Carnival Cruise Lines has launched a fun and unique new Pinterest contest called “I’d Rather be Carnival Cruising to _______” that will award one lucky winner a seven-day “Fun Ship” Caribbean cruise for two. Keep reading to discover how you can participate in the Carnival Cruise Lines Pinterest Contest .

Here is how to pin it to win it:

Objective: create a visual story that will showcase your ideal dream cruise.

1. Sign up: http://www.carnival.com/pinterest.aspx. You will be asked to pick your destination from four choices.

Example of the four destinations to choose from.

2.  After you select your destination, register your email and give your birthday (market research again).

3. Once you type in your email and birthday, click on the “Create Pin” command. You will be directed to Pinterest. Since I was already logged in, my computer navigated to Pinterest automatically. I opted to create a new pinboard and this is what it looked like:

4. For the contest, you need to repin 5 items from the Carnival Cruise Lines’ pinboards, along with any other images you find to tell the story of your dream cruise.  Participants can pin at least five images or videos from any of Carnival’s social media sites or carnival.com (to do this, users must have a “pin it” button installed in their web browser or you have to pin from Pinterest and upload directly).

Complete rules and contest information are available at http://www.carnival.com/pinterest.

Your pin board must have at least five Carnival Cruise Lines’ images but the rest of the board can feature any other images.  Consumers can enter the contest up to four times by simply re-visiting the contest page, choosing a new destination, and entering again.  The contest runs through October 14, 2012.

Judges from Carnival will select the top 10 boards based on beauty, creativity and originality.  The grand prize winner will be chosen by guest judge and “pinning rock star” Mike Dew who has more than three million followers on Pinterest.   To inspire participants, Dew will also be creating his own board specifically for the contest.
