Oh, my goodness. October passed so quickly. It is time to start a new theme for November. We hope you will participate. Thanks to everyone who participated in our October challenge. Your entries were absolutely wonderful. Thanks for the inspiration!
The winner of the blog badge was Pat J over on Splitcoast Stampers. We especially like that she incorporated our wildflower die as a spooky element.
The random winner of the September challenge and the prize pack was LucieG from LucieG Cards.
Please contact me at stampjournal@gmail.com with your full name and US address 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.
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.
November often makes us think of Thanksgiving. There are so many things to be thankful for, but for this month’s theme, we are celebrating food and drink. The last two Memory Box releases had pumpkins, mushrooms and pears, but there are so many food and drink items you can use for cards. Will you make a fall card with apples or cocoa? Will you get ready for the holidays with cookies or cocoa? What about birthday cakes or champagne, or even pizza? There are so many options. All we ask is that you use “food and/or drink” as your theme and 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:
