I had to learn pretty quickly to put together a full page ad for a Doll show.
We were informed that our ads for the show were required immediately if our work was to appear in their show catalog.
That was news to me. I had to whip something up pronto!
This was the best I could come up with in just a few hours:
This will be the first doll show in which I've participated.
It is the
International Doll and Teddy Bear Show
in Asheville, N.C. on June 23-24th
Apparently, the exhibitors are coming from as far away as Russia. Have you ever noticed how many incredible doll artists are Russian?!
It promises to be an interesting event......
I may be in over my head.
I may be in over my head.
May you do very well at this show dear Jeri.
ReplyDeleteI have noticed that needlework and other artisans from Russia do absolutely beautiful work, no matter what they put their hands to. Their work inspires me yet at the same time makes me feel I have much to learn and along way to go.
Have a lovely holiday ~ FlowerLady

ReplyDeleteThanks to all of you for your confidence in my work, I mean it. It' not the sort of show I usually do, but I think it will be very educational. There are some attending artists whose work I really admire and I'm enthusiastic about seeing their creations in person.
ReplyDeleteJeri,
ReplyDeleteI am trying to catch up. I think you have done a great job on your ad for the Doll show, and I am know you will do very well at this event.
Russian Dolls, yes, they are amazing, but I have to say that I believe the best "Doll" artists out there are German. Just my opinion. I sure wish I could be there, but I will be thinking of you.
