    My 2 cents - I'd personally wear wings design. I think it looks amazzzinng and has a great sort of 'fashionable' appeal - plus it seems more mature and unique in it's design. It's recognisable.

    ***Contest Results***

    I am choosing winning designs by msabas, wings, MD&E, serafima, doori, and piccalaqui as winners. Unfortunately, 99 Designs will only allow one winner, so I will choose one of those when final designs are delivered.

    All of you have done an amazing job and I thank you all for your submissions!!

    ***Great designs in the final day!!! When thinking about designs including a woman icon, please remember to focus on empowerment (not aloofness) on internal strength and wisdom, focused upward! Even if it's in the tilting of a head upward, or the pulled back shoulders or chest slightly tilted toward the sky, it is important that the woman not look bitter, cold, or too hurt.

    Finally, please do continue to submit in primary colors, including street, woman, abstract colors, and GodsDaughter (TM) Welsome to the family on all.

    Remember, I am looking for up to 10 designs! There are certainly enough great starts here that more than one designer will be rewarded!

    Thank you all so much for your submissions! It has been a blast to see how incredibly artistic all of you are!!!***

    Here are some of my favorites from Sinful that I would like you to use as a reference with the specific themes of a womans inherent soul-beauty, true value, and right to be protected and cherished and empowered being wrapped up in her connection to her Creator

    Other designs showing the type of gold foil treatment (or silver foil) I would be looking for as well as expansive design:

    ***Contest Guidance***

    Please look at these whole 3 pages of designs that really have some of the feel of what this design is going for...

    http://www.rock-rebel.com/m-28-sinf…?pagenum=1
    http://www.rock-rebel.com/m-28-sinf…?pagenum=2
    http://www.rock-rebel.com/m-28-sinf…?pagenum=3

    Note how they will have big designs on front and other messages on back, and how they take up the whole shirt. Designs may be visually understated at times but the sum total is meaningful.

    How do you see that working with the woman's empowerment, value, and street that I am looking for...all under the GodsDaughter(TM) brand with the idea of "Welcome to the family" on the back?

    Right now, #48 is closest to what I am looking for in terms of:
    1) size of the image in relation to the shirt (if anything, I would like the wings on #48 to extend, even if they were fading out as they did, all the way up to the shoulders)
    2) the themes of ornate with a central image and word on the front
    3) The GodsDaughter and Welcome to the family verbiage and design on the back

    THAT is the format that I am looking for and you can see how it fulfills the design requirements in a really unique way. I have commented on the particulars of the design that I would like changed and encourage you to review those comments, and add your own shots at idea, making sure that it is close to that overall design format

    So in summary:
    -Big abstract design spreading over the entire front of the shirt in a balances way while maintaining a central focus.
    -Theme of Chosen, Beautiful, Precious, or Priceless as theme of focal point. Adding mirrored or polished silver or gold treatment here (over the theme letters) will be great, as will adding that same gold/silver and/or splash/dab of primary color at meaningful places in the design.
    -"GodsDaughter(TM)" and "Welcome to the family" on back, side, or somewhere that is in that same Old English or similar (graffiti, etc) with shiny, polished gold/silver highlighting.

    This is SO close!!!! Can't wait to see what is submitted!
