Welcome October! It is time for a new card challenge. Thank you to everyone who participated in the "fall foliage" challenge. We are always love to see what you create and to gain new inspiration.
The winner of the blog badge was Greta H from the GG Creations blog. We loved her wintry tree scene. Beautiful:
The random winner of the September challenge and the prize pack was Jenny Martin from the My Paper Epiphany blog.

Want to play along in this month's challenge? The rules are simple - just create a project following the theme, use at least one Memory Box stamp or die on your project and link your entry to this blog post. You can make a card, a scrapbook page, a home decor item, etc.. To encourage participants with various levels of stamping experience, one entry will be selected at random to win a prize. Enter as many times as you want, but your name will only be entered once into the random prize drawing. In addition, the design team will select their favorite entry to be highlighted on the Outside the Box blog and that designer will receive our winner badge to proudly display on their blog.
You don't have to have a blog in order to participate. You can upload your project to any online gallery and link it to this post. In fairness to other players, we reserve the right to remove entries that do not use at least one Memory Box product. You are also welcome to link your design to other challenges. Feel free to grab our badge to post on your blog post or side bar.
Please note, because of issues with shipping internationally, only domestic entries will be eligible to be shipped prizes. We are so very sorry that we had to add this stipulation.
Memory Box has a new Fall Cornucopia release that has items for fall and Halloween. With that in mind, we are doing a Halloween themed challenge for October. How are you inspired to make Halloween cards? Are they funny? Scary? Do they have spooky backgrounds? If you don't make Halloween themed cards normally, you could challenge yourself to make a card with Halloween themed colors such as black/orange or purple/lime green. There are so many possibilities, and we would love to see your creations and interpretation of the theme. All we ask is that you use at least one Memory Box product in your project. The rest is up to you.
Here are some samples to help inspire you:
There are several ways for you to enter the contest:
