Absolutely not Sherry! We have a new challenge every day and you have tons of time to catch up - do as many or as few as you'd like. We even give everyone a week extra to upload. Have fun!!
Okay, this may seem like a dumb question, but can the clear plastic "envelopes" be sealed? I ask because we have a ton of heavy shrink wrap material that will seal beautifully in my Food Saver (was just a TINY bit concerned when I gave it a try ).

Based on previous years there are LOTS of ways prizes are chosen. Drawing, pick a number, 50th card uploaded on tuesday. Lots of random funness. I can't recall ANY based on "best"
Emily, the prizes are drawn at random. We want everyone to participate regardless of their style or skill level, and we know that every card made and sent will bring a smile to its recipient!
The participants who make a card for every challenge throughout the month (34 total) are eligible for larger prizes, so that is a fun goal to aim for.
Is there any benefit to doing all of the challenges? I saw it in the rules last year but don't see any mention of it this year regarding any top prizes.

Yes - the highest dollar value prizes are drawn from the group of people who do all the challenges
Thanks. When I posted my question I had no idea that you had addressed it just prior to my question and then could not figure out how to delete my post.
Each day a new card challenge is posted and on the 15th there was 2 of them to do. I kept waiting for the 16th to post only later in the day to find it posted in between the two 15's. So now it goes 15, 16, 17, 15.
I just usually scrolled down the list each day to get to the last one to do. I am sure others do as well. Is there any way to get them back in order?

Nope - the thread is in order that we posted in behind the scenes and a few are out of order. However, I encourage you to use the Master Challenge List Tracking Sheet I posted because that's all in order and will help you keep track of what you've done.

Thanks. I always went to the 2012 Master Challenge Thread as did not know any other way to access the challenges unless the tracking sheet is something new.
There use to be a 'sentiments for cards' which had a lot of sayings in it for birthdays, etc. Does anyone know where I can find it? I have searched for but can't find it. I had it on my old computer but never installed it on this one. I would be so grateful if someone could show me the link. Thanks in advance.
Hi Ladies
Is there a limit to the number of cards we can send? I have so many cards that need a home, and I would love to send them. I could seriously fill two large priority boxes!? Is that too many?
Thanks
Hi. I'm new here and new to this challenge. I think it's a great idea and want to play along. I want to upload and saw in the instructions "Post a link to your entry in this thread." Don't know what that means, can you explain?

Hi there & welcome to the challenge!
After you upload your card to the gallery, click on the card. Then copy the URL of your card from your browser address bar. Go back to that challenge's chatter thread, click reply, and paste the URL into the thread along with anything you'd like to say about the card.
Don't forget to use the keyword's challenge in the keyword field in the gallery and to choose the Hope You Can Cling To Challenge Gallery 2012 when you're uploading
We still sell them - but people are having a hard time finding them in the catty - hard to make a clear envy stand out in a photo . They are at the top of p 160
Thanks, I ordered some and am using them for the smaller cards. Can you hint, hint to the powers that be at SU to make them for 5 x 7 cards, squares would be nice but I don't want to seem too pushy. I'm using baggies now, but I those clear envies are so much nicer.
BTW - I know we have a couple extra days to upload our cards, but I'm having trouble finding a post with that date in it (I know there are probably a hundred of them but when you're looking you can never find it)
I was away for a couple days, and at home we've had a few crazies but I'm close to caught up. So my question is, what the heck am I going to do with myself when this is over? I'm almost afraid you're going to have an answer.

well, there are different daily challenges here that you can have lots of fun with....I'm going to try to do more of them and branch out more....

Is there a thread for linking all the challenges like there was last year? I have high hopes of being able to get the last few done tomorrow...and don't want to run out of linking time... Thanks!!!
