NEW 2009 Win A Day on the Hero Arts Blog Contest!

view profile

sideoats is a group administrator sideoats  Pro User  says:

5 lucky winners will each win their very own day on the Hero Arts blog!

Here's how it works:

- Now through April 30th, post your best work here on the Hero Arts Flickr.com group using at least one stamp from the 2009 Catalog. You should post the stamped project or projects you are most proud of and that show off your strengths. Post as many times as you like!

- For a link to the catalog, click HERE.

- Tag your entry with the code word "2009catalog" -- that's the word 2009 plus the word catalog, with no spaces between them

- In May, each Hero Arts Artist will pick their favorite project from the submissions and will announce the winners!

- The 5 winners, with their Hero Artist sponsors, will each get their very own DAY on the Hero Arts blog!

- The winners will receive LOTS of new stamps, embellishments and more!

Enter today! The Hero Artists will pick their favorite entries based on creativity, color selection, composition, and use of stamps.

Remember, at least one Hero Arts stamp from the 2009 Catalog is required. Note that this doesn't have to be a new stamp -- it can be ANY stamp, as long as it is in the 2009 Catalog.

Follow this post for any updates. Happy Stamping! :)

Lisa...I am correct in thinking that it must be NEW submissions, rather than tagging something that is already posted?

ima dz2,
I'm assuming it'll be like the past contests... you could tag old submissions as long as the work contains at least one stamp from the 2009 catalog...

I can't imagine what a day on the blog would be like, can you???! Just the mere thought of working with any one of the Hero artists would be a treat, but then to dangle Hero "goodies" as bait..............whooooo hoooooo as you girls say :) How's that for going TECHNO??

meghan-solo  Pro User  says:

I am so excited, I made a list of all of the stamps I own that are in the Catalog and I have at least 20! Plus I just ordered a bunch more through the LSS I work for. YIPPEE!

One of my goals for 2009 was to set aside more time for the things I enjoy, especially cardmaking - entering HA contests is certainly a great motivator. I've been pretty slack so far but my desk is getting cleaner so that's a positive step in the right direction!

I get so overwhelmed by all the amazing talent here - it's a little intimidating but even moreso inspiring.

I am wondering if we can submit items that have won (1st, 2nd, 3rd & HM's) previous challenges? Just curious...

I believe I have done this before and want to make sure this is ok.

Thanks!

I can't even begin to imagine all of the time it would take me to come up with card ideas good enough to enter this part of the blog challenge. I'm still working my way up to an "honorable mention" in one of the weekly challenges! With all of you other incredibly inspiring and talented people out there I'm sure they will have plenty to choose from:)

Virginia L.  Pro User  says:

Dear Sconebakerlady

Please do not be discouraged. Just try to enter the ones that you love and you enjoy making for the weekly challenge. One of these days, your day (!!) will come. Like you, I do not dare to dream about win-a-day on the blog. So you are NOT alone. Let's just keep encouraging one another....

GOOD luck to all (who is entering and who is NOT entering the contest). JUST HAVE FUN!

Hi Sconebakerlady,

I agree with Virginia. If you are really happy/proud with a particular card or LO, why not enter it. That's what I do. To me the idea of winning is about as far a way as the moon *grin*. But we can still say hey I love this card or I'm proud of what I've done. I bet every one in this group probably feels the same way. Go for it, then you can say you gave it your best shot. ;-)

Kryssi Ng  Pro User  says:

Sconebakerlady -- entering is so easy that you have no reason not to!

I won my day with the wonderful Lisa herself by simply adding an extra tag to my uploads -- not really expecting to hit the jackpot! At the time, I've only been a part of this group for about a month and haven't won anything but Fresh Face, lol! So, anything is possible!

OK call me silly but I am new to this whole blog experience thing and to card making. So how does one spend the day on the blog with someone?

quilterlin  Pro User  says:

You win the honor to present some of your own creations for one day on the blog. After 5 people have been chosen according to the process that Lisa explained in the first entry of this thread, they each make several cards and on each person's allotted day on the blog her cards are featured, presented by the Hero artist who chose her.

I'm with stonebakerlady in that I'm new to this as well and working my way up to being recognized, but this contest does get me motivated again to post an entry each week. Do I understand correctly that past creations can be tagged for this new contest? But also each creation has to have one stamp in the 2009 catalog?

Clarian's Hawk * Arlene  Pro User  says:

Lisa's information says you'll be "using at least one stamp from the 2009 Catalog" so you can tag it 2009catalog to enter this particular contest. At the same time, you can enter the weekly challenges - I like these two-for-one deals:)

I too would like clarification as to whether we can tag previous submissions ... or if they have to be new submissions from Jan. 12th forward (since it says "Now through April 30th"). Thanks! :-)

Hello!
I have put "2009catalog" as tag, for my LOVE layout....and when I search all the entries, I don't find my page...and you?
I love Hero Arts stamps....even it's difficult to find all of them in France...so I often go to Belgium....
Have a nice day....I have few days off...to stamp for example!! ^-^

Hi, Titelaine!
Your tag "2009catalog" works to entry the Blog contest.
Your 'my LOVE layout' was taken on April 18, 2009. So, you can find it at the page 4 now.
Please, access the url below:

* if you do it after a few hours, please check and see the page 5 - 7.

Beautiful layout, Titelaine!
Love,
