July!!! Wow! Here we are in July! And it's time for our first Monday of the month Card Challenge! This time our theme is "Twinkle Little STARS." We want to see your card that features, of course, STARS! In the USA it's the time of the year that we celebrate our country's Independence Day so patriotic cards with stars are welcome for this challenge, but maybe you don't live in the USA or you don't need a Fourth of July card....that's okay. Make a card with any theme as long as we see STARS!
To inspire you and get your ideas flowing, our CIE designers have a great "STARS" card selection below. For more details about each card creation, click on the blog link by each Designer's name.
Annie, Pawsitive Thoughts by Annie
Donna, Crafty Colonel
Kristie, The Best Things in Life are Pink
Nancy, Nancy Grace Creations
Sherry, Bits of Cheer
Toni, Frankie Helps Craft
We'd love to see your "Twinkle Little Stars" card!
Here are a few reminders about our challenge requirements:
- No lumpy, bumpy cards. Elements on your card need to be relatively flat (no thicker than 1/4") so your card would fit in an envy (envelope) for mailing
- Limit entries to 3 per challenge.
- No Back Linking--cards must be posted to your blog or an online album during the challenge dates. If it was posted online BEFORE the beginning of our challenge, it cannot be linked.
- Entry must be for the current theme.
- Cards Only--NO TAGS
Additional rules can be found under the Challenge Guidelines tab at the top under our blog header. Entries not following our rules and not for the current challenge theme will be deleted without notice or comment. We accept any size/shape of card BUT all cards must be flat enough to fit in an envy for mailing (no thicker than 1/4") which means no lumpy, bumpy embellishments. Challenge ends Sunday July 15, 2018 at 6:00 p.m. Central Daylight Savings Time.
Our Designers will be voting on the cards after the challenge ends and the winners will be announced by Wednesday morning following the close of the challenge.. We will have one FIRST CLASS which is the card that receives the most votes from the Designers and considered the best overall card for the theme. The Designers will also pick one card as their personal favorite for an IN THE MAILBOX badge. That means we may have up to 10 In the Mailbox cards for a challenge. We decided to go with this fun method as each Designer has their own unique style and preference. Each chosen may grab one of our fun badges for their blog! The badges for the challenge will be in the winners post following the close of the challenge after all the Designer votes are in. The winners will also be announced on our Facebook Page, so come Like us so you'll know quickly if you are a winner.
