Happy Birthday to The Downtown Boutique -- Day 2

Today is Day 2 of our week long giveaway for our birthday/anniversary celebration.

Today we are giving away one of my own creations from our Etsy shop, Photo Greetings:

A Photo Greeting Valentine Design.
Our photo greetings are easy and convenient for any busy family. All you have to do is pick your design, email me your high resolution photos and the text for your card, and then print them at your favorite photo processing center (such as Shutterfly, Costco, Walmart, etc.), on your own schedule! How cool is that?!

Not only do we do Valentine Photo Greeting cards, but we also do Birth/Adoption Announcements, Shower Invitations, Birthday Invitations, Memorial Cards, Graduation Announcements, "Change of Address" Announcements, "Save the Date" Announcements, Holiday Cards, and anything else that you celebrate in your life. We have loads of premade designs to choose from, but if you don't see exactly what you're looking for, we are also glad to do custom designs such as THIS ONE that we did for a customer who requested it.

You can choose a family style Valentine design, or one that can be cut in half and used for classroom Valentine's Day parties (for teachers AND the kids). We'll even pop your pet's photo into the design if that's your choice.

To enter: Please visit Photo Greetings and let us know which design is your favorite, not including the one shown. It doesn't have to be Valentine themed. Please be sure to leave a valid email address.

For an additional entry, you can blog about this giveaway. Please be sure to leave a separate comment with the link to your blog post.
