This week we are getting wacky! Your challenge is to create a card design for a non-traditional celebration. Did you know that Friday is "Take Your Dog to Work Day" and Saturday is "Let it Go" day!? How about a "Congratulations on Cleaning your Stamp Space" card - LOL! So many silly possibilities, so have fun! You may use your choice of ink, papers, colors, stamps (please use at least one A Muse stamp if possible), embellishments, etc.
Leave a comment on this post (one comment per card) and include a blog or gallery page link to a photo of your new original creation by midnight Pacific time Sunday, June 24th. (Cards must be new creations not previously posted or submitted to any A Muse contest.) Then we'll draw a random winner on Monday. This week the prize is a SURPRISE!
You may submit more than one entry for this challenge - the more you create, the more chances you have to win!
Click here for a sample by designer Heather Meeson from her "Talk Like a Pirate Day" party!
Don't have a blog or online gallery? Leave a link to your card photo from your online photo album (such as Kodak EasyShare, Snapfish, Flickr, etc). Or see our links at the end of challenge 1 to setup a Splitcoaststampers gallery.
Can't wait to see all your silly celebration creations!
I know this is totally obvious and not original at all but - let's celebrate Christmas in June-
