This is my entry for Erics PDFs using a heart, hope you like him!

This monkey in a tree was made for a Birthday,
they asked me to leave it at their table at a restaurant before they arrived.
Luckily for me it was very busy and from this monkey sitting on that table I got 3 calls in the next 2 days for more of them!
made my day! so sorry I cannot get the picture the right way.

1, Why do you think you should be awarded the free registration
I would love to receive this award to have the opportunity to attend Twist and Shout to take in some of the amazing talents.
I fell in love with balloon Art just over a year ago when I tried to make a dog for the very first time. Since then I have dedicated myself to learning everything I can about the art. I have been very fortunate to attend many childrens festivals, carnivals and birthday partys this past year. I have found that I have also got a huge interest in Decor and love learning how to make sculptures and delivery pieces as well. I have been given the opportunity to decorate with balloons at a couple weddings now and am about to make my first walk through Heart Arch next week. I have been experimenting with different styles of pillars and arches and love adding that to the art of twisting.

2, How do you think you will benefit from attending T&S 2014
T&S would benefit me in so many ways! I am still very new so although I believe I will never feel like I have learned enough, I have sooo much to learn right now, I have definitely found my passion and would love to learn from experienced artists and see them work hands on. I live in a small town of 5000 in northern Saskatchewan Canada and have larger cities and other small towns all quite close so my marketing area is huge. The amazing part is around here people think I am amazing now!! Balloon Artists are very few and far between in my area and I have come across so many people that think I must have been doing this since I was very young to be so good lol. I want to get to the point where I feel like I am capable of making anything my customers ask for without having to franticallty search you tube for help. I do believe Twist and Shout would help me to reach that goal and it would be so wonderful to meet some of the people that have helped me so much already!

3, Which balloon artist would you like to be teaching there and why?
Ken Stillman, Ralph Dewey, Twistina, Nao Osaka, Robbie Furman, Buster,are just a few of many many extremely talented Artists I would love to learn from.

Hi everyone, I am from Saskatchewan Canada and very happy to be here!
I started twisting about 9 months ago and doing some small decor, arches,pillars and a few centerpieces.
I look forward to meeting you all here.

Hi everyone
I am a brand new twister and am loving it!
I have done very little work and live in a very small town so it may take some time lol.
I do have a couple things coming up and am very excited about them.
Thanks for letting me join and I look forward to get to know some of you!
