    Thumbs up Do you enter any card making challenges?

    I'm a bit shy about showing my cards on websites like these as everyone else's seem so much better than mine so thought a way to overcome this might be to enter some challenges.
    I'm going to enter the one from the wild rose studios stamp company, a promarker website one and one on the circle of crafters website.Possibly the digistamp boutique and i love promarkers blog one "when" the post finally turns up!!

    Which ones do you enter? will there be another on here?

    I've never entered any challenges either as everyone else seems so good, and I haven't figured out how to show what I've done, so maybe that's a January challenge!

    i've only ever entered the card challenges on here and even then i only did the last two months. i'd like to enter more as i'm a blog a holic and spend way too much time trawling craft blogs where i see either the bloggers entry or a request to enter, but like you say - i don't feel mine are of the same standard but i'm gaining confidence and since you have nothing to loose and some nice goodies to gain, i see me entering more of them this year. 2011 is going to be the year i took crafting seriously

    I am a bit lax at entering challenges so I have started a weekly one on my blog to help me become more creative and to hopefully encourages others to do so or just to provide prompts for creatvity! I hope you'll join me!

    I think possibly a lot of us feel the same way. It took me a while to put anything on this site and often I'll make a card and think I like it until I see what other people have posted and then I wonder why I bother.

    Ang's (paper & ribbons) weekly challenge is great, lots of different ideas on there.

    Card challenges are a great way to get motivated, sometimes I wonder if I'd make any if it wasn't for the challenges
    Every one should enter, especially as a great deal of the challenges have prizes on at least a monthly basis. Also, if you enter the challenges, you're probably inspiring other people to do the same thing
    Marion, I love that you typed that out in Greek <3
