Drag to set position!
Hi everyone!
We are so excited for challenge #58! We're sure many of you know that Kathy Racoosin is hosting another 30-Day Coloring Challenge over on Instagram, and this time, she has also added a Facebook group! Here is that link: www.facebook.com/groups/136097263518504/
It's Kathy's 6th coloring challenge and it's all about taking the time to color each day, even if it's only for five minutes. (It's been proven that coloring relieves stress and makes us feel better.) So the theme for Flickr challenge #58 is Take Some Time To Color! We wanted to help support Kathy's fun challenge again, so we'd like to see you color a stamped or die-cut image with any medium you choose. It can be color pencils, Copics, watercolors, crayons, paint, sparkle pens, etc. As long as you've done some coloring of some kind, you're good to go! You can also color or paint a background but please make sure you've used at least one of our own exclusive products, if you're also entering this challenge.
If you are not on Instagram, that's okay! You can still enter your coloring projects here, or in the Facebook group. We highly encourage you to join Instagram. It's an AMAZING, happy place, with all sorts of your own favorite card making peeps, who share what they are creating! It's easy to make an account and to find the people you love so you can follow them. Here is a link to the tag we use to join Kathy's challenge, so you can see all the wonderful, fun things people are doing with their color mediums: www.instagram.com/explore/tags/thedailymarker30day/
Here's a reminder of the rules:
--- Each card or project created for the challenge must use at least one Simon Says Stamp exclusive brand image, such as their stamps, stencils or dies. This is an important rule. Simon sponsors this group and these challenges, so it's only fair that players use Simon's very own products.
--- Please upload cards to your Flickr photostream and tag them with the appropriate tag name. For this week's challenge it will be SSSflickrchallenge#58 all one word with no spaces. Tagging photos is easy - just find the "add tag" area, below and to the right, when looking at any photo in your photostream, click it, add the tag, then press enter.
--- Please mention in your photo-description, underneath your photo, that your card or project is for the challenge. Also, please let us know which SSS exclusive products you used.
--- Don't forget to add your photo to the SSS Flickr group.
--- Projects for the challenges must be newly created.
--- Submit as many projects as you like for each challenge.
--- You can add your card or project to no more than two other challenges.
--- If you share projects made for our challenges on your blogs too, please share the inspiration graphic in your post (if there is one) and also please add a link back to this discussion thread.
--- We'd love it if you could take a small amount of time, after uploading your card or project to the group, to comment on a few other group members' photos. We all love to receive encouragement for our creations!
You have until Thursday, 9:00am EDT November 24, 2016 to upload your cards/projects to the SSS Flickr group. The random winners will be announced shortly thereafter, on the same day, in a new discussion thread.
There will be TWO winners, randomly selected from all the entries. Each winner will receive a $25.00 gift card to the Simon Says Stamp online store!
We're on Instagram!
Do you use Instagram? If so, please add the tag, #sssflickrchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them there too! (When using this tag for Instagram, remember it is WITHOUT the challenge #)
We hope you find some time to color and enjoy the process! Have fun!
The Simon team
