Challenge #70: Opt. Twist…COLOUR CHALLENGE

Welcome Christmas Crafters!  It is the first day of a brand new month and it is time for our newest link up. Can you believe that it is October already! Just a little under three months to go before the big day is here.

Whether you are finally looking to get a start on your Christmas and other December Holiday card pile or you already have a number of cards completed, we'd love to have you join us and add your cards to our Link Up for a chance to win some goodies!

If you are new to this unique challenge, you can find out the impetus behind why I created it under the Introductions tab and all the details you need to know in order to participate, by checking out the Challenge Details tab (both tabs located at the top of the blog). For your convenience, a summary of the most important rules can be found in the right sidebar under the heading Basic Rules Summary.

Right now, time to get down to the business of our latest challenge. Here is what you need to know...

Challenge #70

 Optional Twist: 

COLOUR CHALLENGE

If you want the chance to win this month's featured paper pack, make sure that your card showcases at least THREE OF THE COLOURS FROM THE PALETTE BELOW.

Keep in mind though, that you don't need to follow the twist to link up your cards and earn a free paper each month or for a chance to win THREE images from the Pattie's Creations store. You simply need to follow the twist if you'd like a chance to win this month's featured digital paper pack, Foil Textures: Festive Colours (you can see a preview for this set by clicking HERE).

Talking about Pattie's Creations, it is time to refresh ourselves with the details of this returning sponsor…

I am an Internet Technology Professional and an Artist. I always dreamed of being an artist, but I found out quickly that I needed another field to support my family so I pursued a Degree in Information Technology. I love to use Adobe Photoshop and Fireworks to enhance my work. I just recently started selling my very own digital images and I am so excited to be here sponsoring this Challenge.

I created a character called Pattieboop and her cat named Allie. I have had so much fun coming up with different images so I also created a site to sell them. You can go to my store to find out more about Pattieboop & Allie. I know you will just love them when you see them.
