Title: May Comp Balloons. (Mermaid)
Post by: Graham Lee on April 28, 2015, 02:57:32 PM
Just getting ready for the May complimentary balloons competition for those that do order balloons from us.
This month the challenge will be a mermaid and the DVD prize will be a Patrick van De Ven DVD.

This is what will be supplied in the packs to make the mermaid, any additions to your entry will be nice to see.
The full instructions on how to make this design are posted here on the model of the month section, post72977.html#p72977 (http://balloonchat.co.uk/post72977.html#p72977)
Good luck and looking forward to seeing a few entries.

The pictures have all dis-appeared from all over the forum, balloon chat was moved to a new server and things did not quite run as smoothly as we had hoped.
We are hunting for an expert in phpbb-seo that can help with the little hic-ups.

So 16 days into the month and no one as yet has entered the mermaid competition, the balloons are in orders that have been placed in May.
This is the picture, hoping we get the others back soon,

Here is my mermaid. I raffled it in a competition to raise money for jigsaw my local children's hospice. Ella's daddy bid the highest and I raised £25. Every bit helps.

We had the forum changed last Sept time so any size picture could be posted, not sure what the problem is. You can resize, here are the details,

The May competition closes on the 7th June and we draw the winner from the hat.............well plastic bag actually on the 8th June.
We only have 3 entries at the moment so the odds are pretty good.

I made a mermaid the weekend at a party I was twisting at and changed the 260 tail for 160.
