This is probably a dumb question, but I’ll ask anyway. Contest rules says only one entry for the contest, then part of the rules says (You may submit one entry for each *Ornament category* in this contest.) but it doesn’t give you the categories! Does anyone know? There is what 7 styles of ornaments. Maybe they mean that you can enter a design of each style??? Just curious : )
November 19, 2010 at 5:03 pm |
Sorry, just one entry per person!

This is the 2nd design in our “Jinglz” Christmas line, characters that were conceived as I assisted my son in making his Christmas cards for cub scouts many years ago. Each character has a jingle bell somewhere in their design, and for this design, the lamb carries the bell. The front of the ornament has a very cute and wide-eyed Baby J, with the Jingle Bell Lamb on the reverse as well as the “Jinglz” logo. The star shape of the ornament compliments the star above Baby J’s head.
Best wishes to everyone and their entries—and yes, thank you Zazzle for putting out another contest;)

I hope to get more ornaments made soon but for now here’s my contest entry. It’s my “Feed My Lambs” ornament [Taken from John 21:15, I thought it went well with the photo.] The ornament features a photo of a beautiful stain glass window in my church building. I love the bright colors and think it will look great on any Christmas tree.

I love this idea, great contest. I just really think it’s too bad you are not including entries from artists not living in the US. In general I am missing a lot of your awesome deals just because I live in Europe-Denmark. I love many of your products and have used you a lot but I do think you could do better for us Europeans once in a while.

What a unique contest! I never tire of painting beautiful birds. This year, my original watercolor painting, “Christmas Greetings 2010″ features 5 favorites; Black Capped Chickadee, Eastern Bluebird, Northern Flicker, and a male and female Northern Cardinal. Although the liklihood of finding all 5 of these birds perched in the same tree is very low, as an artist, I took the liberty to group them together in peaceful coexistence! Enjoy!

I have a siamese mix cat who I taught to sit up. I took her photo several times while she was sitting up and with my graphics softwear, created duplicates, put Santa hats on them, a book in their paws and viola!, you have 3 “kitten carolers” singing “jingle bells”.
She really does sit up so the only graphics is the Santa hat, the book in her paws and the musical notes and text.

Just entered my ornament- photo by Paul Bamford and design by me! I am the volunteer Zazzlemeister for the Andean Bear Foundation. Zazzle has been a fantastic way to increase awareness of the Andean Bear. Bubu, the Andean Bear’s many friends on Facebook have been proudly wearing Zazzle designs of all kinds. He has been spotted in the US, Canada, the UK, Ecuador, New Zealand, Australia and all over Europe!! This ornament will be posted for sale the day of Bubu’s release back into the wild- very soon shhhhhhh! His friends know the day is right around the corner and will be sad and glad at the same time!
