Winter Blues Sponsors...

​Our second annual Winter Blues Game on Instagram will begin January 6th, 2025, to  announce our first Juried Show of the year -
The Winter Blues.

This is a fun game which includes gifts and prizes for those that participate with a
Like, Comment, and Share
on our Posts in Instagram letting others know about our Winter Blue Juried Show.

Sign up now to be a Sponsor for the Winter Blues Game!

A sponsor will be any IADR member that would like to offer a bonus gift (prize) to be added to the Winter Blues Game played on Instagram.  A bonus gift can be a tutorial, how-to, or helpful hint for dollmaking or craft.
​
​Why be a sponsor?  For anyone that agrees to be a sponsor, their picture and a short post will be placed on the IADR Instagram account as part of this game.  Anyone that is following this event on Instagram will be asked to Subscribe to the Sponsor's account by Following, Like the post, and Share it to their Story timeline if the player wishes to be considered for the opportunity of winning a bonus gift.  This is a Win/Win opportunity for any sponsor and a way to grow your reach on Instagram.

Also Sponsors will be listed in the IADR Winter edition (published January, 2025) Magazine in regard to our Winter Blues Event.  Winners of the Winter Blues juried event (which is after the game ends) would be published later.

As far as some of the bonus gift items:

• Tutorials don't have to be long.  Just a short explanation on how to make something.
• Same for the how-to instructions which don't have to be doll related either.  For example , it could be explaining how to make an accessory for a doll.  Or it could be how to make an ornament, a jewelry item, or how to sew or create a costume accent.

​If you need help in coming up with an idea and would like to participate, then just email me at  [email protected] or Instant Messenger.
​
Winners playing the Winter Blues Game for these bonus gifts are determined by their participation and support of the Juried Show game posts.  Sponsors and Players both have the same opportunity to win a bonus gift.

Deadline to sign up for being a Sponsor for the game is Dec 30th, 2024.

​Also, I would like to welcome Catherine (Cat) Woody to the IADR family.  She is a Fiber Artist from Texas, USA.  Looking forward to seeing more of her fabulous art and getting to know her too.
