Exclamation BIG CONTEST--Holiday theme!

BIG CONTEST! WIN BIG! I'm hosting a contest like LunarLana did last year--it was so much fun!

The theme for the contest is: Holiday (Christmas or Winter)

Please send your card (full card please) along with $1 per entry to participate. The money will be used for the prize pool, and the winners will get COLD HARD CASH to USE AS THEY PLEASE! There will be a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winner. The amount will depend on the number of participants!

All cards MUST have your name and e-mail address on them (you can either put your sticker on the back of them or write it on a post-it note). All cards will be donated to my husband's unit in Iraq after the voting is done so envelopes for the cards are welcome! You can either write a message in your card for a lonely soldier, or the cards can be for the troops to send home to their family and friends during the holidays.

So get stamping and get your entries in! The due date for the contest is October 31st. Please send all entries to me at:

Jennifer King
2016 Ambleside Drive
Colorado Springs, CO 80915

I will be having my friends vote on the cards and the three favorites will receive a check (dollar amounts vary depending on how many participants join the contest).

It's not limited to all Stampin' Up products--everyone is welcome to play! If you have any questions at all, please send me a pm. Happy Stamping!


GRAND TOTALS
***Jackpot......$86***
Cards for the troops.....296!

Actually, I'll post ALL of the cards I get on a big display board (just like Lana did) so you'll get to see ALL of the entries Then I'll scan the winners into the gallery.
