Who's Ready for a CONTEST?!?

Not sure how many of you know this, but Tiffany and I are also children's clothing boutique owners! Tiffany owns Whimsical Willows Couture and I own Dashingly Dainty Designs, we are both sort of on a hiatus right now and have scaled back our boutiques quite considerably while we focus on CKC. However, we have always been supportive of our fellow children's clothing boutique owners and we've made it a point to get to know many of them! It is important to support others and network because this boutique world can be cut throat at times so its nice to have friends! With all that being said, we have decided that we want to have little contest/challenges on our page every couple months so we can all have fun and get to know each other. You don't have to own a boutique either to participate. Even the home-seamstress can use some sewing friends!

This first contest is Christmas-Themed. Personally, this is my favorite time of the year so I am so excited to be starting this now. We want you to create a Christmas Outfit using at least one of our patterns. You have until Friday, December 2nd at midnight EST to email your picture to us at createkidscouture@gmail.com Make sure you include your name, boutique name (if you own one), and the pattern you used to make the entry piece! You are only allowed to submit ONE outfit and it must be pictured on a child so we can see the full effect. You are also only allowed to submit up to three photos, in which we will pick the one we think is best. On Monday, December 5th, we will post an album with all of the entries n Facebook. You can vote there and voting will be held until Friday, December 9th, at 9pm EST.  We will announce the winner shortly thereafter.

Now, onto the PRIZE!!! The winner will receive a FREE 3 pattern pack! They will be able to chose any 3 patterns they'd like from our collection!

We are really excited to see what goodies you create. We have some very talented fans so this is gonna be a fun contest! Good luck everyone.

Happy Sewing!
Shannon (and Tiffany)

Updates!

Well, Tiffany and I have only had our shop open for 4 months and things are going very well! We have 24 patterns available for purchase with 1 out to testers right now and about 5 in various stages of production that we hope to have out by the end of this month.

We are also in the process of opening up our Pattern Shop so that you may pay for and dowload our patterns instantly! I should have the rest of the patterns up and available for purchase tonite!

Our patterns are also available in 7 shops other than our own right now so we are getting lots of new fans to our Facebook page! Speaking of Facebook....we're almost to 1000 fans! What should we do?

Happy Sewing!
