Design Inspiration Contest

{ I need your help! }

I've been so busy with work-work (during the day I'm a chef at a local cafe), that I haven't had a lot of time to come up with my Outfits of the Month.  So I came up with this fun challenge, where one lucky winner will receive a { LIMITED EDITION } Outfit from Camelot's Treasures!


ENTER:

It's pretty easy.  You compile a bunch of pictures/images of outfits that you would like to see on your doll and ONE lucky winner will win an outfit that they "created" featured as the December 2013 Outfit of the Month in my Etsy shop.



{ The Deets }


This contest will start October 1st and end October 31st.
To enter our contest, first follow Camelot's Treasures on Pinterest.
Sample of a Outfit you can Pin
found on Polyvore.com
Create a board called “Camelot's Treasures Design Inspiration.” Your board must have at least 1 pin, featuring an outfit you would like to see Camelot's Treasures make for the December Outfit of the month. If you need to make several pins to create the complete outfit, please write in the description that it's part of the same outfit (ie: Pants for Outfit #1, Shirt for Outfit #1, etc). You may enter several different outfits, just be sure to annotate it that way in each description.

Once you've created your board, post the link to your board in a comment to this blog so I can follow it.
Add the hashtag #camelotstreasurescontest to each pin with a description of what you like about the garments.
On November 1st, Camelot's Treasure will select several design entries and pin them to a special Semi-Finalist board.
The semifinalists will then be voted on by followers of Camelot's Treasures. Followers will vote by commenting on the pin of their favorite outfit on this board opened from November 2nd to November 15th. Repinning of your favorites are always welcomed!
On November 16th the semifinalist with most votes will be the grand prize winner and their design will be featured as Camelot's Treasure December 2013 Outfit of the Month. The winners designe will be available to purchase in Camelot's Treasures shop on Etsy the entire month of December!


{ The Prizes }

The grand prize winner of the contest will receive their Design Inspiration made for them for FREE (valued at between $29.99 to $49.99) and receive credit for the inspiration behind the design in the listing for the December 2013 Outfit of the Month in Camelot's Treasures Etsy shop.

School Bus Bunch - Fall Collection Released!


Did you notice yesterday, we started to list our new Fall Collection?

This year I have decided that I am making it a goal to make special collections for each season of the year, with a common theme in mind.  I started working on "Peace Be With You" with no clear concept in mind, but once it came together, I thought "Hey!  This would be a great first day of school outfit!"  And so the idea was formed to make a bunch of outfits inspired by the many girls and their different personalities.


As you can see, each girl and outfit has a different twist to it.  HOWEVER, the best part of all of these outfits are they are interchangeable, as are most wardrobes.  Don't want to wear a skirt with your oxford shirt - NO PROBLEM!  Pair it with a cute tank and your jeans for a fun look!  Or add a pair of legging's to the Class President Sheath, to dress-down her "election outfit".  Variety is the spice of life, right?!


Anyway, you can find these, and all of the fabulous fashions handmade by me, at Camelot's Treasures Etsy Shop.

♥ Oh, and BTW, did you already enter to win a FREE leotard made by me?  Check out this post to find out how! ♥

Summer Olympics Giveaway


Ok, I know ALL of you have been watching the Olympics.  Every four years, I can't help but get excited to see all the awesome athletes show off their talent and heart to win the gold.  Every four years, I end up watching a new sport, and/or learning about an event that I didn't realize was a part of the Olympics. However, my favorite has been and will always be Gymnastics.  The grace and strength that a gymnast has just amazes me!  

So when I saw that Stacy and Stella posted on their Facebook page that THEY were looking for pattern testers for a leotard, I jumped on it!  Here's Bridget modeling our version of the leotard in red and silver (go Team USA!):
Ouch, can you do that?
She "stuck" her landing!

After submitting my feedback, I decided that this leotard was too cute to just keep to myself.  One lucky Camelot's Treasures' fan will get a chance to win this fantastic leotard, so their doll can join in the Olympic spirit!

All YOU have to do is comment on this blog - that's it!  Comment on the Olympics or whatever, just be sure to leave your email address (or your parent's) so you can be contacted if you are the lucky winner.  If you would like an extra entry, share it on Facebook or Twitter - but be sure to tag us, so we see it! The winner will be announced on Sunday, August 12th, when the closing Olympics Ceremony will be.  Easy peasy :)

Of course, not everyone entered will be able to get this leotard for FREE, however there will be more listed in the shop soon.  Or, if you're a fellow seamstress, then check out Stacy and Stella's Etsy shop for this or several other fabulous patterns!
