Shy Spirit Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Oh boy! I've overdosed on all the glorious eye-candy - thanks so much for posting them now, Dean! I'm very glad that I don't have to judge these incredible entries. Tomorrow I will go over them again - there's so much to see. My daughter showed me how to make the pictures larger. In case anyone else is like me (a little technologically challenged), here's what she told me. After you click on the photo, and then click again to see the bigger view, wait a little with your cursor over the picture - a square with arrows appears in the lower right hand corner. Click on this, and the picture grows even larger. I was poring over every tiny detail - heaven!! This contest has been so much fun - and it isn't over yet. I shall enjoy these pictures for a long long time to come. Thanks to Dean, Tracy, Greenleaf, and all the members who contributed such wonderful scenes for us to "visit".

heidiiiii Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I went fast threw all the pics and this is pre-caffiene ya`ll. I am going to wake up and go back and really get a good look. But from what I have seen: Judges are gonna really need some donuts, coffee, and maybe take out pizza later cause it is going to take them awhile to figure it out!

Anna Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Well first of all I were kicking myself real bad as this week sort of turned out not going as I had planned with the excursion/Camp and students starting it and then the conference that I arrived home from yesterday eve late... It totally messed up my last minute things why I am going to finish it tomorrow I hope as the gentleman I worked on didn't want to behave as I wanted him to LOL so we had a minor "word" ealier, hopefully he will behave later on So when logging in and checking out this thread, oh my :yikes: well, I think I will just sit in stunned silence and go thorugh the pics once more. Thank you all who entered and shared your absolutley gorgous creations, I might put up some pics of my own arbor in my gallery, might that is...

LaurentiaFletwick Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Very often, members of this forum will say "...it will tell you what it wants to be". In this instance, it's truly amazing how much "talking" the Arbor did for each entrant. I'm just blown away by them all! I'm also glad that I'm not a judge because I'd need a LOT of black coffee and probably some kahlua to go in it. Thank you for having this contest and for posting the pix early; it's such a pleasure to look through each scene. CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYONE You're all winners in my book! :yikes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missymew Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Ray and I are both in awe at the amazing arbor contest entries. Each arbor has taken on a separate personality under the hands of each designer. I'm very impressed and so proud to be a part of this creative community. Dean and Tracy - Thank you so much for giving us all this opportunity to express ourselves through these arbor kits. I'm so glad you didn't make us wait to see these creations. Each and every one is so individual and beautiful. -Susanne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Color Me Holly Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I have been drooling over the entries off and on all weekend. Everyone did a wonderful job. I am so happy I am not a judge. I don't think I could decide in five days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumberjacksgurl Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 WOWZERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Holy crow everyone!!!!!!! I am amazed at the different ideas everyone had!! Honestly I am nearly swooning......ok I need more than three hours sleep, a pot of coffee and for this snow to stop (plow went past my house six times while I was viewing the gallery ) I realize now on some of the ways I missed out on this opportunity and have learned much from the posts, (lighting boxes drapes ).....I have much to learn to put together a top class entry but I am happy that I have a little project of my own which is sitting in my wall unit displayed reminding me that this SNOW will eventually stop....won't it?? Coffee......and more viewing.......what a treat to come home and find that the pictures have been made public early. Now the waiting until tomorrow.....I have my ideas on who should be in the top group;) wonderful work EVERYONE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
