It will be a very SNAP!py Christmas for one of my lucky readers!!!
I am SO EXCITED to have the opportunity to giveaway one full Conference Pass to the event of the year for creative bloggers!
I blogged a lot of the details about SNAP! Conference on this post, and you’ll want to head to the SNAP! Website today, because a little birdie told me that some of the amazing speakers are about to be announced!!! Yea!
Some friends have recently asked me for advice about growing their blog or their on-line presence. The first tip I would give is to encourage them to attend SNAP! Conference, if they possibly can! Not just because of the information that will be available about blogging and social media, but really because by participating in something like this, you become part of a great community–on-line and in real life! A community that can function as your support system, therapist, consultant, promoter, cheerleader and so much more! I truly think the Creative/crafty/DIY community of bloggers is the nicest corner anywhere on the internet! I am amazed at the talented people I’ve met who are also really good and interesting people!
I attended two blogging conferences and a few social events for bloggers last year. This is what I wrote after attending my first conference and learning I was going to get the chance to be part of the SNAP! team:
Getting to meet up with other bloggers and creative women…a few weeks ago was somewhat life-altering for me! Others have expressed similar sentiments about how wonderful it is to get to be around people that share your creative compulsions. You know. People who don’t raise their eyebrows and stare when you use the words spray paint and plastic tablecloth in the same sentence. People that understand the daily struggle of trying to balance motherhood, creativity, blogging, and that other stuff that just has to get done sometimes. It’s a very validating experience!
I’ve seen all of the hard work that is going on behind the scenes to make SNAP! more than a typical blogging conference. It will be hands-on, relevant, exciting, pretty, and a whole lotta fun!
I would so love to see you there and see what insanity we share! A SNAP! Conference pass may be just the thing to ask Santa for for Christmas–it won’t clutter your house, add to your waistline, or shrink in the wash! And more importantly, it may be a life-altering experience.
BUT you might not have to wait for Santa, because I am giving away ONE TICKET TO SNAP! CONFERENCE right here, right now!!!
All I want to know is why you’d love to come to SNAP! Conference–other than to hang out with me, of course! Leave me a comment with your answer and you are entered to win!!!
BONUS ENTRIES:
Subscribe to the SNAP! blog (use the dark grey rss button) and leave me a comment letting me know you did.
Subscribe to My Insanity (my Google Friends Connect is down, so please sign up via my RSS button–the orange one). If you think you are already subscribed, I’d love it if you would check again. I had quite a few subscribers go missing when I made the switch to WordPress, and I’d love to have you back! Leave me a comment letting me know.
MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO WIN!:
Sadly, I can only pick one winner, but there are a total of 12 tickets being handed out in this amazing 12 days of Christmas Giveaway Extravaganza! You can enter contests on the following sites:
I am dying to go to SNAP this year because I want to meet so many bloggers! I’m crazy about blogging and would love to meet some of you insane, but lovely of course, women IRL. 🙂
I cannot believe I was the first commenter. Crazyness… I am also a follower of the SNAP blog! 🙂 You can find me at the SNAP chat most of the time too! 🙂
Hi Kendra! I actually already bought my ticket and am so excited to go! But I would still love to win this so I can bring a good friend! (If that’s OK!) Can’t wait!
I subscribe to you on GFC and it is working just fine! I like it way better than RSS. I guess technically I subscribe to SNAP but since they aren’t on GFC it takes a few days for me to check their updates. Spread the word to Tauni. I may not be the only one!
I would love to be in a room full of like-minded women. Not to mention meet several of the friends I’ve made online in person!

It’s only been in the last few months that I have discovered this whole BLOGOSPHERE, and I’m totally hooked. This has always been right up my alley–this DIY lifestyle–and to find a group of people that share the same interests, well, I couldn’t be more happy 🙂 So, to get to attend the SNAP conference would be an amazing experience!

It would be fantastic to go to SNAP!! With 5 boys I would not have an opportunity to go unless I did win, and I can only imagine how amazing it is to have all of those women together. How inspirational!!! It would be so fantastic!!
I would love to attend snap because I feel like its the kind of conference that affirms that I was put on this earth to use my gifts. I feel like blogging allows me to live in a world where I don’t have to justify my love for making crafts, owning a business, and being true to myself. I am loved and accepted by strangers who become friends. I would love the opportunity to meet some of them online friends in real life and learn and grow from the experience!!

I actually just blogged about this Conference, it’s one of only 3 things on my wish-list!… I have never attended a creative conference, but I have ALWAYS wanted to. This one just happens to be only 20 minutes from my house, and I am doing everything I can to convince my hubs it’s worth the $$. I don’t have any real-close girlfriends and I would sure love some, especially some that share my interests! Not only would I be in HEAVEN being inspired by creative geniuses, but knowing I would make lifelong friends would be good enough for me!

Hi Kendra! I think I’m one of the only ones who ISN”T coming to SNAP at the moment and it makes me sad. I know it will be an amazing time for networking, community, learning, friendship, and fun. I’m praying a ticket comes through for me! Thanks for the chance.
