Prize Challenge! Let's Celebrate!!

[Mystik Nat]

We have a new challenge to throw at you on the Card forum with a rather scrumptious prize to give away! :D

The challenge is to create a fabulicious card on the theme of **celebration** - it can be anything from birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, milestones, or just life in general!

One lucky participant will win a lovely April Card Kit (http://www.sarahscardsltd.com/cgi-bin/trolleyed_public.cgi?action=showprod_APRCARDKIT) from Sarah's Cards.

To enter, post your creation in this thread by Sunday 25th of May. The winner will be announced shortly thereafter. :D

Happy creating!!!

[Kron]

Haven't done one of these challenges before, am I able to use any materials or I am limited to certain ones?

[Eileen C]

It's completely open to you, hun - any materials, any style, any theme (as long as it's celebratory), any technique.

Have fun!

[Linrag]

Hi
This is my first go at a challenge. I did these two as hybrid cards, so I'm posting the jpg file instead of printing them out, taking and uploading pix then posting. If this isn't acceptable for challenges, please let me know & i'll print them off in the future..... just wanted to get in on the fun!:P

[yvette]

Hi everyone, here is another card I have made to celebrate mum's birthday. I have used a template for the greenhouse from a card magazine. Hope you like it!

[danyaz]

here (http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=163409&cat=500&ppuser=8754) is my card for this competition.

[Wingus]

Hope there's not a limit to to how many cards I can enter, because I can't decide! :rolleyes:

These are all to celebrate birthday's. The chinese character on the last one is "shou" and refers to long life, or a celebration of long life if you like!!

TFL!! :D

[Gadget Monkey]

Here's a card I have made this weekend. It's for my son's wedding next week in Las Vegas. It's to be a very informal no frills and no fuss do with just 10 of us going including the bride and groom! So I though t I would steer clear of traditional "wedding" images.

I'm quite pleased with how it's turned out.

[JAniemay]

Another I made this weekend - for a commission for a party loving twenty one year old.

[Wingus]

Wow! Everyone is so creative! All the cards are so nice! :wub:

[LME]

I am adicted to houses at the moment so I used one for a card:wub:

Made for a friend of mine who's daughter should get her degree in a couple of weeks.

Good luck, my fingers are crossed. Here's one I did for my late husband's son-in-law's sister's graduation.;) The scroll unrolls to reveal congratulatory message.

[DeeJay]

sorry to be so thick, but where exactly do I upload my card too

[LME]

sorry to be so thick, but where exactly do I upload my card too


I think you can upload here by going advanced and managing attachments or if your file is bigger than 800 x 1500 put it in your gallery and do a link to it here:)

[DeeJay]

I've uploaded photos of the front and inside of my card in the challenges gallery, is that right?
http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=163900&ppuser=9142 I think this is the link.
Thank you Linda

[LME]

http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=163900&ppuser=9142

here is a link for you Deejay if you copy it and paste it into your thread I will remove it from mine later.

Just right click and highlight above and right click and paste into your post :)

[DeeJay]

Just added another http://www.ukscrappers.co.uk/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=163900&ppuser=9142

[tracygough]

Wow, some really stunning cards posted already.
I just made this birthday card, it's a spinning card, so the dog spins from side to side IYKWIM.

http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg177/camsmum96/Spinningdogcard002.jpg

[elwoodsusanm]

This is really good :)

[Mystik Nat]

Wow some amazing cards, and Tracy that spinning pooch is just fabby!!

Also just a tip, if you are uploading your cards to the gallery, you can insert them in card challenge threads by copying the link for your image and pasting it between an [ img] and [ /img] tag (minus the spaces).

It just makes it easier for everyone to see the cards you make in one place. :)

[LME]

I wanted to try a new shape:)

[tracygough]

I wanted to try a new shape:)

Wow, they are both fab!!

[Bubble-Deb]

LME fabby cards and great shape. :)

Tracy love your spinning dog. :)

[LME]

Thanks I love the dog too:love:

[sarahscards]

Last day today :D Anyone else been creating????
