Title: Outrageous Cab Contest! June - July 2015
Post by: MrsWTownsend on June 06, 2015, 01:11:05 PM: Rules:
1) Cab must be made by you.
2) Cab must be made within the time period of this contest. NO pulling old cabs from your storage baskets!
3) As long as the basic shape is considered a cab it's golden. You can enter intarsias and carved top cabs such as cameos etc. After all, this is the OUTRAGEOUS cab contest! We love free form cabs! Pull out the stops and give us the best you have!
4) One entry per person please!
5) Please show photos of your slabs and preforms if you can so we can see your thought process and how you did things.
6) No finished jewelry pieces. Just the cab.
7) Cab sets are OK.

Let the games begin!!! :toothy10:

Post by: palmwood13 on July 02, 2015, 10:14:47 AM: Sandsaves looks like a duck with a seal looking over its shoulder in the bottom right part of the cab. Great work on both of the cabs i like the colors in the first cab and the 3-D effect.

Post by: Redwilder on July 31, 2015, 03:57:11 AM: I'm pretty sure that this was brought up before, but I can't remember if it was resolved or not. If my stone isn't acceptable in this contest, then please disregard. My entry is a double sided cab with a hole drilled through it. Ok...so it's a bead. Anyhoo...back at the end of June, I went with my club to McDermitt for a rocking good time. A side trip we took was to the Amethyst Mine where I may of went over board collecting rocks. Couldn't help it...it is after all, my favorite stone! Welp, here it is. All shades of purple, streamers, and plumes. One BIG ol stone to weigh my neck down

Post by: Enchantra on July 31, 2015, 08:29:08 AM: Well unless someone else in the administration says otherwise, I say it's fine and perfectly acceptable to have here.
