******Thank you participants! The entires have been sent out to the other owners and the winners will be declared Monday November 25th!********


Thats right! Im holding a Christmas contest (I know that we haven't celebrated Halloween or Remembrance Day yet but I wanted to give people time for the contest)

With the Christmas holiday just around the corner and our small community celebrates the holidays with enthusiasm, thought it was time to think about the busy season soon approaching. The holidays have a reputation for sneaking up on us and this should be plenty of time for before the deadline   
Every year my family business holds a coloring contests for children during the major holidays but Christmas is a more celebrated holiday in this small community
The business is called the Liard Valley General Store  www.ftlgeneralstore.com

Each year is a hit for the amount of entries for our coloring contests for children ages 3-15. This year we are looking for fresh drawings other then the average pictures from a coloring book (a plain stocking isnt what we are looking for)
Since deviantART is a place for such talented artists, we are looking for festive drawings that children will be interested in coloring 

Requirements
-The theme for this contest is Christmas. So draw a festive holiday picture intended for children (3-15 yrs)
-Please include your signature on the side of the drawing 
-Please no complicated (extremely detailed) pictures since this is focused on children
-The original file will be required after the contest is over (any format will be fine jpeg, tiff, etc) 
-Not necessarily a requirement but we would appreciate having "Happy Holidays from The Liard Valley General Store" somewhere on the drawing
-Please also send a link of your entry to my account to notify me you are entering 

-
Prizes!
First prize! 
 $50.00 or 3000 :points:

Contest deadline
 November 22nd 2013 at 12:00am Mountain Standard Time
Winners will be announced on November 25th

Judges
The five judges for this contest will be the co-owners of the business and we are looking for positive creativity for the festive holiday. That can include christmas trees, reindeer, santa clause, star of bethlehem or whatever the artist can create that will draw children into coloring the drawing   

Please Note
Since this drawing will be for children
-please no mature content
-once the winners have been selected, please send the original file to my account 
-since this will be for a coloring contest, please do not color the picture unless a blank picture is provided
-please note me or contact me for entries for the contest 
-you may enter as many pictures as you like
-any pictures that are stolen or is found without permission from the original artist then you are disqualified (looking for creativity not anything stolen)

Hey, just to let you know, I am working on a pic for this. I know the contest has been over for a couple of days, but I really want to contribute to this great cause.
