marispurple Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Out on a limb here- but I'm thinking: otterine, kite house and shoemaker shop... Then again, maybe the island (my granddaughters favorite), or... (fill in the blank). Hard to say 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iseecerulean Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 I'm placing my bet on Jo for first place 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Med Posted October 6, 2012 Share Posted October 6, 2012 Thank you so much Keli for the vote of confidence. Whoever wins, the fact that someone thought your entry deserved a prize is a huge boost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THmini2 Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 My fling had a visitor! I had it in the sunroom (3 season room) and a mouse or chipmunk must have gotten in. I looked at it yesterday and I thought the grass was faded from the sun. Looked again and said WHAT THE...the grass was gone glue and all. I don't know what he/she is would do with it. Food, bedding? He/she was considerate though as there were no teeth marks. At least I can fix the grass. That was all that was done to it luckily! What a surprise! A question...how does Greenleaf notify the winners. E-mail, phone? Just wondering. I hope we find out the results this week! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have me running away with the loot! :lol: Charlan and her sister won last year for their beautiful Downhill Ski Shop. My fling had a visitor!

I hope we find out the results this week! At least he/she didn't kidnap the Mole!!! :lol: Only the first place winner is notified in advance by email; the rest are revealed here on the forum.

marispurple Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Brae- and you would tell us if you got that email, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Med Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Just checking in but I see there's no news yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellyannmo Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 the suspense is killing me.... LOL.... I am just itching to see the gallery with all the entries we haven't seen yet.... and far as the winners.... I have my own personal favorites, and hope they are the winners of course that being said.... everyone worked so hard and all the entries are just gorgeous... so all the entries are really winners in the end 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Med Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Well said Kelly. We all have our favourites but each one of us will have different favourites which just shows how difficult a job judging a competition like this is. Give the judges a couple of days off when its all over Dean - well at least the ones who didn't start any punch-ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 :lol: Maybe we ought to send them a case of wine to celebrate the announcement of the winners. We want them to be happy when their job is done. Don't want them to remember how hard it was to choose. Wouldn't want them running to hide when next year's judging comes around! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marispurple Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 So- if the winner doesn't respond to their email, does that delay the "reveal" process? How long has it taken in past years to see all entries in one album? I didn't realize there would be more entries than those we've already seen on the forum. I'm salivating!

havanaholly Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 ...I didn't realize there would be more entries than those we've already seen on the forum...Lots of nonmembers enter the contests, and not all of them join up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creamcheese Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Holly, I didn't realize that a non-member would even know about the contest. I wonder how many entrees there were? It sure would be nice if Dean would give us a hint when the judging will be finalized. Does it usually take this long? Since I'm new at this I have no idea what to expect. It sure was fun participating for the first time this year and what a wonderful community to now be a part of!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havanaholly Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Holly, I didn't realize that a non-member would even know about the contest...One of the reasons that I get all paranoid about sharing personal info here is that anybody can & does read the site. We're delighted so mini people find us through the contests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THmini2 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 I am surprised that Dean hasn't appeared on here yet. He usually lets us know what is going on. Judges can't decide, etc. I am really hoping to know this week. The suspence is driving me nuts. lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THmini2 Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 Well off to work. Guess I will have to check back later. Where is everyone? The board has been so quiet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Med Posted October 9, 2012 Share Posted October 9, 2012 It has been quiet Teresa. I keep checking in. Haven't heard anything personally so I guess I'm out of the running but I'm still itching to know who the winners are. HEY DEAN - yoohooo - where are you all with the judging process?

LindaC Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 jo, you are NOT out of the running. No one has been notified that we know of. Dean, Yoooohooo what Jo said :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I can tell you exactly when the announcement will be made and the Spring Fling 2012 Gallery doors will fly open: Friday morning, October 12, three days from now. How do I know this? We'll be driving to New Orleans, on the road all day, and I won't have access to a computer. Oh, the agony! Life has some cruel moments. *sigh* 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
