Hello!
Welcome to the launch post of the 2015 Take It, Make It Challenge.....
We have lots to tell you!
We are changing things around a little...giving our challenge players TWO chances to win each month! One winner will be decided by a random number generator...so anyone who enters the challenge has a chance to win the fabulous sponsors prize we will be showcasing!
Our other winner will be our 'Design Winner', voted for by the blog and magazine DT. This winner will get their project published in Craft Stamper, be a Guest DT member for a challenge, AND get their own winners profile on the blog! The profile will be a wonderful opportunity to share your crafting styles and projects with the world, in a dedicated blog post just for you here on the CS blog!
(To be eligible for either prize you need to make sure your project follows all our guidelines, so please check them out, the guidelines are over on the sidebar!)
Our other HUGE change is that we are going to alternate our themes each month. One month will be a 'Take A Stamp' theme, the next 'Take A Technique' and so on. The 'Take A Technique' months will run in exactly the same way as before, we will look through Craft Stamper magazine and choose a technique for you all to have a go at. The 'Take A Stamp' months will be very exciting.....basically, its Anything Goes! You may enter any project you wish to the challenge...the only rule being you must 'Take A Stamp' and use it somewhere on your piece! So, any STAMPED project at all!
The January Challenge is:
'Take A Stamp'
So.....get stamping and entering! You will be amazed at the prize on offer for one lucky randomly drawn winner..... Brace Yourself....

ReplyDeleteDawn

Deleteok, thank you :)
DeleteA great challenge for the new year, I have made 2 creations so far, is there a limit to entries? Thanks x
ReplyDeleteHello Jane, thank you for playing along! Yes, we have a limit of THREE projects per entrant in the challenges! All the guidelines can be found over on the right hand sidebar. Trish xx
DeleteSigh. Nothing happens when I click on the guidelines on the sidebar for the rules. Wish everything was here in one place.
ReplyDeleteHello Lucretia,
DeleteJust checking, you are clicking the purple page links on the sidebar, under the guidelines section title, not the pink title itself? All the purple links are working for me when I click them! As you can see, the guidelines are quite long, so we moved them to their own page as keeping them with the main blog post was making the post extremely long and unwieldy. Hope that helps! xx
Yep, clicked on the purple page links alright, but won't work for me. Several things don't seem to work for me that work for other people, so it must be our weird computer. Thanks anyway.
DeleteWhen does this finish please?
ReplyDeleteThe January Blog challenge finishes at midnight (GMT), Wednesday 28th January.
DeleteThanks. I'm still recovering from the flu and laryngitis, but I have made a start and hope to finish them soon.
DeleteNot sure if I can play in this challenge, because I am the GDT - just delete my entry, if I can't, but my fingers have been itching the entire month to link up here an I finally caved in.....
ReplyDeleteGreat inspiration! So versitile and so challanging to make something else and limk up! Inky greetings, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteAnother fun challenge and, wow, what incredible generosity!! Thank you and thank you for the wide range of styles in your fabulous DT cards ~ so much inspiration!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteHave left some comments along the way for some very talented people with some gorgeous creations.
ReplyDeleteThank you for great new challenge rules and for chance to win that huuuge box!
ReplyDeleteHugs
Thanks for the chance to win the wonderful box of goodies and guest DT slot - a truly amazing prize
ReplyDeleteFirst time playing along, what an amazing prize! Such beautiful samples by the team, thanks for the inspiration! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems as if nearly everyone thinks there is just one prize - the box of goodies. There is also a DT guest position as a prize. See top for all the details...
