<b>Please scroll down for results of round 23.</b>
___________________________________________________________
THE BASICS ::

[01] Each round will have a song as a theme.
[02] You must use that song and you must relate that song to the blend that you make.
[03] Each round is the same type of graphic --- blends, let's get better at making those! :)
[04] a. In your graphic, you must have the lyrics of the song, the name of the song, and the artist.
------ b. You do not have to use the entire lyrics, you must have a minimum of TWO verses, however.
[05] The images you use in your blend is at your discretion but no pictures can imply anything against the forum rules.

+++++++++++++++
<center>Song Themed Contest - Round 24
Song :: "In My Arms" by Plumb
Graphic :: Blend</center>

*Song suggested by Arewen Telemnar

In My Arms wrote:
Your baby blues
So full of wonder
Your Curly Que’s
Your contagious smile
And as I watch
You start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight
Knowing

Clouds will rage in
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Story books
Are full of fairy-tales
Of kings and queens
And the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You’ll someday see
The truth for lies

Clouds will rage in
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
Cause you are never all alone
Cause I will always
Always love you

Clouds will rage in
Storms will race in
But you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down
Waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

In my arms
In my arms



Rules:
------Have fun. Find your inner music muse.
------Please post the LINK of your entry and DO NOT use the img tools.
------Initial blend must be 600 x 400 pixels.
------Anyone is allowed to enter --- please do not ask for permission.
------Due date you want to aim for is January 16th I may accept entries a day after that, but sometimes I won't. No guarantees.
------Again, find your inner music-muse. JUST HAVE FUN.

Good times! It's sad, but.... D: It happens. I miss a lot of the old peeps that would regularly join the contest. It was such a joy.

I know what you guys mean.. I think the first one I joined was How to Save a Life... and seeing the people who join then and now it is bittersweet...

I have a category just for your contests Kit under the graphic awards because of the amount of them I have joined...

adding this one to it... hahaha :hug:

Same here. Bloody school. You know, one of the main reasons why I keep joining your contests, Kit, is because you make such lovely awards and I keep trying to get one. :P

@Pandora: Wow, How to Save a Life seems ages ago! And lol, it does seem I probably run too many contests hmm? I have the need to give awards with contests though. It's just not a contest without a just award!

@Cauny: Lol, well it's incentive, if any! You've gotten a few awards from me, I think. I've made so many, I can't keep 'em all straight. I know you definitely got an award for a Natalie Portman round once, simply because all I thought about was how you'd like the award when I was makin' em.

Beautiful entry, Pandora! It's very unique! I love it.

I feel <i>old</i>, I think STC is a good 2 years old while the Screencapture contests is already 3! Geez.

Great entries guys! =D They have been received and documented. =] Also, because the verses of the song are short, it's not a big deal this round. But be mindful of how many lines you put on your entries!
