· Please email your submissions to cs@traplet.com

Guidelines:
· Please make cards only for this gallery.
 . Please do not use stamps that are discontinued for this article. Also please only use stamps that are available to buy in the UK (the exception is stamps from advertisers e.g. Art Journey, De Stempelwinkel).

· Cards will be returned at our expense, along with a complimentary copy of the magazine in which your card features. Note this can take approx. three months.
· Please follow both the theme AND the colour scheme when creating your cards. You can add black, white and metallics to any of the schemes. The ideas given are simply that, ideas, and do not have to be followed to the letter!

We look forward to seeing all of your beautiful designs!

  2. Is this still a card in 20 minutes challenge or has that rule gone?

    1. Hi Elaine!
      I decided to get rid of the 20 minute rule, as crafters all work at different speeds. What may take one person 20 minutes might take another an hour! The general idea is that the cards are of a fairly simple nature though, something any level of crafter can attempt. I want to have loads of cards in the gallery, not loads of step by step instructions taking up the space. Hopefully that helps! xxxxx
