$35 Banner Contest...Paypal

[shpgrl]

Hi guys,
I had some great designs for my last contest for Delicious Soaps and would love to do another. I am able to offer more this time, $35 for a Banner Header to go over my new site. If anyone remembers from my last request I had a fragrance shop that closed last summer. But I would like to expand my presence on the web. Unlike Delicious Soaps which is more of a "line" that I will carry, my shop Exotic Essense encompasses all that I do which is make and sell perfumes and custom blended aromatherapy oils and lotions, soaps, etc. and even a little bit of silver jewelry.

I would like a striking header to go at the top of the page of my website. The style does not have to be like the Delicious Soaps logo. This is a fresh start. I envision something hippie like, but modern. Hippie with a twist. But I'm not quite sure what the twist will be! You can come up with the twist!

The banner should read:
Exotic Essense Memphis and maybe list "lotions, perfumes, incense, candles, soaps" (this may change in the final banner) and a pic or two of something relevant.

This contest will be open for 2 weeks (ending September 21) but may end sooner.

Size? I'm not sure, whatever the standard banner size is. This is just something that will go at the top of a page.

republickadesign (last entry, #71)

Thanks republickadesign. I loved this design and that it can go in many different directions, gothic, bohemian, eclectic, etc. Conjures up images of old world bath houses, classic luxury, bohemian luxury all in one. Everyone I showed this loved it. Even those that I didn't think would go for it. All ages.

If there was a 2nd Place, Stealth you would be it!!! I favored yours to the end, and wish I could have had more than one winner!! I just love the concept of the girl with the flower in her hair, hippie all the way!! I still may get this when I get more $$ in my paypal!

Honorable Mention prizes (no money, but a virtual ribbon!)
