Congrats, Karidy, on the 1st place win in Birthdays this year, that gator is adorable!!
Killin' it in the kids birthday challenge - and rightfully so! Every design was unbelievably adorable! Congrats!!
Hey there Karidy – I just had to say thanks for the likes and for the encouraging comment on my non-photo entries :) You are one of the many trail blazers with Minted, and it means a lot that some of my pieces caught your eye! That is one shiny pineapple – Mele Kalkimaka indeed!
Thank you so much for your cute comment, Karidy. It totally made my day getting this from you. You have so many beautiful designs! All the best to you!
Thanks much for the response regarding the text submission. Minted did say that they'd submit those design suggestions prior to voting - but due to the high volume of entries with paired designs they thought perhaps they'd instead be considered a repurpose. SO perhaps there's still hope. If you feel it's a good fit you could shoot them an email. We'd both still benefit from the commission even if it wasn't in the running for prizes. Hope you're enjoying the vacation time!
I so admire your work. Stunning.
Yes, Ms. Walker, I noticed that as well ;)
Wow! Your prints are amazing! If you're looking for other people's Copy to create for, please check mine out at Lizzy Walker/ 2aT. :) Happy creating!
