Welcome to October everyone. It is time again to announce a new challenge. We hope you will play along with the theme through the end of the month. You will even have the chance to win prizes! Thank you so much to everyone who played along with us for the autumn challenge last month. We couldn't believe all the wonderful projects!
The winner of our blog badge for the last challenge is Heidi H from the Stamping, Knitting, etc blog. We really loved her spooking Fall card:
The lucky winner of the draw for the monthly prize is Stamping Kitty, who shared her card on splitcoast stampers.
Please contact me at [email protected] to claim your prize.
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.
This month's theme is a color challenge featuring the colors of black and orange. You can create something for Halloween or challenge yourself to make something for another occasion. Why not make a birthday card or a thank you card? The choice is up to you! You can create a card, scrapbook page, gift, home decor item, or whatever you want. We definitely want to see your interpretation! The only requirements are that you feature black/orange and use at least one Memory Box product.
Here are a few ideas from the design team to help get you started:
