Vote for December's Free Digi Paper + A Quick Reminder for Challenge #48!

Hey folks. It is the middle of the month and that means there are still two weeks left in our current Link Up. Since the team has December off and there is no sponsor, there is no need to have a traditional midway post. Therefore I figured I'd just remind you about our current challenge when having you vote on this month's paper pack.

Thankfully, I finally managed to get this month's set done. In fact, I also got January's set done so now I'm ahead of the game...sort of. I actually still have October's set to complete...sigh...but I'm getting there slowly but surely!

December's set is called A Touch of Christmas: Glitz & Gloss. Check out the preview...


Everyone who links up a minimum of two cards during the month of December will earn ONE of the digital papers from this set. The specific paper up for grabs will be shown during the winner announcement post. Additionally, one random winner will earn the full set of papers.

If you would like a say in determining which one of these papers will be offered to those who link up a minimum of two cards this month, be sure to vote in our poll below. If there is a tie or no votes are cast, an executive decision will be made as to which paper is offered.


DIGI PAPER POLL
Please click "like" to choose the ONE paper that you would like offered up to participants who link up a minimum of two cards during the month of December. Poll will be open until December 31st, 11:59 p.m. EST. Please note that you can get a better idea of what the actual paper looks like by bringing the preview ABOVE up in the lightbox.


Don't forget, there are still two weeks to join our link up!

Challenge #48: Anything Goes Christmas

Happy Saturday Crafters! Can you believe it? In less than 24 days, it will be Christmas. This has been a difficult year for me and mine so in some respects I am looking forward to ushering in a new year soon, hoping it will be a much better one. However, at the same time, when I reflect back, it is amazing to think just how quickly it seems to have all gone by.

As it is the first day of December, it is time for our final link up of 2018 to get under way! Given how little time is left until the BIG DAY itself is here, it is imperative to get all those last minute Christmas and other December Holiday cards completed before we run out of time! To provide you with some extra incentive to get your cards completed, we have some lovely prizes available! So, why not join us for your chance to win?!

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


The Basics

While you can find out ALL the information you need to know in order to participate in the challenge by checking out the 'Challenge Details' tab at the top of the page (or by clicking HERE), here is a refresher of the basics.
  • Anyone can link up as many Christmas and/or December holiday themed cards (including Happy New Year's cards) throughout the month with an ANYTHING GOES theme.
  • Every person who has linked up a MINIMUM of two (2) cards will be eligible to receive a specially designed Christmas themed digital paper.
  • ALL entries adhering to our basic rules will have the chance to win a special prize and also have the opportunity to win a mini pack of digi papers as well.
Now that the basics are out of the way, how about we get on with the details of Challenge #48.


Challenge #48: Anything Goes

We're doing things a little bit different this month. The Sleigh Belles and Merry Maidens have been working hard all year to get their Christmas cards created and as such, Pat and I have decided to give them a much deserved break from having to post this month. Thus, there will be no DT makes for you to check out.

Normally, we'd also generally have a Guest Sponsor offering up a prize. However, this month, since the team isn't creating any cards for the link up, there was no need to have a sponsor but don't worry, there is still going to be a prize. This month, a random winner will win a copy of EITHER my Holiday Hoopla Mini Digital Kit OR Five different Mini Kits from the Christmas and/or Winter section of my Preview page (if you'd like to see previews of these sets, you can find them on my personal blog HERE).

As far as the theme goes, we're leaving that wide open this month. Lots of people are working diligently to finish off all their Christmas cards so we have decided to capitalize on this and have opted to do an ANYTHING GOES theme BUT don't forget that your card still has to be suitable for CHRISTMAS!


So what are you waiting for? It is time to link up your Christmas and other holiday cards for December!

If you are new to this unique challenge, you can find out the impetus behind why I started it under the 'Introductions' tab and all the details you need to know in order to participate, in the 'Challenge Details' tab (both tabs located at the top of the blog).
