Contest Finalists Day 1
Today, tomorrow and Wednesday, I'm going to showcase a different new batch of the entries, and each day, I want you to vote for your favorite one. From there, the top winner from each day will become one of the three finalists to win a Trendy Camera Strap and to be showcased on Thursday for a new poll determining the Grand Prize Winner of the FREE blog from Flosites to be announced Monday August 25 at 11am EST after the premiere of my new promo video for the big announcement!
It was funny noticing some recurring themes in the submissions, so each day is broke up into different category. Today's theme:
Vote for your favorite entry at the bottom!! And for those in the running that have blogs already, be sure to let your blog readers know today and send them over here so they can come vote for you too! Good luck to everyone! And thank you soooooooo much for participating!!! This was so stinkin' fun and I'm glad you had fun with it as well! I also included some of your cool quotes from your emails!

"I'm STOKED about this contest! Thank you for sponsoring it. My husband and I had an absolute blast taking this picture, but I'm pretty sure the drivers on A1A thought we were nuts! Thank you for sharing your work and your personal life with all of us in Blogland. You truly are an inspiration!"

Hi Scarlett! What a fun, fabulous contest you are running! I wish I could have participated, but time got away from me! I love all of the entries, but wanted to let you know that Lindsey, number 1, is labeled as #11. On your survey, it says her name and no 1 and clearly the order in which it is displayed should make it obvious that it is entry 1 and not 11, but wanted to point it out so there are no "politics" for you to deal with later :)
Smooches!
My vote is for number 10. I love everything about it. I love how she set up her desk, and the thought bubble sets it off perfectly.
My vote is for Tara!!!!
Cool entries! There were actually only a few that held a creative sign so that helped narrowed it down a bit for me in my choices. Great ideas though and I love the skirt and boots she wore in pic 1!!
wow these entries are all so great. but my fav would be #2 for sure. But #13 is great as well. I wonder what you would do with this guy ;)
Yay! I'm excited...
Scarlett, I think it lets you vote more than once?
Wow, Scarlett these are some great entries! It was a great idea to let us vote. Now I'm feeling stressed! Hmm...who should I vote for?
OH my gosh!!! Number 5 is super cute! I love it with the tattoo showing!!!! They are all super fun!!!!!!! <3 Valerie
Dawn's shoes are awesome!
I am so excited!! this was so much fun to do... although I LOVE everyones, I will vote for myself...LoL..
#5
Good Luck everyone!
SO FUN. I'm so glad you decided to do it this way so we can all see what everyone came up with! Everyone's was so creative!
So hard to choose, but I think I'm going to have to go with:
#1 - Lyndsay from Pink Coffee Photography
P.S. - right now she is listed as #11 - just thought I'd let you know so you could update it so no one gets confused! :)
Hey everyone! I know, these were sooooo cute huh? Ok, so thanks for pointing out the poll is giving you issues. I am looking into it right now. Just continue putting your favorite vote here in the comment box and I'll add to the votes here to the poll.
Lori-Thanks for pointing out the typo!
Manon- LOL, he's married. ;-)
#5 is the best I'd meet with her if I could!! Plus those are some sexy feet!! :Don
They are all great, but my vote goes to Tara!
My vote goes for #5!
I didn't get a chance to enter :-(
When I first went through the entries, I chose my favorite (#wont say!) but then realized that the criteria for the contest was to wear a fabulous tie or heels and make a creative sign and take a picture holding it. That would eliminate #2,#5,possibly #7,#10 and #11. They are all great though! My vote is for #8-Missy. Her sign is creative, she is holding it and her shoes are fab!
#1
Lyndsay of Pink Coffee Photography!
So trendy and creative!
Love it!
#2!!!! I love it!
These are all fabulous, but I have to vote for Lyndsay of Pink Coffee Photography. I can't believe she got into those hot boots and stood out by the road with her suitcases!! Too cute!
I am voting for Lindsay #1 from pink coffee photo art, great job!!!
My vote is for #6 - Go Summer! :)
I just fixed the polling problem, so please use the new poll at the bottom of the post for voting from now on!! The results will be added to the previous poll that wigged out.
But feel free to keep leaving love notes here for the finalists!!
#7 is so creative! I votefor 7!
Amy W.- But the first and most important was 1. Be creative!! :-)
Well how fun are ALL of these!!! Tough decision! :) I'm kind of drawn to Lindsay's though - standing by the side of the road with cowboy boots, a tu-tu like skirt and Louis Vuitton luggage is too cute. And by the way, I totally would have entered this contest but since I just won one of yours and one from Blu, I thought I'd better lay off the contests for a bit. ;^) I would love to spend a day with you though!!
This is SO awesome!!!!
I LOVE LOVE all the entries!!!!
Number 2 is fabulous! I vote for Kayla!
My vote is for #1 Lyndsay. I love this picture not only are her shoes fab but her outfit as well. You go girl!
~Tiesha
the best creative photo is #1. the Shoes, the hair, the bags, the skirt and the balls to look silly on a street. second choice #2. i really hope one of you win. there is no comparison!!!
The poll says I've already voted, but I haven't. Anyway, my vote is for #2, Kayla.
Wow, there are some really great shoes out there...makes me want to go shopping, which is JUST what I need, lol. ;-)
In regards to Amy's comment... I was wondering too if we were allowed to break the rules. I chose not to and hope it pays off. But I did vote for someone who did! If I were going to break the rules, I would have had my daughter wear my shoes and the sign would say, "Mommy wants to spend a day with Scarlett."
I am sorry but I can't vote for just one. You have a really tough decision on your hands...and this isn't even all the pictures!
My favorites are 1,2,7,8,11.
But they were all great and very creative! Good luck for all the entries!!
I don't understand mean people. Seriously.
I've been getting some emails about rude people emailing some of the people in the lead accusing them of cheating and voting multiple times for themselves. Just so everyone knows, I have it set so that you can NOT vote more than once from a computer or IP addreess. I've even tried myself and it won't let me. So unless there is some kind of glitch I don't know about, the people in the lead for each day are winning fair and square.
I have seen how some people have posted things on theirblog, bulletins on MySpace, Facebook, Twitter and photography forums rallying people to vote for them, so through all these resources on the world wide web, yes, some people have a natural gain over others.
So chill out people! This is all good fun and a celebration of creativity!! Not something to get heated about!
I LIKE ALL THE PICTURES BUT THE PICTURE #5 LOOKS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND ELEGANT. I LOVE HOW IT INCORPORATES THE TATTOO, THE SHOES, THE SIGN, AND THE BRACELET. EVEN HER TOES LOOK LIKE THEY WERE PAINTED WITH BEAUTY IN MIND.
I love #7! Tara is so creative to make a sign with stickers on her leg! I bet that took forever! LOL. I also like #1 and #13!
I vote for #7. This was so creative!!! #1 is also very cute but I have to give it to Tara Brooke...GREAT idea!
I love #7! It is so creative. I also love #1. I wish I could vote for both!
definitely #1-freakin adorable. :)
