Pin To Win Banner

Pssst, Mixbookers! Have you noticed? All our card and calendar theme pages have gotten a shiny new button – the ever so popular “Pin It” button!

Cards and Calendars

In honor of this new feature, we’ve decided to launch a Pin It to Win It Contest.

What can you win?
One lucky grand prize winner will be selected to receive a $100 Mixbook gift card!
But that’s not all!
We’re going to give away 5 additional $20 gift cards! That’s 6 chances to win and $200 worth of Mixbook gift cards up for grabs!

How do you enter?
Entering is easy and only takes three steps:

  1. Create a new board titled “A Few of My Favorite (Mixbook) Things” and pin your favorite card or calendar design
  2. Repin our contest pin onto the same board
  3. Post the URL to your board as a comment on our contest pin

But wait, there’s more!
You can enter ten (10) additional times by pinning 10 more of your favorite card or calendar designs onto that same board.

This contest ends on October 11, at 11:59PM PST so don’t delay – pin your favorites today and get entered for a chance to win!

Want to see a sample of what your board could look like? Head on over to A Few of Our Favorite (Mixbook) Things to take a look!

[update: If you are unable to post your board's URL to our contest pin, please leave your board's URL in the comments section below. Good luck!]

*A unique entrant is defined as one board per Pinterest account.
**No purchase necessary to win. Contest begins on 9/27/12 at 12:01AM PST. Winners will be selected at random. Winners will be notified no later than October 25th, 2012 by 11:59PM PST and will have 48 hours to claim their gift card.

I am confused about the “Pin it to Win it” contest. Are you talking about pinning your own favorite
designs you have done, or ones from your website that either mixbook has done, or other people?
Please clarify.

Hi Martha,
You’ll want to pin the Mixbook designs. Simply browse the site and use the “Pin It” button found on the pages of our calendar and card designs. Take a look at out sample board mentioned above to see what we’re looking for. :) We hope this helps! Good luck!

Hi I’m trying to comment on the contest pin with my boards URL and it keeps telling me its spam and won’t post it. How can I enter with this issue?

It says that we must redeem the gift card within 48 hiours??? Does that mean that we have to use the credit right away or can it be stored in our account? Not that I am saying I am going to win. Just curious!
Thanks! Heidi

I have already made my Christmas cards using this design. I haven’t picked out the calendar for 2013. And of course I will do another photo book year in review!

Hi Leslie,
Go ahead and post your URL here and we’ll have a copy of your entry. Good luck!

Hi Heidi,
Winners must claim their gift card within 48 hours. Once winners have been messaged, they will have two days to e-mail us to receive their prize. The actual expiration of the gift card will vary. We hope this answers your question! Good luck!

I LOVE Mixbook! The details that I can put into the books are incredible! I have used the other sites, but will NEVER use those again!!! I LOVE the way my books turn out from Mixbook! I recommend it to all the brides I know! Our Wedding book turned out so awesome! We show everyone!!!! Thanks Mixbook!

As far as the 10 extra entries go, do we post those ten additional links onto the Pin It to Win It page, too?

Elle Daquioag October 2, 2012 at 6:29 am

Hi Racheal,
Your 10 extra entries should be pinned onto the same “A Few of my Favorite (Mixbook) Things” board. Because they are all on the same board, we will only need one link to that specific board. Once the contest is over, we will review the boards to see if additional designs were pinned for extra entries. We hope this helps and good luck!
