How to Enter

Each month a new Holiday or Occasion Challenge will be posted with samples from the 6 design team members. Everyone is welcome to play along with ANY brand of stamps and products they choose. The more the merrier! You can play any month at any time and enter as many projects as you would like. At the end of the month, a winner of the challenge will be chosen to receive the grand prize.

To play, just upload your projects to your online blog or gallery and then leave a link to your creation in the Mr. Linky section on that month's post. When you leave your link, be sure to link directly to the post or gallery page where we can read about and/or comment on your project. Also remember to link back to the challenge blog in your blog post, and use the tag/keyword AO{challenge#} in online galleries. For example, challenge #1 should have keyword AO1, challenge #2 entries should have keyword AO2, and so on. Entries posted on blogs without the link to the challenge or entries posted in online galleries without the keyword will not be eligible to win the grand prize.

To see the entry form, click the link at the bottom of challenge post. Please type your name or screen name in the Caption or Title field, then choose the link and photo you'd like to enter. Please link directly to your specific blog post with your project in it, and not just your general blog address home page.  You can get the direct link to your blog post by clicking on the title of the post and then copying and pasting the address. You can get the link for an upload to an online gallery by going to the page of your project in the online gallery and then copying the url from the address bar and pasting into Linky Tools.


If you have trouble linking your entry from an online gallery (such as SCS), try entering the link to your project in the online gallery, then choosing From File instead of From Web. Then just browse to where your picture is saved on your computer.
