{Blog Celebration Giveaways}: Find Joy Canvas, Contest Winner + A Survey - CLOSED!!

Today is a very exciting day in the life of Worthy of the Prize!

Today is the day that we announce the winner of our "Share Your Story" Contest, the woman who will be the final contributor in our upcoming ebook!

And the winner IS....{drumroll please}....

SARA DRINKARD
of

Congratulations, Sara!!! You and your story will be featured in our "find joy in the journey" ebook, set to release sometime Summer 2012! Wooohooo! :)

It was a tough decision but Mary Jo and I believe Sara is a gifted writer and we love her perspective on life after adoption.

Visit Sara over at Applestone Drive and show her some love! :)

Another reason today is an exciting day is because YOU are going to help us finalize the cover design of our upcoming ebook!

This is the cover that Mary Jo is working on but we cannot decide which color trim - black, gray or aqua!

Which one do you like best?


By the way, there are definitely going to be more than 12 stories in the book - God has bombarded me with some amazing stories over the past few weeks!

And finally, the last reason why this is such an exciting day is because one of my favorite artists, Laura of Pitter Patter Art, has designed this beautiful Find Joy Canvas in honor of our upcoming ebook and she is giving it away to 1 lucky winner! It is our final giveaway of the week!

LOVE. Can I win it? ;)


Laura is an amazing artist.


She will even do custom orders.


And the best part - ALL proceeds go toward her adoption!


Go here to read about the exciting news Laura received this week! SO happy for her and her family, it has been a long journey!
