Molly Monday

by 94 Comments

Hi Guys! 

It’s Molly. I am going to be posting a blog every Monday and calling it Molly Mondays. That way you can just expect a blog from me once a week and the rest will be from Ally! Molly Mondays are going to be packed with all the content that you are telling me you want to see (more quizes, contests, games, polls, and much much more!) I am also going to include some other fun stuff for you thats on my mind that week! 

Get excited…because it’s T-Shirt Time again!!! T-shirt Contest time that is 🙂 For those of you who have entered in the past you know the rules..but just in case you need a refresher, or you are new to this contest, please read these rules in their entirety. (Also keep in mind that your submission can be for either Gallagher Girl or Heist Society) 

Because of the number of entries we’re expecting and what’s at stake,entries that do not comply with the contest rules will not be considered.

If you have questions regarding the contest rules, please consult a parent, guardian, or teacher.

 

THE RULES

Please send your entry, your name, your date of birth, and your email address to AllyCarterContest (at sign) gmail.com on or before Sunday, November 27th, 2011

Entrants must be under 21 years of age on the date that contest entries are due.

Entrants must be from United States or Canada. 

All designs must be original artwork (no clipart, photographs to which you do not own the copyright, etc.).

Designs may use lines or themes from the book, but should not directly copy any cover art elements.

Collaborative efforts are allowed, but prizes must be shared among the members of the winning team.

A parent or guardian may assist, but you must do the majority of the work yourself.

Designs will be judged based on concept, execution, and the ability for the designs to duplicate well.

Designs must be sent as either pdf or jpeg files. (Entries may be created in any software program or with pen/paper, but files MUST be scanned or saved in either pdf or jpeg format before they are sent to us because we don’t make the files–we just deliver them to the t-shirt people as is.  In other words, your design must be ready AS-IS.)

You will be submitting designs only–no need to make actual t-shirts. Those will come later.

You may submit a maximum of TWO entries.

Designs can be for front, or back, or front and back. Note that preference may be given to designs that are one-sided since they will be less expensive to produce and purchase.

An important note:

The winning design may be used in a number of ways to help promote the Gallagher Girls series and/or Heist Society. By entering this contest you give up the copyright to your artwork (meaning you can’t sue us if we use it because…well…using it is kind of the purpose.)

If you’ve read and understood these rules and feel up to a challenge, then start designing!

The winner will receive a $200 gift card to the bookstore of his or her choice and a t-shirt featuring the winning design!

The winning design will be featured on t-shirts (and possibly other merchandise) that will be sold on cafepress.com. (Please note that these items will be sold “at cost” meaning I won’t be making any money off of this, just so you know.)

 

You all should enter! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain!!! Speaking of winning…We have 7 awesome winners from the Halloween Costume Contest! Next week I will be posting their pictures for everyone to see. I also have a special surprise for you next week, so be sure to check back for that! I know you all are going to love i!! 

 

Right now rocking out to the new Coldplay CD….the song Princess of China (that has Rihanna in it) is my favorite!!! You should all check it out if you are looking for some new tunes to spice up your playlists.  Do you have any songs you are loving right now? Submit them and we might even be able to put up a November playlist up on here! 

Have an great week everyone!!!!!! Keep the feedback coming 🙂 I love reading all of your comments…they kind of make my days a million times more awesome! 

 

XOXO

Molly

  2. That sounds awesome! I’ll get right on it! My favorite song right now is “Someone Like You” By Adele. (Yeah, I know, it’s getting a bit over-used lately..) BUT, it really reminds me of Cammie and Mr. Solomon in the fourth book? Anyone else, or is it just me?

    Anyway, I’m glad your here Molly!

  4. That sounds cool, Molly! I can’t WAIT to see what you have planned. And an up-side is, now I have SOMETHING to look forward to on Mondays. 🙂
    Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of Scotty McCreery. And Carrie Underwood, of course. <<<<--- Favorite singer. As for things matching Cammie and Zach or something, "Pushing me Away" by Jonas Brothers. And "Full Circle" by Miley Cyrus because of how Cammie probably feels. I usually don't like them but I like these songs. Thanks. 😀

  5. Oh my gosh! I have come to the conclusion that I love you. Coldplay for life, bro <3! I really like Princess of China, too, but my favorite is Charlie Brown. 😀

  6. No matter how old it is, Last Night by Skillet is on the top of my list. Second is probably Life After You by Daughtry.

  7. I’m so excited for everything you have planned, Molly! And I can’t really choose a favorite song of the moment; there are just so many!! But anything from The Script <3 and The Fray <3 will always be on my favorites list.

  21. I am confused about this whole thing… What kind of design are we talking about? Logo? Whole shirt? Iron- on picture thing? Sorry; I’m just new to the shirt contest thing.

  25. I’ve been constantly listening to two songs by Cody Simpson that fit Zach and Cammie perfectly. Angel and Not just you. I can’t wait until March when GG5 comes out. I really hope Zach and Cammie stay together. Zach sounds a lot more outgoing and dangerous than Josh. But I’ll be honest, if they were real I wouldn’t be able to choose between the two. Josh is the sweet boy next door, which is admirable. But Zach is the dark and mysterious who leaves girls begging after him, which is HOT! Oh please March, hurry up!
