Paparazzi - And the Winner is!

Kailey and I are very excited and happy to unveil our first winner, which is iknowcool's Pregnancy Rumor Confirmed!




Thank you all so much for both participating AND for sending us so many votes!

We've had so much fun doing this, and we loved each and every one of the entries we got!
We hope to see your entries for next month!

Speaking of which, I was also supposed to unveil the prize today for the Candy contest, but I was unable to get to the store this week. I know roughly what I'm going to get, and rest assured there WILL be a nifty prize for this, but I hate to announce it and then have it sold out or something, so I'm going to wait until I actually have it in hand.

February's Theme - I Want Candy!


"The Valentine's Day Bedazzler Strikes Again"
Syd's Not! Entry


I Want Candy!


Everyone loves candy, even AGs!
Do yours love to munch on Skittles? Hold lavish parties with Candy Corn? Or maybe they're a bit more avaunt garde and like to wear dresses of Twizzlers?

Go wild, be creative, dust off that Christmas candy you've still got lying around, and send us photos of your dolls and candy.
Anything goes, as long as we've got an American Girl interacting with some kind of sugary nibblet!


Photos are due by 6pm on Friday, February 19th, 2010
After 6pm, any bribes attempts will be considered, erm, I mean, ignored, and no more entries will be accepted.

There will be a prize for this contest, but I've yet to pick it up/decide what it will be. Please stay tuned for that info! We'll let you know ASAP.

The rules and fine print from January apply. If you're new to entering the contest, please take a few minutes and run through that blog here

This isn't addressed in that blog, but I'd like to mention that
entries are welcome no matter where you live! You don't have to be in the U.S.
As long as you've got a postal service of some sort so that I can mail your prize to you should you win, you're more than welcome to enter!


Please e-mail all entries and parental permission (if under 18) to Syd at starrvingartist@yahoo.com

Questions, comments, and death threats can also be sent to that e-mail, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

I'd also like to mention again that this contest is in no way endorsed or affiliated with the website AGPlaythings. It is run solely by Syd and Aaryana.
We are also not affiliated with Mattel or AG in any way.

This Contest is also strictly for fun, not profit, and it is totally free of charge.
If someone tries to charge you regarding this contest, it's highly possible that my money hungry, slightly-less-than-honest #30, Kei, has hijacked my laptop, and such e-mails should be ignored.

Paparazzi is Closed and Voting is Now Open!

Ninette and Kailey's first contest is now closed!
Originally, Aaryana and I were going to chose three for everyone to vote on, but we just can't chose our favorites, because we got too many that are just amazing!
So we're going to list them ALL for you to vote on, so leave us a comment with the name of your favorite photo (you may also e-mail me your vote at starrvingartist@yahoo.com if you'd like).
Comments on this blog are going to be kept hidden until we unveil our first winner (although if you'd like to comment on the actual entry posts, those will be approved immediately, and I'm sure the photographers would love to see your thoughts!)!

Ninette and Kailey will announce the winner next Friday, and they will receive the pair of AGP cuffed jeans and a red Dallas AG shirt.
