I'm still exhausted, what a SHOW, and I'm in confused shock! So much happened at this show! But here's the guys.....
Nominees-
My avatar, The Phantom, was nominated for a Golden Teddy Award and sold for $1500 at the charity auction (I gave the winner my nomination ribbon)

I had a second Golden Teddy Award nominee- Vignette, no photos yet

AND a TOBY nomination for Ace McPurr, Gambler

I'll get back and tell more tales when I'm more rested. IF no one beats me to it I'll list the TOBY nominees. THere wasn't a list for the Golden Teddy Nominees but I made a short list of artists I know as they read off the nominees. I think they'll post them pretty quickly on the Teddy Bear Review website. One thing Mindy told me is that a lot of Canadians made it into the TOBY nominations this year.

Superb and absolutely no surprises there, Karen; your work is wonderful.  I'm really happy for you.

I sent you a PM a bit ago saying that YES, when you're rested, please come back and tell us more about IDEX.  I'd love, especially, to hear about how your panel discussion went, and I think it will be interesting reading for everyone else here, too.

Thanks for the news and pictures and congratulations again!!!   bear_flower
