Bloggy Giveaways Carnival!

I don't know how this happened, but I forgot about the quarterly Carnival hosted by Bloggy Giveaways! I purchased my prize last week but writing the post? Well, I am a tad late with THAT because I'm a moron the Carnival already started and 274 people have already signed Mr. Linky!!! DOH!

I guess better late than never, huh?

So anywho, I decided to giveaway something a little different. It is SO much fun, at least I think it is. I own this and am addicted to using it.

Are any of you planning on renovating your home? Painting it? Landscaping your yard? Well, the Better Homes and Gardens Picture Painter software is a great place to get ideas. This program is awesome!

Visualize and paint in 3 easy steps. 1. Take a picture of the interior or exterior of your home. 2. Load the pictures onto your computer and mask the areas to change. 3. Choose colors, materials, and images on your own home before you paint or remodel!

The program incorporates popular manufacturers into the materials, such as: Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, DuPont Corian, Armstrong, etc.

The landscaping feature helps you choose from hundreds of plants. Plan how the outside of your home will look!

There are so many things you can do! If you are ready to get to work on your home but are not sure about colors or materials, this tool can be just the place to start.

Or, if you are like me, and like to dream about how your house COULD look, you might want this too, because it's SO.MUCH.FUN!

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment to this post. USA residents only, sorry. Open to bloggers and non-bloggers (just make sure to leave an email address, in case you win). I will pick a winner via random.org on Friday. See? Wasn't that easy?!

Good luck!

Oh, one more thing....if you enjoy It's A Schmitty Life, please don't forget to subscribe to my feed. Why not join my other readers in laughing at my expense?!

P.S. The system requirements: Windows XP/Vista or newer. 1.2 GHz processor or greater. 512 MG or RAM or greater. 2 GB of available disk space. DVD drive. java 1.5 or newer (included). A $60.00 value!

I have 288 entries!!! WOW! I have just printed out the list of entries and I am going to have my very special guest judges, Judge W., Judge T., and Judge R., pick the winners. And yes, I said WINNERS. I have decided because of the great response to this wonderful giveaway, that the brilliant Shannon of Rocks In My Dryer has come up with, I am awarding 3 sets of Notes with Coordinating Address Labels to 3 lucky people.

Also, to avoid any fighting in my house, because mommy is always fair, each kid has to pick a winner. If I don't do this, I'll be dealing with that fiasco all weekend!
