[FlameTree Glass]

Thanks Shelly and Cori C-R for following this thread.
I hope you both enter the FlameTree Glass Halloween Contest 2010, and remember the judging this year is done online by online ballot. So the artist with the most friends, goblins, ghosts, and ghouls going online to vote for them, the more your chance on winning!!

Thanks to Glass Torch Technologies for graciously donating torches to this FlameTree Glass Halloween Contest. Without G.T.T. we couldn't have this contest. So, a big thanks again to Walley Horn, and the whole G.T.T. team for help on this wonderful contest opportunity to be able to win your own G.T.T. torch!!! The 1st place prize again is the all NEW G.T.T. Scorpion, perfect for the Ultimate Halloween Contest Prize!!!! Then there are 3 more chances to win, 2nd place is a G.T.T. Lynx, 3rd place is a G.T.T.

Hey Lance...

I just read through the "rules" again, and I realize I forgot to add a little "blurb" description about the piece...but it's quite self-explanatory! :lol:

If I may be so bold as to mention, too...everyone be sure and read the rules all the way through, as I think it's important to know that if you are lucky enough to win one of the prizes, you must relinquish your entry in order to redeem.

Hey, as far as I'm concerned, if everyone (especially FlameTreeGlass!) likes my entry enough to vote for it, I'm happy to trade it for one of these fantastic torches! :)

[theglasszone]

Oh, and while I'm at posting...if I WIN (pffttt!!! Yes, I'm an optimist!) can I just trade my "prize" and entry for that awesome "Mortisa Addams" you have shown in the link? I'm currently sitting on a brand new torch and nowhere to put it! ](*,)

I searched your site but couldn't find her for sale. :( She's completely AWESOME!!!

[bshelle]

The 1st place prize again is the all NEW G.T.T. Scorpion, perfect for the Ultimate Halloween Contest Prize!!!! Then there are 3 more chances to win, 2nd place is a G.T.T. Lynx, 3rd place is a G.T.T. Bobcat and 4th place is a G.T.T. Cricket!!

Absolutely...I entered (at the last minute) last year and even though I didn't win any of the fantastic prizes, it was so much fun and I really appreciated the opportunity.

I've been wanting a Cheetah...I'm gonna have to come up with something cuz I really want that Scorpion now. This is gonna be a fun contest !

[FlameTree Glass]

Hi Bonnie,
Thank you so much for the kind words. Thanks to Glass Torch Technologies we can offer this opportunity/contest to win your very own G.T.T. torch!

Happy Halloween Everyone!!!!
Jodie

[theglasszone]

:) Jodie - your entry is super cute! I love all the murrini in there, and can first-hand appreciate all the work that went into making it! Great job!

Debby, that is the most darling mask ever! Love the colors, and the shape/form is just PERFECT! I'd love to learn to make masks someday...

[glasswhimz]

Thanks DeAnne! I allways drool over your murrini. Debby the mask is awesome.

[FlameTree Glass]

Hi Jodie,
Your entry is beautiful!!! The murrine are great!!! I know that murrine are a lot of work, tedious and time consuming. Thank you for your entry!!! Good Luck!!! Now get all of your friends to go online and vote.

Hi Debby,
Your mask is gorgeous!!! I love it!!! No wonder it looks so nice, if Maestro Emilio Santini helped you with the design!!! I love Emilio!!! He was just here at FlameTree Glass and he taught soft glass sculpture in the Venetian style, and hard glass Venetian goblet making!!! We all learned soooooo much from him, I will be eternally grateful to him for all that he shared with us.
Good Luck with your entry,
Now time to get all of your friends to go online and vote!
Best of Luck to you both,
Warm Regards,
Stay in the flame, and keep it HOT!

I love all the entries so far...Halloween's my favorite holiday. Not sure I'm gonna be able to get anything done in time :-( It's just been one thing after another around here.

Good luck to everyone!

[theglasszone]

Oh, yay! I see there's two more entries posted! :)

Peg, that witch is adorable! And what a lot of work you put into her! She's great...and considering you made the components separately, she's proportioned perfectly.

Now Lea...I'm floored! That bracelet is THE BOMB! I just love the way you integrated that Skeleton Key in there...flipping brilliant!

[Lea Zinke]

Thanks, De! Somehow it just seemed..ahemmm...appropriate!:-P

[FlameTree Glass]

Your piece is beautiful Lea!!! Good Luck!!!!
Everyone's pieces are gorgeous!!!! Good luck to everyone!!!
Don't forget this year is online voting, so the contestant with the most online votes wins!

[Puddy Tat Glass]

I need to know what the deadline for entry is...I know it's Saturday, but what time ?

I may be able to get my entry finished. My Mom's feelin' better, my husband's going to fix dinner for her, pick up her mail and whatever else she needs so I can spend the afternoon at the torch. Tomorrow my sister's going to take over...so I'm puttin' the pedal to the metal :-) I just need to know exactly how much time I have.

[Puddy Tat Glass]

I went back to the FlameTree site to see if I could find the deadline time...didn't find that, but boy was I surprised to find it's SUNDAY not Saturday. I've got an extra day! http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4/4_1_209.gif

Took a look at all the entries while I was there...

DeAnne I love all your murrini and The Scream along with Dem Bones is perfect for Halloween.
Debby your Owl Mask is beautiful !
Jodie your Halloween scene with the Grin Reeper is fantastic, I love looking into those type of beads and finding all the little surprises.
Peg I love your little witch with purple striped socks :-)
Lea that bracelet is to die for ;-) your pressed skulls are fantastic.
http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/8/8_1_222.gif Time to grab a cup of coffee and head to the studio...I've got ghosts and witches to make.

Last year was difficult with so many perfect entries. This year was filled with stiff competition as well. It's always fun to see what the artists will come up with. Congratulations to all of the winners.

Douglas Bloer, I would enter that crystal skull in next years contest. Try photographing with special lighting to show off the beauty of that piece. You did a nice job there.
