Greetings everyone!

Christmas and the Holidays, no matter which you celebrate, is about a time of giving and spreading joy around the world. And so, without wasting further time, allow us to announce our holiday contest!

:xmas::snowflake::snowflake::santa:THE HOLIDAY ART TRADE ROUND ROBIN!:santa::snowflake::snowflake::xmas:
(This is similar to a contest I saw once in another group. I cannot remember which, but if anyone recognizes it, please tell me so I can make sure they get the credit they are due.)

This contest is themed for the Holidays themselves and is going to be done with the firm belief that everyone deserves a gift for the holidays. So, the process is simple. Comment on this journal with the very simple form included below. The person who comments after you will be doing your request, true to the spirit of the Round Robin!

FORM:::

Request for the Holiday Contest
What I'd like:
Favorite Color:
Favorite Holiday Song/Interest/Theme (Optional, but it might help!):
Favorite Holiday Thing(s):




So, it will look something like this: (NOTE: This is only an example! Actual request is below!)

Oh oh! Here's mine!
What I'd like: A picture of my Silverarte ID with a Christmas tree
Favorite Color: Purple
Favorite Holiday Song/Interest/Theme: (Optional, but it might help!): Christmas Sarievo by Trans Siberian Orchestra
Favorite Holiday Thing(s): Holly



Ok! I'll do that. Here is my form.

<insert Boo-tastic's form here>


This is the general idea of what would take place. For every comment, you will draw or write the round robin request of the person before you. The first person to comment will fulfill my request listed below! The last person will have their request fulfilled by Silverarte!


ALL ENTRIES ARE DUE BY DECEMBER 28th! THESE ARE GIFTS FOR THE HOLIDAYS FOR EVERYONE AND SHOULD BE DONE THIS MONTH.   Entries will be judged on the 28th, with the winner announced on the 29th of December, 2012.

Only people of this group may participate in this contest and all entries should specify that they are for the Art-Trade-Round's Holiday Round Robin in the description. If they don't, we won't have a chance to know they are for it and it will be assumed that they are not. (So please include that information so we know!!) When you submit, please place your art in the folder labeled 'Holiday Round Robin'.

Everyone who participates will receive 20 points from me for just participating. The person who has the most creative presentation of the holidays in their image will be granted among the prizes below. All prizes are currently donated by :iconsilverarte: but if anyone would like to donate any, please send a note to the group!

Note:: You CAN participate in this, even if you are participating in another round. This is entirely outside of the Art Trade Rounds and meant only as a celebration for the holidays, no matter which you celebrate!

Your loving judges are:

EDIT NOTE 12/5: There seems to be some confusion about when entries for the contest will be accepted as for signups. Well, this note here is for you all to know that signups will stop the 19th. So comment away for if you are joining until then! Just remember, all entries are due by the 28th! Every participant for the contest will receive their 20 points upon submission of their entry, regardless of if they are winners or not. Have fun!

Edit Note: 12/12: It seems there were some problems with being able to submit to the Holiday Round Robin 2012 folder. That should be fixed! Thank you everyone for your patience with the issue and if there are any other problems, questions or concerns, please send them in a note to the group and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you again!

Edit Note: 12/18: Last call for the contest! Signups end on the 19th because it's all due by the 28th. So for those of you waiting to sign up, your last chance is now! :xmas:

Edit Note: 12/29: In light of the fact that Silverarte is having issues signing onto a computer at the moment, the entries have one more day to be popped up. We will be judging all entries tomorrow, the 30th, for the winner of the prizes! So, if you haven't gotten your entry in yet, this is your final chance to do so. Look forward to the winning entries!
