Newcastle, OntarioOh Shelli, "piggy porker" is fantabulous!!!!! This HAS to get a nomination!!!!!! I love all your creatures, but this one has such charm and those lovely big eyes with the long lashes are amazing. Really Shelli, I think you should be soooo proud of her. Did you enter her in both the Golden's and the Toby's? I didn't enter the Toby's this year - way too busy with house work, but I did enter my racoon in the Friends category for the Golden Teddy's. I also entered a mini bear and my Christmas piece in the tableaux for the Golden's. I feel badly, as I can't even post pictures because hubby got a new computer and I've dismantled mine. I don't have access to my picture program and they have all been sold. Good luck with all of your entries.
Hugs,
Brenda
OH, bummer... I would have loved to see your photos. Hopefully, I will, when they get published as nominees.
:)
I did enter IN HOG HEAVEN and PIROUETTE in the GOLDEN TEDDY, but not POSY, as she was started, but not yet complete, by the deadline.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I am proud of her and she drove me bonkers to make, so I guess that's something.
oh my i have never seen such a wonderful looking pig, Shelli you are so amazing and i always look forward to seeing what you have been working on as i know it will be something special and outstanding :clap: :clap:

Seriously, very creative. Love her.
Oh darn it all anyway! Now I wish I hadn't entered this category. 
Oh well. The paperwork and pictures are already in the mail. 
Shelli, your piggie is FABULOUS!! 
Best wishes to you,

Back Road BearsI've looked and looked at her pictures and just now, after the 5th time, am seeing those hoofs!

Posts: 139Wow, Shelli! That is some pig! 
She's almost unbearably cute.

Gee, I should spend time away from here more often. The compliments just POUR in, in my absence! Laughing here...
Really, you flatter me (keep it coming.)
In seriousness... I'm tickled you all like this little gal so much. She was this idea I had that I could NOT get to work for the longest time; she drove me absolutely bonkers. So it means a lot not just that I got her finished, but that she seems to be touching people in just the silly way I hoped she would!
Thank you so much for making my week with all your really nice words!
:hug:
Oh darn it all anyway! Now I wish I hadn't entered this category.
Puhlease, Aleta, my dear. Have you ever actually LOOKED AT the superb, charming, completely adorable creations you make?
Criminies, woman.

She makes me giggle, what can I say??? Once more, I'm amazed at all the hard work, and new techniques you've tried out to reach and achieve your idea for her. I think you should be very proud of your piggie girl!
:hug: Aleta...don't bash yourself up!! You make some incredible creations too!!! :hug:
Canna Bear PaintOutstanding creativity and a LOT of hard work went into this one, and what a fine swine she is (I don't get to say that as a compliment very often!). All of your entries are just beautiful, Shelli, but I think my favorite is the piggy. She has STYLE and a look that says, you better believe it!!! I love the friends category, this makes me wish I could see ALL the submissions, it must be one glorious menagerie.
Hugs,
Kelly
Bine-TeddiesLovely pig Shelli. You continue to stretch your abilities and out-compete yourself. Best of luck to you as to all the others. Its going to be a tough race.

bears by beesley TMShelli, this little girl (calling her a pig seems almost cruel) is the most adorable and beautiful creation. She brings a smile to my face and a tear to my eye. I can only dream of every owning such a beautiful Potbelly creation! She is beyond outstanding!

Well, thanks all! I didn't expect any more commentary on my little swine so that makes the nice compliments all the more special and welcome. THANK YOU!!!
HannabearsShelli, at this late date I just found your sweet piggy girl, and she is precious. So much fun to look at over and over again. Good luck in the contest, she sure looks like a winner to me.
