Simply Glam

The fun part about Stella Marie modeling is getting asked to take pictures by stores you have never even known.

I got asked a couple weeks ago if I would take pics for this store

Simply Glam.

The pieces came in the mail on Monday and I could not wait to dress her up and take some pics.

They are made very well and are just LOVELY!

I had to add this picture into the group too it is not from Simply Glam .

This hat comes from a friend's shop

Princy n Paris!

Winners

I get asked all the time why do I have voting contests?????????

It seems to be the best way for me to gain fans.

Why do I want fans????

The more fans I have the more I can promote other peoples handmade items.

I LOVE sharing new finds off of ETSY!

I really LOVE photographing new designs and sharing them with you all too!

So that is why I do it!

I wish I could have everyone that enters win a FT design but at last I am a MOM to 4 kids and I barely get the photographs and few items I do make done!

But once again I was AMAZED at all the votes.

It was the first time on my blog because of the new FB rules but you all just helped me out so much. I doubled my blog numbers and added several hundred new fans to FB!

What I will do in the future is alternate with voting contests and judged contests!

That way you all get a chance without having to ask for votes.

Believe me I really understand. I never win the contests that are voted on!

Soooooooooo with that being said I can't wait to see both

Julie

Haley

in new FT designs.

I need both winners to email me at jennmanderson@yahoo.com with each one of their cuties sizes.

Please also remember that I will have the outfits out to you by the 1st and I will need pictures of your little ones in the sets too by the middle of Jan. Please let me know if this will be a problem.

The random winner of the 25 dollar gift card is

Please email me to redeem your gift card.

Thank Thank you all for your support and votes!



Naming Contest for newest Forty Toes design

I am so excited to be doing another one of the  Naming Contests. I LOVE seeing little ones in my clothes. I usually do them on my facebook page but with the new rules I had to post the pictures you have submitted to my blog. This is my first time doing it this way so I am hoping it will run smoothly but if not I hope you all will be kind and understanding.

One of the past winners of this contest is Jenna. She did such a GREAT job modeling for Forty Toes.

This is still one of my all time favorite dresses I have ever made. I made one just like it for Stella Marie this year for our family Christmas pictures. I can't wait to share the pictures.

So the contest will run like this.

You will be able to place two votes.

1. You place your vote and then must say blog follower for it to count.

2.You can vote again for it to count you must like my page http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Forty-Toes-Photography/120367881314324 and post that you have for the vote to count.

The only way anonymous comments will count is if you leave an email address with each one of your comments.

The fun part is not only will the person with the most votes get to model the next Forty Toes design but I will pick a random winner from the voters that will win a 25 dollar gift certificate to the store.

Voting will take place now until Sunday Night Dec 19th.

Please know that the winner of the contest will be modeling for Forty Toes! The pictures do not need to be professional. It is GREAT if you are able to do that but they do not need to be. Here is a picture I took of the first time my baby girl Stella Marie ever modeled for an ETSY seller.

I am forever thankful to http://www.kbellabambino.etsy.com/. Because she posted this one picture to her Etsy page my baby girl got noticed.

Happy voting!

Contest ends Sunday Night Dec. 19th.

The winners will be posted on my blog Dec 20th!
