Any Nibblefesters this month? If so, post your entries!

BTW I finally got caught up with ALL of the awards, they can be seen in the new Awards section on the official Nibblefest Board.

Sorry you missed this month, I just did mine at the last minute again. I need to do some touchups before I can scan though.

I have 3 entries (that is allowed this month, correct?)! I will post them -- but first, might someone be able to remind me how to post images in here? (When I try to upload/embed them in my post, it says my file it too large). Thanks!

And of course your skating monkeys are adorably weird Veronique!

Patience, yes you can list three (as long as no more than one's a print).

I just use the image button & link from my hosting service, I 've never tried inserting a pic from my portfolio here (is that what you're doing?).

Love your pieces Veronique & Olga! I think this is going to be a really good contest, I love winter scenes. I may have to look into what's wrong with my paypal account that's keeping me from bidding! (The last few months I've tried & ebay wouldn't let me bid, something about my paypal account).

Noelle, those dolls look pretty expensive, are they any sturdier than the regular Pullips? I had one that I was afraid to touch, every time I did her foot or something fell off & I ended up selling her.

Ok so I wont be in this nibblefest as I was posting my entry, when I looked at the entrys here this month and wondered how any of these qualified. turns out after a little investigation I did my entry for last Jan Nibblefest! And what year are we in????? Any way I am going to include a picture here, because this was so far out of my comfort zone, and I don't think I could sell it outside the theme, so this will be its one and only unveiling!

Talk about missing the boat. Good Luck to everyone!

BTW I also never saw the annoucement of who won last month. I am really not with it!

That's a shame Alma, your piece is really beautiful! I bet one of the other groups will have a similar contest you could use it for, or just sell is anyway, no contest necessary!

The winners for Dec. were posted awhile ago, you won first place! Go take a look at the ebay board, I rearranged everything to make things easier to find. The awards all have their own section now, and there's a section for "General Info" which contains the rules, themes & anything else important to know.

I don't know how long these pieces take you but if you can work quickly you can also enter for 5 or even 3 days.

Alma, the Ebay Groups boards - the one where you went to join the group & vote in the poll.

hi everyone... i'm back! i'm beginning to sift back into my art after a hiatus while training to be a yoga teacher... here's an old ebsq inspired piece that i've decided to enter in the nibblefest.... it just doesn't feel like "me" anymore, if that makes any sense... :) i look forward to rekindling old ebsq friendships... hope this works...
