Hi Everyone!
I'm Emily, member of the A Muse Design Team. I've had a blast coordinating the fun events here on the A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA blog, and now it's my turn to share our last fun challenge with you! I hope you'll play along!
This challenge is a chance for us to stamp with our kids! And of course, we have a fun prize to be drawn randomly from all registered A*Muse*A*Palooza participants that play! (Note that only you need to be registered, not your children.)
Here's how it works:
- Get out your stamps and let your kids create the cards! No kids? Then create a kids-themed card!
- The card must feature at least one (1) A Muse stamp image
- Upload your child's card and/or yours to your gallery on Splitcoaststampers.com, taking care to include the keyword AP08KIDS1 (for your child's card) or AP08KIDS2 (for yours) in the photo description or keyword box.
- When you're finished, copy the url/link of your upload and post it in the comments area of this post by midnight, SATURDAY July 19th. (One day earlier than usual.)
You may submit more than one entry for this challenge. The more you and your kids create, the more chances you have to win!
Below are some sample cards by my son, Geeta's son, Michelle's friend's daughter Becca, me, Becky Rusher, and Michelle Clark to get you thinking! (Click on each card to see them bigger.)
To see all the wonderful artwork shared by participants for this challenge, click HERE and HERE.
If you don't have a user account on Splitcoaststampers.com, you can easily create one HERE. Splitcoast user accounts are completely free!
All registered AP participants that play the challenge and enter their card as directed above, will have their names entered into a random drawing for a fabulous prize from A Muse!
Have fun - my son and I can't wait to see your cards!
– Emily
This should be fun!! I just hope they don't try to take my stamps and hoard them like I do!!

Thank you so much for a great challenge. My kids love to make cards and were thrilled to find out that they had to use my A Muse stamps.
First one is by my 8 year old son: http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/photo/985734?cat=500&ppuser=99869
Second is my 6 year old son's creation:

Last is the 2 year old who wants to be just like his brothers:
