2nd Annual Bead Show & Sale - Postcard Image Competition

Deadline: February 15, 2014
Competition Coordinator: Helen Breil

We are looking for a bold, colourful and photogenic beaded item from one of our talented members to feature on the 2014 Bead Show & Sale advertising material. 

Here are the rules:
  1. Must be a GRBS member.
  2. Maximum of 2 items can be entered per person. 
  3. Any form of beading-related item is allowable. 
  4. If chosen as the winner, you need to be able to part with the piece for up to a   month for the final photography. 

There are 2 ways to enter:
  1. Take your own picture(s) and send it to me via this email address before the Feb 15th deadline.
  2. Bring your piece(s) to the January 20th meeting and I will photograph them. 

The Process:

Once all the submissions are in, an anonymous gallery of all the images will be created and the competition jury members will each choose their top 3 picks.  Results will be tabulated and the winner chosen.   The winning piece will then be passed to the Competition Coordinator for photography and the postcard/flyer will be designed to complement the image.    

We have a very talented membership.  Let's see your best work! 

Any questions, please contact me.
