Challenge 126- Birthday Cards

Greetings friends. We made it to March already! That means that it is time for a new monthly challenge. Thank you to everyone who participated in the February Flowers challenge. It feels good to be getting back to the challenges.

The winner of both the blog badge and the random prize was Becca Yahrling posting on Flickr. She used cherry blossoms and a heart die from Memory Box as well as a bunny from Poppystamps:

Becca, please contact stampjournal@gmail.com to collect your prizes.

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.  The random winner will also have their card on display for next month’s challenge.

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.

Our latest release is called “Birthday Blossoms.” How could we not choose a birthday challenge for this month. It is also a good idea because who doesn’t need birthday cards on hand?

To enter the challenge, create a birthday card or scrapbook page. All that we ask is that you incorporate the theme and at least one Memory Box product in your finished project.

Here are some birthday card samples to help inspire you. They all come from the Birthday Blossoms release:

There are several ways for you to enter the contest:

1.)  Link your finished work below

2.)  Enter on Instagram by tagging your sketch project with the #mbchallenge126 hashtag

You have until the end of the day (EST) on Monday, March 30th.   Don’t forget, you have to use at least one Memory Box item on your entry and only domestic entries are eligible to be shipped prizes.
