***This giveaway is now closed – see who won below!***
This week’s random winner is… Megan (who simply and politely just entered “Pop me, please”). Congrats Megan!
Hope everyone’s having a great Labor Day! We thought we’d drop in with today’s giveaway and solve the little hint that we gave you in Friday’s post about this week’s prize. The three clues were: soda cans (aka: pop), a canvas, and the fact that the photo was taken in Instagram (hence the border and that signature square size). So, fellow Instagram addicts, this one’s for you. Well, I guess it’s for anyone who takes pictures or generally enjoys putting art on their walls. Canvaspop is the first company to specialize in turning Instagram photos into high-quality, UV-protected, scratch-proof matte finish canvases. And they’re giving one of you $300 to turn your Instagram dreams into wall art reality. And if you don’t dream in Instagram, they can take any other photos too – including your Facebook pics (and don’t miss the 30% discount code below even if you don’t take home the prize).
- PRIZE: A $300 credit to spend at Canvaspop
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “POP ME” and tell us…
- BONUS QUESTION: … what your favorite photo is (Instagram or otherwise) from your adventures this summer. Did you capture a killer view on your vacation? Or get a hilarious snapshot of your kids playing in the pool? Or maybe you snagged an artsy angle of some iconic summer imagery – like a beach or a sunset? hot dogs on the grill? a kite flying high in the air?
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, Sept 5th at 8pm EST or at 10,000 entries (whichever comes first)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: The United States & Canada
- DISCOUNT: 30% off custom canvas art with code code YHL30 (valid through Dec. 31, 2012).

Sara R. says
Pop Me!
My favorite photo that I/my mom took was a maternity shot of myself with my little two year old son kissing my belly. I set my mom up to take the picture, all she had to do is press the shutter button numerous times. The sun was setting behind us and was reflecting on the lake at my parents house. This caused my son and I to show up in the picture as silhouettes. It was awesome! We’ve had so many compliments on it!
Carollyn says
Pop me! My favorite photo is of my kids on the dock at Big Bear Lake playing with some baby ducklings. It is simply darling and I would print it on these canvases if I win!
Kristen J. says

Amanda Ryan says
POP ME!

Lisa says
Pop me! I took a photo of my daughter, who is 2, running away from the dog in the yard, holding his ball and wearing nothing but giant, orange, adult sized Garfield slippers. It is awesome.

casey says
POP ME.
My favorite photo was this perfect “hey chumps” expression I captured on my 5 month old son Emmitt’s face at a rest stop on the way home from a camping trip. I diligently uploaded it when we got home from our trip. He died of SIDs the next day… 3 weeks ago. It is the most perfect photo of the duality of his personality. He had expressions beyond his years.
Rachelle says
POP ME!
OK, this is sad, but I don’t think I’ve taken any pictures this summer. I’ve been studying for a horrible, yucky test for work. But, pre-summer we took a trip to New Zealand and Fiji, and I have some awesome-sauce pictures from there!
Scott says
POP ME!
I snapped a cool graphic-art/abstract looking picture of the bottom of a beer mug, full of amber beer with cool light rays at a summer wedding (really it’s cooler looking then it sounds).

POP ME
I am particularly proud of the snap I got of our neighbor racing his dragster at the local raceway this summer. I actually got a picture of it with the front wheels popped slightly off the ground. Apparently, that takes a lot of skill or as I told him a serious dose of luck.
Michelle says
POP ME My favorite instagram pic is of our puppy chewing on her new toy. Such a determined face!
Kelly says
Pop me! Pics from a vacation out east this summer!
Kari says
Pop me! My favorite picture is of the tents from Cirque du Soleil. I love Instagram SO HARD, I take pictures every day, usually multiple. I want to do an installation like in the picture very much. I’d link to my favorite picture (on gramfeed.com) but apparently my work doesn’t want me on instagram at work. Whooops! so you can find me as user k4rij34n. :)
Harmony Quiroz says
POP ME – We ended up removing the salmon colored asbestos siding from our house and painting the exterior at the last minute since my Dad had a week left before heading back to work and insisted in get done. Though it was a lot (time and money-wise), it was MUCH cheaper than hiring the professionals, and that first picture I took of our now white with green trim house was all I needed to know how lucky I am to have a Dad who is willing to spend his last bit of free time helping his not so little girl make her first home far more presentable.
Jennifer Smith says
Pop Me! I have a 20 month old, so I have a ton of pictures that I would love to turn into canvas’
KatieJ says
POP ME! My 10th Anniversary photo shoot was the best! My husband surprised me with it – now we have more proof of the fun we have! And the love we share!
Stephanie Fesik says
POP ME!
My fav picture this summer is of the three of us(hubbie,2 yr old daughter and I) holding a baby wallaby at the kangaroo farm, or the one of my daughter passed out in her highchair! First time that happened, yo gabba gabba must not have been very exciting that day. ;)
Kelly says
POP ME! My favorite summer instagram is of our new kitty we found behind the chicken coop in our postage stamp of an urban backyard!
Jayne says
Pop me!
We have a great family pick in the water on the beach in the Bahamas!
Trude says
POP ME! I think my favorite so far this summer has been of the alignment of Jupiter, the moon and Venus during the Perseid meteor shower. It’s really faint because of my iPhone’s quality, but it’s there. So worth getting up at 5am! :)
Vera says
Pop me! My favorite pic from this summer is a lighthouse pic in Maine!

Shannon says
Pop Me!
Favorite photo was a completely random pic I snapped of me and the kiddos at the beach this summer. It was perfect. Everyone is laughing and smooshed together in the pic, with the blue waves crashing behind us — a moment in time that I will cherish forever.
Holli says
pop me! a cool pic of us in front of the little plane my hubby flew us around in : )
Kara says
POP ME!
I have a shot of my son sitting on his tricycle with a popsicle in one hand and a bottle of bubbles in the other, hollering with joy. It’s like the epitome of summer!
Vicky McPhail says
POP ME!
My favourite pic is one I snapped of my 2.5 year old daughter after “helping” her dad in the garden one day while Mummy worked inside. She honestly looked like she was born and bred in the wild, the amount of dirt that covered this child’s face. Nothing a good run in the sprinkler didn’t fix after I got some hilarious photos though!
