It’s no joke! I’ve got an amazing Giveaway from Blurb today. 10 lucky winners will each receive a $50 gift certificate to make their very own book (and with prices starting at $4.95, your gift certificate will ensure you can make something fabulous, right?). I love browsing the Blurb books to see the beautiful creations made by people all over the globe. Cookbooks, photo journals, baby books, wedding books — even novels.
If you wanted, you could also use Blurb’s handy tools to make your blog into a book. And then order a copy for your Mom. Because you know she wants one. Which reminds me: how about making a book especially for Mother’s Day?
What kind of book would you make?
Enter the giveaway by leaving a comment below. The 10 winners will be announced on Monday. Good luck! I hope you win. Note: I’ll reach out to the winners using the email address they list when they comment.

I’ve used blurb many times before— I was just sharing with my barista today— they are great and INEXPENSIVE alternative for coffee table books. If I won I would make 5×5 COLOR books for each of my kiddos. THANKS FOR OFFERING this give-a-way! :)

I LOVE Blurb books! We made wedding albums for our parents as Christmas gifts this past year and are planning to do a larger, more complete one for ourselves. But if I win, I’m planning to use the GC for a book I’ve been working on since we bought our house. It’s essentially a diary of the first year in our first home, detailing all the changes we’ve made and all the hard work we’ve done, because when the house is finally “finished”, it’ll be so nice to look back and see how far we’ve come!
Awesome! I’d love to win!
I have long desired to make a book of my families stories. I would call the book “No Ordinary Stories” because I believe that EVERYONE’S stories matter. I love this idea (of a blurb book) and will have to check it out!
I did a Blurb blog book for my 2008 and really, really need to get on getting 2009 done and published!!
My students have used Blurb for a school project and the results were amazing. Also, they have great customer service. We ran into a small problem and they fixed it right away and shipped new books out immediately.
Wow. Love this idea. Never heard of the company, but i’m intrigued with the blog to book idea. Cool!
Great timing for me–my Denver pictures are starting to pile up and need to be organized into a book!
Not to beg, but I’d be beaming to have a book of my blog from Blurb.
With my daughter’s first birthday approaching, I’d chronicle her first year!
Never seen this before – what a great gift idea!
I love Blurb! They have such a beautiful product for an affordable price! I need to make my 2009 blog book…so I guess I will keep my fingers crossed that I am one of the lucky 10!
What a fabulous giveaway! I have been meaning to make a book from my family blog–this would be perfect!
I would love to make one chronicling my second (and almost definitely last) pregnancy. I’m just barely into it now so it would be the perfect time to start. :)
Hi! I have seen these books before and have been meaning to do one for a while. I would definitely make it for my one-year old son! I have tons of pictures, but they are all over the place. I would love to document his first year all in one book.
I have been commenting here for years. I have yet to win something. ! Come on change my attitude and PICK ME!

I love blurb! I made a family cookbook with recipes from my grandmothers, mother, sisters and me – then gave them out as Christmas presents. Being able to self-publish books is a wonderful thing.

ooohhh!!! i would really like to win this! i made a blurb book from my blog for Christmas presents one year. thanks for the offer!
I would FINALLY print our wedding album. I design an album for my best fried to give to her family for Christmas and blurb did a fantastic job printing. I’ve been meaning to get our album taken care of for a while and $50 from blurb might just be the motivation I need.
These books are beautiful!
I would love to win this as I am working on a massive “first year” book currently on blurb. This would give me the motivation to finish–as he is coming up on 3 now!
I have so many old photographs of my grandparents that I have been wanting to make a book from. This would be perfect!

I would love to win this!
I’ve been meaning to make one of these for my blog.
I just made a book of my blog, but haven’t purchased yet…this would be perfect!!
Wow, what beautiful books. I’d use it for a personal project. I’m a photographer by trade, and would like to do more creative writing. So I would fill the book with my favorite photos and then bits of my writing.
I also like the idea of an illustrated journal.
I recently downloaded the software and am working on my blurb book{s} I totally need this one!!! You’re awesome Design Mom.
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS!!! It would be an amazing way to share photos with grandparents who live on the other side of the country!
Awesome!! I would make a book or two for my parents/in-laws of our little baby girl!

Love this giveaway. My grandmother is turning 90 this year, and I would love to make her a Blurb book with images of her life and family.
My baby is turning one in a month and it’s about that time to start planning his book! (His six month one was very popular among the grandparents)
Oh my…so awesome!!! This isn’t an April Fool’s joke, is it? :)
I would love this! I’d be forced to get some pictures together in one place, which is so hard for me.
Love Blurb!! Used them for a “best of” recipe scrapbook I made for my bookclub. I am about to start the second book, so this is perfect timing! I also need to print my son’s digital baby book…the projects are endless!
