♥ JULY 23rd monday CARDS challenge♥

good morning ladies!!!

before we get started, i wanted to announce a change in the PRIZES each month for the MONDAY CARDS challenges. instead of a weekly prize for my MONDAY challenges, i will be awarding ONE prize at the END of each month.

to be eligible to win the "monthly" prize, just create in the MONDAY CARDS challenges, enter as many cards as you like all month long, and ALL the cards submitted will be entered in the drawing at the end of the month.

(new challenges will still be posted EVERY monday and wednesday)

all the cards created for the MONDAY CARDS CHALLENGES in JULY will be put in a drawing for a $20.00 paypal payment on AUGUST 1st. so the more challenges you participate in, the more card inspiration you share, the greater your chances of winning the prize pool.

since this will be a MONTHLY prize package, the deadlines for ALL the MONDAY CARDS CHALLENGES will be the last day of the current month at 11:59 pm PDT.



(you DO NOT have to use a 'Nook kit to participate in these challenges, but it will make it easier since the challenges are inspired by our monthly kit)so let's start July off with a bang!


today's challenge:

create a card inspired by ONE of the cards below
deadline: JULY 31st 11:59 pm PDT

ONE PRIZE will be awarded at the end of the month, all cards created all month long for this challenge, will be eligible for the prize drawing. ($20.00 paypal payment)
(to be eligible for the prize at the end of the month, all cards NEED to be posted in each of the weekly challenge threads)

where to post: right here in this thread in the CARDS forum and in the gallery

how many cards may you enter? as many as you like. the more cards you enter the better your chances of winning the random draw.

(you DO NOT need to use a 'Nook kit to enter cards for this challenge, but it sure will help)

Look what I found in the gallery!

When we look for our Friday Fav, we look in the Kit Creations Gallery.

Today, when I was sucking mojo and ideas from the Member Galleries, I found another lot of lovely creations made with some of our pervious kits and made by our super creative members.


I want to share a few of them with you today - each and every of them could have been a Friday fav, but they were hidden so good, we didn't find them :-(
