Photo Contest......

There was one entry for the photo contest I posted 3 weeks ago. I had plans to do regular photo contests and giveaways if this idea got people involved. Next month was going to be a cash prize with a free re-root, but due to only receiving one entry, I will not be having anymore contests or giveaways in the foreseeable future. These things take participation to work, and that didn't happen. 
I would be lying if I said I wasn't disappointed. 
I am, and my hiatus will continue.

But, until then....



Thank you Tabitha, for submitting an entry. I will ship your new doll to you on Monday. 
Please send me your mailing address via e-mail. (^_^)

  1. I'm sorry Cat, I would have join in on the contest I really had no time to take pictures! Maybe next time not now you can do another one! At this time of the year I think there is so much going people just forget things!

    Funny photo Tabitha!

  2. I'm sorry honey! I kept reminding myself and kept forgetting! It's been so crazy I haven't even made a blog post. I also think being on hiatus and not having you around as a reminder also contributed. I'm not faulting you, everyone needs a break! Don't give up on us!

    Jeez, I hope you have kids one day because you've got mad guilt trip skills. *eyes downcast, shuffling foot*

    Great shot Tabitha!

  4. I'm sorry! I had the perfect picture in mind, but I have had exams. I hope that you'll feel better after your hiatus.

  5. My father has suffered from anemia and underwent a course of IV, I had a fight of epic proportions with my mother because she gave away 5 of my barbies in secret and one of them was the model I had chosen for the photo. I tried it with another but the effect was not the same and I felt very upset and sad, so as to have deleted my blog Volevo Essere l'Amico di Iridella (on Plastic Adventures I'm only a co-admin). Then Ms. Leo with her Mass Blogger made ​​me feel a little better, answer her questions, meet other dolly bloggers,it was fun so I decided to open a new blog and start again. I understand your feelings and you can not imagine how I would have liked to participate in the contest :( Hope you'll be better

    1. Sergio - I could just strangle your mother. When I get to Italy, I am going to look her up and tell about herself. Could be awhile. No plans to come to Italy any time soon.

    2. Many healthy wishes for your father Sergio!

  6. My dog died, but that's not really my excuse. My photo was going to feature Rod and Danielle being walked in on by one of the boys. UNFORTUNATELY, everyone is still at the dog gone (no pun intended. I'm even funny when I'm depressed) wedding reception. I guess if I had been in my normal frame of mind, they could have had a moment alone and still got caught. At this point I am hanging on by a very thin thread. I am so lost without my Teddy.

    2. Vita Plastica - Thanks. He passed peacefully right after I finished the wedding video. As long as I keep busy I am okay.

  7. I'm disappointed I didn't take the time to shoot something for the contest. I thought it was a great idea! Just hired an attorney to negotiate better placement for my child so things are hectic this way too. I totally understand the hiatus. Hope you enjoy your time off.

  8. I am sorry you did not get my entries. This one was not something I could really do. I really could not come up with anything that I thought would work.

  11. Hello from Spain: Sorry you did not have more photos for your contest. I never sent any mine because I do not have the level of your creations and not see that my creations were original. I have to admit that Tabitha's photo is very creative. I feel your anger .. keep in touch

  14. I am not mad or trying to make anyone feel guilty. Sometimes things don't play out the way we think they might, and that is okay. What is life and learning without disappointments along the way? I am fine and still think you are ALL wonderful. I apologize if any of you were upset or took offense to this post. That wasn't my intention. I was only letting every one know what had gone on. I will be back eventually, as I just still need more "me" time. Thank you all for understanding. Also, I am deeply saddened by the loss some of you have suffered in recent months. Life throws things our way that we don't expect and I understand that. You are in my prayers. ***Big Hugs to ALL***

    1. Definitely not offended but I still feel guilty! I know how I would have felt in your position. I probably would have cried and stayed in a fetal position for a few days. Thanks for still loving us!

  15. Hi Cat. I wish that I had submitted a photo; it is a fun idea. Photography is not my strength in blogging - what? no one realized that yet - smile.

    Tabitha's entry though - now that is what I aspire to do. Like you, Cat, and Ebony Nicole - you do great photography. Thumbs up!

    Hope the hiatus brings you back refreshed. Best wishes.
