Round 4's Theme

Yay! Time to announce the theme for Round 4!!

Just to build up the anticipation, I'm going to babble a little first :) I got my graduation "supplies" today! I am super excited. Only 9 more days of high school left and I got asked multiple times [by some freshman] if I was a freshman and got very surprised reactions everytime I gave my answer. Oh well. 1 day until Spring break and then only 8 more days!

ANYWAY!!


The theme for the round is...


Black and White


Now, don't jump to conclusions, your picture does not have to be a black and white picture, but when I look at it, I want to be able to understand how it matches the theme. Black and white could be literal or figurative. Think about it. Be creative. Take some pictures and have them in no later than May 4th.

Have some fun and turn in some beautiful pictures! Also, Don't forget that you can always turn them in early!! :)

All for now,

Round 3 Results

OK!  Time to put up all of the pictures from this round! I guess I'll go ahead and do that before I start babbling...



Koda with Josefina

Sonja with Adair

Jasmine with Cynthia

Emma with Kit

Carolyn with Delilah

Liddy with Natalie

Alisha with Jess

Amerigirl with Mia

Mackenzie with Chrissa 

Quinlyn with Felicity (close, get it in earlier next time!)

Munch with Samantha

Britts with Jasmine

Iona with Kit
 (I am really sorry, I don't know why yours are always sideways!)

Time for Special Mentions!

Amerigirl with Mia- Mia looks adorable in her romper! It's a beautiful picture.

Jasmine with Cynthia- Cynthia's pose is absolutely beautiful! I think the gentle lighting and pastel colors go
                                      great with her graceful pose :)
Koda with Josefina- Some of specifics of the picture aren't the best, but I really love that you thought out of
                                the box and took a creative picture. Josefina is adorable. With a little work on lighting
                                and angles, you could have some truly fabulous pictures :)
Unfortunately, "The Crazy Doll Lady with Vienna" and "Livvy with Nelly" failed to turn in pictures so I have to eliminate them. Fortunately, that means that I have covered my quota for this round and don't have to eliminate anyone else! Yay!

I will announce the theme for round 4 soon, probably tomorow, after homework of course!

I promise I will post the results for round 3 either later today or tomorrow, but right now, I still don't feel very well and am going to take a nap.

Sorry,

Oh hey, looky there!

It would appear as though Round 3's pictures are due this coming Saturday! Man, that really snuck up on me... Well, anyway, here is your reminder!

Sorry that I don't have anything super witty to put in, but my peak flow is only at about 275 right now, and with my height etc. it should be a lot more. (for those of you who don't understand this babble, it's code for I've got asthma and a really bad cold.) Hopefully, I will be all better and back to my normal bubbly self on Saturday when I judge your pictures!

I've got about 5 already, but I want the rest of them!!! Right now! Go! Really! (just kidding... kind of... :)  )

Round 3's Theme

Are you excited for Round 3? I am! I have been having a beyond difficult time picking a theme for this round, but I believe I have come up with a fairly good one. It sounds simple at first, but I really like the pictures I got when I gave you few limitations, so I am trying it again. Here we go...

The Round 3 theme is...



"My Favorite Outfit"


I want a beautiful "Fashion Photography" picture of your doll modeling her favorite outfit. Be creative, but remember not to bulk up the clothes or accessories on your doll. (I don't know if the idea of that last sentence was very clear, Accessories and layers can be a good thing, but not too many). I want some more FABULOUS pictures for this round so go out and get started!

The deadline for this round will be... Saturday April 16th. I have to make it a little earlier so that I can get results posted and the next theme up before I leave on my spring break trip :)

Aren't they beautiful!

Time for Special Mentions!!!

            - Amerigirl with Mia- Such gorgeous lighting!! Mia looks so pretty, and gotta love the bokeh.

            - Carolyn with Delilah- I love all of the bright colors and patterns. The writting is a little much, but it's still beautiful.
            - Britts with Jasmine- So creative! I love the deep colors and the angle is great.

Now for the hard part. I have to eliminate 2 people. As hard as it is for me to choose, I have chosen to eliminate "Anne with Elizabeth" and "Nutti Netti with Mia". I am so sorry, you have both taken some good pictures. Better luck next season!

I'll announce Round 3's Theme some time in the next few days, be on the lookout!
