Hello and welcome! If this is the first time you've
visited the Card Chain Challenge*, we hope you'll sign up and join in the fun!
We've now exchanged over 2,404 cards
by participants from 38 of the 50 United States and 30 countries.
- This is an
international card exchange. Please do not sign up unless you are willing
to actually make and send a card.
- Please email
us (cardchainchallenge[at]yahoo[dot]com) a 100-200k photo of your
handmade card by Thursday 30th November 2017.
- Your
card should arrive at its destination by Thursday 30th November 2017.
Since this is the last exchange of the
year, and it's coming up to the silly season, Gail is doing a giveaway.
Everyone who signs up is eligible for giveaway #1. As long as all the
challenge conditions are met and your card arrives by 30th November you could
win these two Fiskars stamps.
These are designed to work
with Fiskars roller thingy but they work perfectly well slapped on an acrylic
block LOL.
For my second giveaway you
gotta work a bit LOL. I had great fun in September playing with 4 of the
options that Deborah has taken the time to set up so....... For a chance
to win this stamp set you need to use at least 3 options. The colours
count as one, the sketch counts as one, then each of the theme or
product/technique options count as one. So for example, use the sketch,
colours and a deer, you're in the draw! Or the sketch, watercolours and
friendship you're in the draw! etc.... Any combo you like and don't forget to
tell us which you used when you email your card photo. Anyone using at
least three of this month’s options and complying with the challenge
requirements is in the random draw for this stamp set.
Of course, you only need to use one option to comply with the challenge rules, but I do hope some of you might like to play along and stretch yourselves. Hugz.
