScrapWalls collages online for free. Each collage can include hundreds of pictures arranged however you like. I really like the Facebook uploader, it is so user friendly! Who doesn't have a million mobile uploads on Facebook that you figured you'd never get to have printed? I don't know about you guys .. but with the more technology the more touch we lose with paper. I am all about sustainability and being green, but I simply cannot make the trade to digital art. I like holding a real book in my hands .. a real photo on my wall. Not a digital photo frame! Some things are better left uncomputerized. But with ScrapWalls your digital images come to life!
The only downside I found is that ScrapWalls server is either slow, or bogged down, or its program doesn't like my computer/browser. I have a Dell Zino w Google Chrome as my browser, and their site fails on me. I have 10mbs internet speed .. so I am not sure, it fails while uploading photos too. I thought it might be a Facebook error, but it also does it when uploading pictures from my computer too. I have noticed that it seems worse on larger pictures.
Try it before you buy it!
You can make your own photo collage free, without even using a CC or paying a dime! You can share it with your friends and family,. and order whenever your ready! Your really just paying for them to print and ship it!
You can also have a title printed onto it. There are so many different ways to go about making one, a lot of options to choose from! They are 30 different shapes and words you can fill in! (I chose heart, with a pink background, and 300 of my Facebook pictures!)
I also think if you want to learn more, you should probably check out ScrapWall's blog. It's got all sorts of interesting information, plus more tips & tricks.
The collage I created!

( See it at that link ^ above! ^ )
Right click the image and open it in a new tab to see it bigger! You can also zoom in to see more detail by holding down the CTRL key and scrolling your mouse trackball upwards.. This was also a size comparison for you. Gigi is really tall for a six year old.
In case you don't win....
Besides winning here- you can "like" them Facebook, and every week, they give away $30.00 to a random Facebook fan. If you don't like taking the time to enter giveaways, and hardly ever win, then you may instead be interested in this deal. Not going on too much longer..
ScrapWalls has a $30 gift card for $15 up on Groupon that goes for 5 more days. It's based out of Boston but anyone can buy: http://www.groupon.com/deals/scrap-walls-boston
How to win?
First you must follow this blog and comment that you want to win! Then, here are the rules direct from the company (& I quote)" (1) Please have you readers Tweet about Scrapwalls using @scrapwalls and #caseycontest, (2) e-mail dhess@scrapwalls.com with the subject "Casey Contest" (3)
or mention us on Facebook to enter. We plan on having the drawing next Wednesday. (7/27) "
So to be more clear, you basically can do all three and each one earns you an extra entry! Please do me a favor, if you want to thank me for this giveaway, and upload your collage you made to my Facebook wall or ScrapWall's Facebook wall.
Feeling frisky? Do both!
How to mention. In case some of you don't already know. A mention on Facebook is done using the @ symbol. You type it into your own status feed. You can do it on someones wall, and it works the same, but for this ScrapWalls wants to share with people who are not aware of them already (your friends) so sharing/mentioning them on their own wall, is not what they are looking for. For those that already know this: Please disregard. :)
Type the @ symbol them without any spaces, start typing "scra.." if you "like" their Facebook page, (HERE!) before you tag them, it will pop up, like in the pic I have below, showing you how to tag!
