Activity Two Winners
and Activity Three Photos Due March 1st

Who won Activity Two???


Well after tallying the votes and much deliberation...

Photo Number 27


and Photo Number 44


Won Activity Two!


Congrats Winners! You are now entered in the Final Round to compete for fantastic prizes!


For everyone else, Activity Three Photos "Being Charitable" are due Thursday, March 1st.

We only have two entries for "Being Charitable" right now, so your chances of winning are currently pretty high if you enter. You have ten days to create an entry and send it in to nora.demington@gmail.com.

Don't be sad if you didn't win Activity Two - keep trying friends!


Activity Three: Being Charitable

Here is your opportunity to highlight a cause close to your heart.

Step One: Pick a charity!

Step Two: Show us a picture of your doll(s) doing something to help that charity or related to it in some way. We don't recommend having your doll just holding up a sign for the charity - be creative peoples!

For example, you could choose World Wildlife Federation as your charity - let's help endangered species get back on track! You might show your doll being smothered in a sea of panda goodness. Or maybe just feeding a baby panda. We recommend using a stuffed toy for that. China doesn't lend out baby pandas for doll photo shoots. We already asked.

But of course your charity can be anything. Curing cancer. The Hiefer Project. AIDS Awareness. UNICEF. Doctors without Borders. Animal Rescue. Juvenile diabetes research. Habitat for Humanity. Foodbanks. Natural disasters aid. Teach America. Sierra Club. Ronald McDonald House. The list is endless. If you don't already have a charity in mind - do some internet research, ask your friends and family for their suggestions. There are so many great causes out there to support.

Email us the photo at nora.demington@gmail.com. And include some info about the charity you chose to support and your ideas for the photo.


As a special bonus we will make donations to the two charities represented in the winning photographs from Activity Three. :-)


There will be two winners for Activity Three, just like One and Two.


Please enter! We appreciate your participation!


BIG P.S. We are leaving for LA soon and there will be a brief hiatus in posts.

Sorry about that! We were going to schedule some, but ran out of time. :-(

At least we announced the winners, right??? Haha.

So please stay tuned for more posts when we return!

How many votes did they get?

Nora and Maple said...

Well, we aren't going to say how many votes people get. We will tell you how we choose a winner.

We tally the votes. Then we mark the top 50%. So there were 64 entries in total, and there were 32 top spots.

Then Penny looks at all of the 32 top entries and picks two from those.

So it is a combination of votes and Penny's decision.

See?

Oh, this made my evening! Thank you! I don't win photo contests very often, so I'm still in shock to see my photo up there. However, I do love the way it came out, and I had a blast setting the scene up. I don't use my birthday party accessories very often, so it was a great chance for me to actually use them.

Congratulations to the other winner as well! I definitely voted for that photo. I love how she created the beach.

Now to think up ideas for the Final Round...

Thanks! I was so excited when I heard. The day I took the beach picture it was 25 degrees outside and the sand was frozen. But I had a blast and I love the birthday party.
