Hobo Mama Giveaway: Amy Adele Children's Stationery — $50 credit {8.19; US}

This giveaway is now closed. View the winner here! Thank you all so much for entering!



Special notification! I've extended the giveaway through August 19 to allow my Hobo Mama readers to get in their bonus entries.

I have great news for all of you! The husband-and-wife team of Amy Adele were so happy that all of us loved their children's stationery that I highlighted in my earlier review that they're offering one of my readers a $50 credit toward anything at AmyAdele.com!

All you have to do is enter in the comments below, and you'll have a chance to win $50 toward your purchase of the cutest kids' stationery ever.

In other words, you could buy up to $50, and it would be completely free, or you could order more and it would function like a $50-off coupon. The winner will receive a special code to enter on the order page. Shipping on orders over $50 is free!

To thank me, they're also offering me a $50 credit, so I can show off some of my new purchases for you in the future!

It's so funny, though, because — I recently spent $50 there. :) No, it's true, of my own hard-earned money I bought these beauties, plus a couple other designs:




Rescue Heroes not included, but the boys were helping me show off the cards.


That's right — they're my new Hobo Mama calling cards! Amy Adele gave me the idea, and I loved it so much I just had to buy a few varieties. Now I'll have something cute and personalized to hand out anytime I meet someone who might enjoy my blog.

What could you get with your $50?

A lot. I was able to buy four different types of calling cards for the $50 I personally spent.

Here are some ideas!



Children's notecards
with your little one's photo



Amy Adele Children's Stationery thank-you card blank

Thank-you cards with pre-filled text
to make
thanking the givers as fun as receiving the present



Artist Pallet Calling Card Playground Calling Card

Personal calling cards to help you arrange play dates or make friends



Arts and Crafts Waterproof Label

Labels (on sale right now through August 3 for 50% off!) —
address labels for envelopes or waterproof labels for anything else! Perfect for labeling clothes, shoes, bags, sippy cups, and bottles for camp, school, or daycare.





Party invitations for those summer birthdays, baby showers, and other events





Birth announcements for your newest addition.
Great for graduations or weddings, too!





To make life easier for you, you can pre-order your envelopes (and personalize them with your return address!)icon to get the addressing done during that looong nesting period. Then you can go back to the site after your baby's born to fill in all the important details! It's a great idea for pre-addressing thank-you notes as well. Isn't that convenient?



Girl's Big Sister T-shirt

Personalized t-shirts and onesies
— clothing is 100% cotton and made sweatshop-free in the USA.




There are so many choices! Have a look around and see what else catches your eye.

You get to fully customize your stationery with numerous charming font choices and your selection of wording. You can preview your item immediately online and easily make any changes.

Remember, Amy Adele can work with you to further customize your stationery for an additional fee if you want a particular design or color changes.

To recap, here are the main reasons I recommend Amy Adele for your children's or personal stationery:

  • High quality printing and paper, with sharp colors and fine detail, even on the photograph cards
  • Super-fast turnaround, and that's for custom stationery!
  • Environmentally friendly details — 100% post-consumer recycled cardstock and biodegradable cornstarch packing peanuts
  • Easy-to-use website that makes it simple to navigate through the huge product selection, choose what you need and any related items, and then customize and preview your design
  • Excellent customer service — I've had no problems at all, but there's a 100% satisfaction guarantee in place if you need it
  • Adorable designs — I mean, seriously, just look at them!

So go enter and win your own Amy Adele stationery!


BUY IT!

Amy Adele has extended the special discount for my readers till the end of August. Just type in hobomama and receive 15% off any regular-priced items. How cool is that!

Regular prices start at around $18.95 for 10 flat cards ($16.11 with the "hobomama" discount), which is approximately $1.90 ($1.61) per card, and once you start increasing the quantity, the per-card price keeps dropping. For instance, 50 cards is $49.95 (or $42.46 with the 15% off), which is down to under $1.00 per card ($0.85 with the coupon code).

All card prices include envelopes, and you can have your envelopes personalized with your return address for a small fee. There are now coordinating envelopes for hundreds of the designs.

Amy Adele has regular sales, so you can always catch a bargain there, too. Just check the sale section for the current deals. For instance, waterproof labels usually start at $12.95 for a sheet of 30, but right now they start at only $6.47.

If you're not buying something on sale, use the hobomama discount code for 15% off. If an item is on sale for more than 15% off, though, that's the better bet!

Want more good news? There's always free Priority Mail shipping on orders over $50! Otherwise, it's a reasonable $7.49 flat rate for Priority Mail. There's also FedEx 2-day shipping available for an additional fee.
