HOW FASCINATING - MELBOURNE CUP HAT COMPETITION

This year, #twittercup (See previous post) also has another competition being overseen by the lovely Kate.  You can get the goods on the awesome Kate Hunter HERE.

1st Prize

Moroccan Oil for your luscious hair that will be in need of some lovin after Cup Day

2nd Prize

Marita (@leechbabe) has donated this mighty drop

3rd Prize

Denyse (@Denwise1) has donated this fabulous scrapbooking starter kit

I'll hand it over to Kate now to explain the DEETS:

Only two sleeps until Cup Day and guess what your milliner’s going to say if you call tonight to tell him you haven’t got your lid sorted yet? He’s going to say, ‘Get stuffed,’ isn’t he?  The poor boy is up to his perfectly shaped eyebrows in feathers and felt and has been that way since Easter.

But don’t despair! If you are joining the fun of #twittercup, all you need do is pop a hat on your avatar. You can do this ‘in camera,’

Or, if you are clever clogs like me, you can fashion a hat digitally. This is apparently simple if you have a PC (use the Paint app to embellish your jpeg). If you have a Mac, my understanding is you need Photoshop or similar. I’ve been able to achieve an excellent result using iDoodle on iPhone as you can see here.

I guess we need a prize for the hat competition, so if anyone has anything to donate, let us know. If not, the sheer glory and joy of participation should be enough.(Prizes now sorted)
