Reminder!!!

Reminder: Headshots AND round 1 pics are due on September 5. I only have on picture, and that's making me a little nervous... have fun finishing your pictures!

Thank You Jasmine!!!

I just wanted to say thank you to Jasmine for re designing the blog. It looks amazing!!!! And to keep this from being uber short a picture of Mia:

First Theme!!!

Hi guys!I'm trying to type this on my mom's iPad in the back of a car so please excuse my typos. Okay, so after much thinking I've decided on a theme for our first round together. The theme is... Celebration!!!

I want to see your creativity on high, lots of details, and beautiful pictures. Please try to all send them. In!!! The deadline is September 5 along with the headshots.

I need to go, for I'm starting to feel a bit car sick.

Amerigirl

Won't be here!

Hey world. *Looks over shoulder* This is Ali, one of Amerigirl's dolls (MyAG 53). I'm not really supposed to be posting, I'm supposed to be packing. One second.

"Ali, are you packed?"

"Yes mom! *mumbles* Almost."

Okay. So basically, I'm writing to say that we'll be away until the twenty fourth of August. There are only four more spots. First four people to comment are the people in. If not enough people comment, Amerigirl will check the message board and the email. If 5 or 6 people comment/email/pm her, I'll try to talk Amerigirl into letting them all participate ;)

"Ali! You know we have to get up at five am, right? I still have to right on the AGC blog and finish packing... at least your done."

"Uh... coming!!!"

Okay. I'd better go start packing. I mean, bring my suitcase downstairs.

Hopefully I'll get to post again... If Amerigirl doesn't kill me!

Bey for now, (and wish me luck!)

Ali.

Time For Season 7!

Hey everybody! I'm Amerigirl. I'm the host for season 7! Sign ups for season 7 will start today and go through September 1, or until we have 20 people. This is going to be lots of fun, and the sooner we can get sign ups done, the sooner we can start!!! Comment or email me to sign up, or private message me on the AG fan message board (AGCcontesthost). If you have any questions feel free to ask. To sign up, just give me the name you'd like to use and the name of your doll who'll be in all of your pictures.


When you sign up, please email me a headshot of your star doll. These will be due September 5th. You'll not be eliminated for these, they are just so everyone can see your beautiful doll. If you've ordered a new doll, (such as Cecile or Marie-Grace!!!) and you'd like to use them but they might not be here for the first round, sign up with your new doll, but tell me if you haven't gotten them yet but they're on there way and I'll give you permission to use a different doll until you get your new doll. Things happen. I know.


Also, I just want to say that Jasmine and Britts and everyone from last season were totally AMAZING!!!! I was so surprised that I won, and I hope some of you guys compete this season.


I don't want anyone to have to drop out this season, so if you think you need to, please email me and tell me why you think you have to so that I could try and make it possible for you to stay.


One last thing (I promise). This is my first time ever blogging, so if you have any suggestions on how I should write these posts, just tell me. I'd love to make this as enjoyable as possible for you guys, so comment if you have suggestions.


Sign up! This season will be lots of fun!!!

Season 6 Final Results

**I know how anxious you all are, but please read all the way through. Don't just jump the the exciting part. I took a lot of time writing this :) **

I want to start off by saying how great it has been to be the Host of this season. I sincerely hope that you all enjoyed the experience as much as I did. I hope to compete with all of you next season, but with the changes that college brings I will more than likely have to drop out before it is done. Anyway, I have received fabulous pictures for every round this season. And now, it is time for me to show you the pictures that our two finalists submitted for Round 10 "Time of Day".

Jasmine with Cynthia

 Amerigirl with Mia

(Sorry it's so small, I couldn't make it any bigger without butchering the quality)

Now, I would like to take a brief moment to say a little something about each of our finalists:

Amerigirl- You have taken some amazing pictures this season! They always have great detail and wonderful composition. I look forward to seeing a lot more pictures from you.

Jasmine- I love your photo style. You always come up with something super creative to meet the topic. Your watermarking is also very good (and I love the text on your final photo). I will be watching for your future photos as well.

Now for the hard part. I just want to make sure that both of you realize how great all of your pictures are and that you are definitely both winners :) Ok... So, the winner of the American Girl Contest Season 6 and Host of Season 7 is....

"Amerigirl with Mia"!!

I will email you soon with the details such as email, blogger, picasa and AGfan message board usernames and passwords. Congratulations!

Jasmine- I want to take another moment to congratulate you as well. You have done very well and I genuinely hope to compete against you next season :)

And now, I bid you farewell. (well sort of...) I have had a great time being your host and I know that Amerigirl and all of our other future hosts will have just as great a time as I did. 

Signing off,

~Karalee

Are you there contestants? It's me, Host.

Lol. But really, I haven't heard from either of our two contestants since I put up the theme which is making me a little worried. Especially considering that their pictures are due tomorrow!

So, when you (Jasmine) or you (Amerigirl) see this I would really appreciate it if you could shoot me a message in some form to let me know that you are on board. If you need a slight time extension I might be able to comply as long as it leaves me time to judge before I have to get serious about packing and moving :)

As of right now though, I'm just going to assume that you are both waiting until the very last minute to turn in your gorgeous pictures :) Please tell me I am correct :) (and then turn them in)

Round 10 Theme

I don't have a song for this round, isn't it sad? Oh well.  I have thought long and hard about this round and I had one idea from when I started that I thought would be for the final round. As it turns out though, I just don't think it fits with our final two contestants :)

So, I have decided the the theme for Round 10, the FINAL round of Season 6 will be...

Time of Day.

What I'm thinking, is basically pick your favorite time of day and take a picture that exemplifies why it is your favorite :) Be creative, make it a beautiful shot and remember, you are both winners :)

Your pictures are due August 11th. But! You definitely do not have to wait until then! The weekend is almost upon us, and as soon as I have both pictures I will do my final post as Host of the American Girl Contest :)

See you soon!

Round 9 Results

I can't decide if this season feels like it has taken forever or if it has just flown by! Either way, I got 3 really good pictures for "Charmed Life". I know that the theme was really hard, but I think you all embraced it and took great pictures. Here they are:

Jasmine with Cynthia

 Britts with Jasmine

Amerigirl with Mia

Now for the hard part...

To make the contest move forward I must eliminate one person. 

I have made the extremely difficult decision to eliminate...

"Britts with Jasmine"

You have done so well this season! I really hope to see you compete again! 

And then there were two.

I will post the theme for Round 10, the final round of season... *one second* Season 6, later today or at some point tomorrow. 

dun dun duuuuuuuun.

~Karalee

Reminder

Just a quick reminder that your pictures are due tomorrow! I don't think that I've gotten any yet, so I'm getting a little nervous. I know that the assignment was a little difficult, so I *MIGHT* give everyone until 3:00 central time Wednesday the 3rd to get their pictures in, but if you think you need the extension, you have to take the time to message me and tell me first. Otherwise, I will assume that you aren't turning one in  :(

Get those pictures in asap!
