The person who submits the photo that gets most votes wins a trip for two to Los Angeles to visit the set of “Pretty Little Liars.”</p><p>“Our fans are fascinated by ‘A,’ the mysterious, unidentified villain on the show who leaves messages for our main characters threatening to reveal their secrets unless they do what she—or he—says,” said Danielle Mullin, VP Marketing, ABC Family. “These messages are always signed with a big letter ‘A.’ On our Pretty Little Liars Facebook page, we noticed that fans were posting photographs of the letter ‘A’ as they came across it in their daily lives—emphasizing the fact that no one can escape A’s reach! We decided to capitalize on this organic trend by creating a campaign called ‘A is Everywhere’—a great example of how social media allows us to connect with our fans and build upon the aspects of the show that are truly resonating with them.”</p><p>To enter the contest, fans can upload their photo of “A” on the ABC Family website, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/ABCFamily_com_AisEverywhere/18741/3">ABCFamily.com/AisEverywhere</a> or the official Facebook page, <a href="http://Facebook.com/prettylittleliars">Facebook.com/prettylittleliars</a>. The photo that gets the most votes wins. The person who submitted that photo will win a trip for two to the “Pretty Little Liars” set (includes airfare and hotel). The top 50 photos will be included in a special edition “Pretty Little Liars” poster. The contest ends January 23rd at 8pm PST.</p><p>All new episodes of &#8220;Pretty Little Liars&#8221; premiere on Monday, January 2, at 8:00 pm ET/PT. Based on the popular Sara Shepherd book series, the show follows four friends &#8211; Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer – who are being tormented by taunting texts by the mysterious “A” after their best friend Alison turns up dead after vanishing a year before. The texts reveal secrets only Alison would know. In the upcoming new episodes, the girls take matters into their own hands and try to finally put a stop to their tormentor. As relationships are put to the test, new and old secrets are revealed and the stakes are raised higher than ever before as the Liars come closer to the truth.</p><p>“Pretty Little Liars&#8221; won three Teen Choice Awards in 2010 and 2011 for Choice Summer TV Series, Choice Summer TV</p><hr /><p><small>© Stitch Kingdom for <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com">StitchKingdom.com</a>, 2011. | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pretty-liars-a-is-everywhere-contest-18741/">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pretty-liars-a-is-everywhere-contest-18741/#comments">One comment</a> | Add to <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pretty-liars-a-is-everywhere-contest-18741/&title=&#8216;Pretty Little Liars&#8217; &#8216;A is Everywhere&#8217; Photo Contest to Award Visit to Set">del.icio.us</a> <br/> Post tags: <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/abc-family/" rel="tag">ABC Family</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/contest/" rel="tag">Contest</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/pretty-little-liars/" rel="tag">Pretty Little Liars</a><br/> </small></p><p><small>Feed enhanced by <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-better-feed-rss/'>Better Feed</a> from <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/'>Ozh</a></small></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pretty-liars-a-is-everywhere-contest-18741/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>ABC&#8217;s &#8216;The Chew&#8217; Announces Nationwide Search for Holiday Cookie Recipe</title><link>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-the-chew-holiday-cookie-swap-18644/</link> <comments>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-the-chew-holiday-cookie-swap-18644/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 28 Nov 2011 20:07:25 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Stitch Kingdom</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Contests]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Television]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ABC]]></category> <category><![CDATA[ABC Daytime]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Contest]]></category> <category><![CDATA[The Chew]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.stitchkingdom.com/?p=18644</guid> <description><![CDATA[During the Monday, November 28 episode of &#8220;The Chew,&#8221; ABC Daytime&#8217;s new lifestyle series announced the launch of &#8220;The Chew Holiday Cookie Swap,&#8221; a nationwide search for the most scrumptious and unique holiday cookie recipes.

Today the Million Moms Challenge, in collaboration with ABC News, the United Nations Foundation, Disney Baby and Anne Geddes, launched Imagine Me &amp; You, a photo contest to win a trip for two adults, plus baby, to Australia for a photo shoot with world-renowned photographer Anne Geddes.</p><p>The contest, which was announced on &#8220;Good Morning America&#8221; today, Monday, November 28 is designed to celebrate the universal dream that mothers everywhere have for healthy, happy babies who will grow to reach their full potential. To enter the contest, expectant moms in their third trimester can upload a picture of their &#8220;baby bump&#8221; on <a href="http://www.Facebook.com/millionmomschallenge">www.Facebook.com/millionmomschallenge</a>, along with an original, creative message written on their bellies capturing their wishes and dreams for life with their little one.</p><p>America will vote on the images from December 6 to December 15. The three finalists will be announced on December 16. Anne Geddes will personally select the grand-prize winner in January, and will shoot a rare private portrait of the winning mom and newborn in her Sydney, Australia studio.</p><p>&#8220;To illustrate the importance of love and family in the earliest stages of life is a message that I stand behind and feel privileged to experience every day,&#8221; said Geddes, who has made a commitment to the United Nations&#8217; Every Woman Every Child effort to raise awareness about the need to improve the health of women and children in the developing world. &#8220;That is why I am proud to be a part of the Million Moms Challenge Imagine Me &amp; You contest.&#8221;</p><p>Realizing that a healthier tomorrow for our world starts with healthy moms and babies today, the Million Moms Challenge engages millions of Americans with millions of moms in developing countries around issues that affect pregnancy, childbirth and children&#8217;s health.</p><p>&#8220;Mothers around the world look forward to sharing special moments with their babies,&#8221; noted Kathy Calvin, CEO of the United Nations Foundation. &#8220;But in developing countries, up to 1.5 million newborns die within the first 24 hours &#8211; and most of these lives could have been saved with better health care. This contest will highlight those precious milestones in life that partners like the United Nations and the Shot@Life campaign will help make a reality for mothers and children around the world.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;There is so much we can do together &#8211; so many simple ways for us all to link arms to help every mother and child have a chance to lead a healthy life,&#8221; said Diane Sawyer, anchor of &#8220;ABC World News.&#8221; Sawyer will anchor a primetime special on maternal/newborn health that will air December 16 on &#8220;20/20.&#8221;</p><p>Disney Baby, a new brand from Disney Consumer Products, which provides parents with the essentials they need to</p><hr /><p><small>© Stitch Kingdom for <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com">StitchKingdom.com</a>, 2011. | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-imagine-me-and-you-anne-gedess-contest-18642/">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-imagine-me-and-you-anne-gedess-contest-18642/#comments">No comment</a> | Add to <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-imagine-me-and-you-anne-gedess-contest-18642/&title=Million Moms Challenge Announces Photo Contest to Award Session with Anne Geddes in Australia">del.icio.us</a> <br/> Post tags: <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/abc/" rel="tag">ABC</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/abc-daytime/" rel="tag">ABC Daytime</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/anne-geddes/" rel="tag">Anne Geddes</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/contest/" rel="tag">Contest</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/dcp/" rel="tag">DCP</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/disney-baby/" rel="tag">Disney Baby</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/gma/" rel="tag">GMA</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/good-morning-america/" rel="tag">Good Morning America</a><br/> </small></p><p><small>Feed enhanced by <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-better-feed-rss/'>Better Feed</a> from <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/'>Ozh</a></small></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-imagine-me-and-you-anne-gedess-contest-18642/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>&#8216;U Rock&#8217; Disney.com Contest to Award Behind-the-Scenes Trip</title><link>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-u-rock-holiday-18410/</link> <comments>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-u-rock-holiday-18410/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 10 Nov 2011 18:53:10 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Stitch Kingdom</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Contests]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Internet]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Contest]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Disney.com]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sweepstakes]]></category> <category><![CDATA[U Rock]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.stitchkingdom.com/?p=18410</guid> <description><![CDATA[This Holiday season, Disney.com invites kids and teens to channel their inner rock star in the U Rock the Holidays event at Disney.com/URock.

The centerpiece of the festival was a joint presentation of Dai Soto&#8217;s <em>Five Numbers</em> and Disney/Pixar&#8217;s <em>La Luna</em>, which is the short that will open alongside <em>Brave </em>on June 22, 2012. A presentation and brief Q&amp;A session with <em>La Luna</em> writer and director Enrico Casarosa was also offered following the screening.</p><p>According to the official synopsis, <em>La Luna</em> is the timeless fable of a young boy who is coming of age in the most peculiar of circumstances. Tonight is the very first time his Papa and Grandpa are taking him to work. In an old wooden boat they row far out to sea, and with no land in sight, they stop and wait.  A big surprise awaits the little boy as he discovers his family&#8217;s most unusual line of work. Should he follow the example of his Papa, or his Grandpa? Will he be able to find his own way in the midst of their conflicting opinions and timeworn traditions?</p><p>Even though the film was screened at a panel during the 2011 Disney D23 Expo, I was unable to attend it and so this was my first time seeing the short and the only thing preventing me from saying it was worth the wait is the constant nagging, desire to see it again and wishing I had seen it again before and can see it again now &#8212; I can only assume those of you that have already seen it know what I&#8217;m talking about. It&#8217;s a visually stunning, enchanting piece that delivers its message quickly, clearly and quite sweetly, in a way that will make you want to watch it over and over.</p><p>Casarosa, who grew up in Italy but lived in New York City for many years, has a strong connection to Japan, who he says inspired the film along with Italy, where it takes place (although it quite literally could take place anywhere). As a child in Genoa, he was able to watch much of the animated shows being produced in Japan on local television. Although it took many years to realize it, he credits Japanese animation and Hayao Miyazaki in particular amongst his influences in the medium. There is even an homage, or &#8216;love letter,&#8217; to Miyazaki in the short, where gravity temporarily loses its old on protagonist Bambino.</p><p>Via a presentation laden with hilarious sketches, photos, footage, concept art and more, Casarosa took the audience through the process of directing his first film at Pixar, from conception to completion. With his directorial debut being a short, he said the go-to analogy for most is to say to him &#8216;so they&#8217;ve handed you the keys to the <em>little</em></p><hr /><p><small>© Stitch Kingdom for <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com">StitchKingdom.com</a>, 2011. | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-la-luna-poster-giveaway-17726/">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-la-luna-poster-giveaway-17726/#comments">No comment</a> | Add to <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-la-luna-poster-giveaway-17726/&title=&#8216;La Luna&#8217; Director Enrico Casarosa Talks Filmmaking; Signed Poster Giveaway">del.icio.us</a> <br/> Post tags: <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/brave/" rel="tag">Brave</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/contest/" rel="tag">Contest</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/giveaway/" rel="tag">Giveaway</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/la-luna/" rel="tag">La Luna</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/sweepstakes/" rel="tag">Sweepstakes</a><br/> </small></p><p><small>Feed enhanced by <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-better-feed-rss/'>Better Feed</a> from <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/'>Ozh</a></small></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-la-luna-poster-giveaway-17726/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <enclosure url="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/P1000145-113x150.jpg" length="6665" type="image/jpg" /> </item> <item><title>GIVEAWAY: Pixie Hollow Prize Pack Labor Day Giveaway on Twitter</title><link>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/</link> <comments>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Mon, 05 Sep 2011 13:53:58 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Stitch Kingdom</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Contests]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Contest]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Giveaway]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Pixie Hollow]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Pixie Hollow Games]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Sweepstakes]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.stitchkingdom.com/?p=17638</guid> <description><![CDATA[The &#8216;Pixie Hollow Games&#8217; are coming and all the fairies and sparrow men of Pixie Hollow have been training hard to compete by the time the games air on Disney Channel later this year.

Determined not to let the garden fairies’ unfortunate history of not performing well at the Games get to her, newcomer Chloe (voiced by Brenda Song) works to convince all of the other garden fairies, which includes her teammate Rosetta (voiced by Megan Hilty) and the pragmatic Fern (voiced by Zendaya), that they must work together and dig down deep to break their well-known losing streak. Along the way, the reigning champion storm fairies, including Rumble (voiced by Jason Dolley) and Glimmer (voiced by Tiffany Thornton), continue to intimidate and outperform their competitors, but with Chloe’s spirited determination,</p><hr /><p><small>© Stitch Kingdom for <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com">StitchKingdom.com</a>, 2011. | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/#comments">No comment</a> | Add to <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/&title=GIVEAWAY: Pixie Hollow Prize Pack Labor Day Giveaway on Twitter">del.icio.us</a> <br/> Post tags: <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/contest/" rel="tag">Contest</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/giveaway/" rel="tag">Giveaway</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/pixie-hollow/" rel="tag">Pixie Hollow</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/pixie-hollow-games/" rel="tag">Pixie Hollow Games</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/sweepstakes/" rel="tag">Sweepstakes</a><br/> </small></p><p><small>Feed enhanced by <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-better-feed-rss/'>Better Feed</a> from <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/'>Ozh</a></small></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-pixie-hollow-gift-pack-giveaway-17638/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <enclosure url="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Giveaway-image-150x118.jpg" length="8086" type="image/jpg" /> </item> <item><title>Video Contest Offers Chance for Young Fans to Attend Rapunzel Coronation Ceremony</title><link>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-rapunzel-coronation-video-contest-17526/</link> <comments>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-rapunzel-coronation-video-contest-17526/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 26 Aug 2011 03:31:54 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Stitch Kingdom</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Contests]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Contest]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Disney Princess]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Events]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rapunzel]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.stitchkingdom.com/?p=17526</guid> <description><![CDATA[As Rapunzel is welcomed into the Disney Princess royal court on October 2 at Kensington Palace in London, England, Disney Princess fans can feel a part of the special occasion by participating in an online video contest on Disney.com.

The companies have created a variety of resources for families, including a special <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/online_hub/16936/2">online hub</a> found on Disney Family.com and a series of custom books by Disney Publishing Worldwide for children of various ages and stages of life with diabetes.</p><p>Each year, more than 13,000 young people in the United States are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. For both the child and family, the challenges of living with diabetes can be daunting. Through the collaboration, the companies hope to provide an empowering message for families with children who have type 1 diabetes—changing the focus from what they can’t do to what they can do.</p><p>To help families add some magic to their everyday lives, a special online destination dedicated entirely to type 1 diabetes will live on Disney Family.com at <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/www_family_com_type1/16936/3">www.family.com/type1</a>. The site will contain articles, videos and advice from caregivers raising children with type 1 diabetes and will highlight ways for families to establish a new routine and let kids be kids. The site will feature important topics such as how to plan for vacations, sleepovers and extracurricular activities as well as tips on how to talk to friends, teachers and coaches about type 1 diabetes. Content will be refreshed monthly and contributors will include dietitians, psychologists, nurses and everyday families, making the hub a rich destination for parents and caregivers.</p><p>“Through this collaboration, we hope to provide suggestions to families on how to help them experience the fun and magic of everyday life,” said Brooke Chaffin, SVP, Disney Interactive Media Group.</p><p>Lilly Diabetes and Disney Publishing Worldwide will launch a collection of custom books for children of various ages and stages of life with diabetes. The books, which will be released over several years and made available through select doctors’ offices, focus on the many adventures of childhood with type 1 diabetes, such as returning to school after diagnosis, going to birthday parties and playing sports.</p><p>One such book is part of the <em>Mickey Mouse Clubhouse </em>series, and features Coco—a charismatic and fun-loving monkey who has type 1 diabetes.

Bay Kennish grew up in a wealthy family with two parents and a brother, while Daphne Vasquez, who lost her hearing at an early age due to a case of meningitis, grew up with a single mother in a working class neighborhood. Things come to a dramatic head when both families meet and struggle to learn how to live together for the sake of the girls.</p><p>The game centers around the teenage character of Bay, a rebellious and talented street artist, who has been hiding the fact that she’s been painting her stencil art (image above) around the neighborhood. In the online game, players will hunt the internet for 10 of Bay’s signature pink Tags, each of which will have two letters written underneath it. Starting May 31st, the network will post two clues per weekday on abcfamily.com that hint to the sites where Bay’s stencil art can be found. On Monday, June 6th, the first eligible person to collect all 20 letters and enter the complete code on abcfamily.com wins the grand prize of $4,000 to switch their life for the weekend*.</p><p>Users can also scan the pink Microsoft Tags with a smart phone to access sneak peeks of “Switched at Birth,” including video, photos and script pages.</p><p>&#8220;Switched at Birth&#8221; is executive-produced by Lizzy Weiss (&#8220;Blue Crush&#8221;), Paul Stupin (&#8220;Make It or Break It&#8221;) and John Ziffren (&#8220;Melissa &amp; Joey,&#8221; &#8220;Make It or Break It&#8221;).

One grand prize winner will get their comic featured as an insert in an  upcoming Marvel Adventures comic book and five finalists will win a  fantastic Thor prize pack. To enter, kids can go to <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/Disney_com_Create/15993/1">Disney.com/Create</a> to design their own comic and then save and share it online for a chance to win.<a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/"></a></p><p>The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes Comic Creator app on Disney.com/Create lets kids tell their own story by adding  characters, backgrounds and dialogue to a series of comic book panels.   Kids can also use a variety of unique drawing tools to create their own  characters and scenes, just like a real comic book artist.</p><p>To  help kids find their inner artist, two exclusive videos featuring  Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer, Joe Quesada will be  featured on the site. In the first video, Quesada offers insights into  what it means to be creative, where his inspiration comes from, and his  advice for young artists. The second video gives kids an  over-the-shoulder view of Quesada drawing Marvel’s Thor character, in a  time lapse video that showcases the artistic process.</p><p>The contest ends May 31, 2011 and official rules can be found <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/external/here/15993/3">here</a>.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><hr /><p><small>© Stitch Kingdom for <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com">StitchKingdom.com</a>, 2011. | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-marvels-the-avengers-earths-mightiest-heroes-comic-creator-kids-chance-creation-marvel-adventures-comic-book-15993/">Permalink</a> | <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-marvels-the-avengers-earths-mightiest-heroes-comic-creator-kids-chance-creation-marvel-adventures-comic-book-15993/#comments">No comment</a> | Add to <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-marvels-the-avengers-earths-mightiest-heroes-comic-creator-kids-chance-creation-marvel-adventures-comic-book-15993/&title=Marvel’s &#8216;The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes&#8217; Comic Creator Gives Kids Chance to Have Creation Appear in a Marvel Adventures Comic Book">del.icio.us</a> <br/> Post tags: <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/contest/" rel="tag">Contest</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/disney-online/" rel="tag">Disney Online</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/emh/" rel="tag">EMH</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/marvel/" rel="tag">Marvel</a>, <a href="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/tag/the-avengers/" rel="tag">The Avengers</a><br/> </small></p><p><small>Feed enhanced by <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/my-projects/wordpress-plugin-better-feed-rss/'>Better Feed</a> from <a href='http://planetozh.com/blog/'>Ozh</a></small></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disney-marvels-the-avengers-earths-mightiest-heroes-comic-creator-kids-chance-creation-marvel-adventures-comic-book-15993/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> <enclosure url="http://www.stitchkingdom.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/disney-onlines-avengersemh-comic-creator-150x125.jpg" length="11267" type="image/jpg" /> </item> </channel> </rss>
