It is time again to feature another blogger in the “Day In My-Not-So-Hip-Life” series!
This week’s blogger is Kim Prince from House of Prince. This lady has been blogging since 2004! I think that we should all do some sort of virtual bow to her right now. Commencing bow….
Her blog is chock full of goodies and her kids, well, they are a-dor-a-ble. Truly. When you hop over there, be sure to check out this post on 10 Tips For Survival at BlogHer 2010. Loved it! This is my first year going so it was much needed, let me tell you!
Okay, without further adieu, here is a fabulous day in the life of Kim Prince:

DO YOU WANT TO WIN A SPONSORSHIP TO BLOGHER 2010?

Well, then it is time to speak up and start talking about SEED!
SEED Power (a line of all natural body care) is providing some lucky ladies with the chance to attend BlogHer 21010 in NYC with their fabulous SEEDS OF INSPIRATION contest. Not only will the winner receive a $250 CASH sponsorship, but they will also be VIP guests at an exclusive, swanky NYC PAR-TAY the Friday night of the convention. (And let me tell you – from what I hear it will be FAB-U-LOUS!)
HERE IS HOW ENTER THE SEEDS OF INSPIRATION BLOGHER 2010 SPONSORSHIP CONTEST:
Visit the Seed Website and read about the products and the founder’s story.
Write a blog post about how the products, philosophy or owner’s story INSPIRE YOU to nurture your own entrepreneurial spirit, live a more organic lifestyle OR make a more positive environmental impact! The post must include a link to the SEED website within it and a mention and link back to this contest to be considered. Then come back to Hip As I Wanna Be and link up!
A COUPLE OF OTHER RULES, BABY:
All contestants must ALSO complete the following steps for their entry to be considered:
- Visit the SEED website and join their community via email
- Follow @SeedPower on Twitter
- Tweet the following “I’m inspired by @SEEDpower & the SEEDs of Inspiration #blogher10 #sponsorship contest http://bit.ly/b2oQDM #pickmeseed”
- Become a fan of SEED on FaceBook
{And don’t forget to leave a comment letting the contest host (ME!) know you completed these steps}
Submit your entry via Mr. Linky below and then you are done!
BUT THERE IS ONE MORE THING, LADIES... The fact that you can enter to win once a week until the contest closes. Just create a new post, link up again and tweet! The coolness, never ends does it? And if you want extra chances to win in a different way, you can enter each week over at Chicken Nuggets of Wisdom (Whrrl contest) and Makeover Momma (Vlog contest) as well.
Each entry must be unique and not simply the submission of the previous week’s entry.
Winners who have followed the submission rules will then have their entries judged by SEED on the following criteria: creativity, originality, interpretation of the theme.
SEED Power Body Care will choose the winner of the contest as well as several other winners who will get invitations to the swank-tastic invite only party being hosted on Saturday August 5th, 2010 by SEED. BTW – Hip As I Wanna Be, though partially sponsored to BlogHer 2010 by SEED, will have no part in the selection process and is simply hosting this contest.
Contest ends March 31, 2010 at 11:00 p.m. PST. Winners will be announced on the SEED website on or about April 9, 2010. (But it might be a good idea to follow “me” on Twitter and fan Hip As I Wanna Be on Facebook to make sure you are up to date on the contest 411.)
AND…. because they are a truly fabulous company, Seed is also offering the readers of Hip As I Wanna Be a discount on their products. To order some fabulous products using your special discount code, click here.
NOTE: I AM A TECHNO MORON! For some reason the comments are closed. Just email me at jlgerlock@comcast.net and I will make sure SEED gets them!
