Default October 2010 Guest Designer Challenge and Chatter

Well, hi there and welcome to the October Guest Designer Challenge Thread for My Favorite Things!

Jen del Muro (genie1314) and I are hosting this month's challenge and we can't wait to see how ya'll use color!

Yep, that's right, we've come up with a color challenge for you:
Rasberry, Lime Green and Aqua
Optional color: Yellow
(not neccesarily represented by the colored letters above, but ya'll get the idea.)

There are some details we need to cover as to how this all works and how YOU can get noticed:

1. Projects must feature some MFT stamps or products, but are not strictly limited to MFT stamps or products.

2. The deadline for entries is Tuesday, October 5th at 10 PM EST.

3. When uploading your entries, please use the keyword MFTGUESTDT1010.

4. Jen and I will review all the entries and choose a winner. The winner will be announced at the Release Party at around 8:45pm EST on Wednesday, October 6th, 2010. The winner will receive a selection of stamps from the next release with a value over $100. You'll also join the MFT Design Team for that month!

5. As winner of the guest designer contest, we ask that you participate in 3 (of 5) teaser days as well as at least 1 (of 2) blog hops.

You can see all the entries for this contest HERE.
GOOD LUCK!!
Now, chat amongst yourselves and we'll pop in periodically to make sure ya'll are behaving.

Samples below are by Susan and Jen:

The entries look great so far!! Someone had asked earlier (Polly?), if it was only one entry per person--NO, you can enter as much as you'd like!! Go for it and don't be nervous, Stephanie!!

Finally got mine photographed and edited for my blog (why is that always the hardest part?!). It is on my blog now:

A Blooming Good Day.

It is also here in the SCS gallery but has not been approved yet:

Here and here.

There really are some beautiful projects in the gallery!

pattie, go to your gallery picture of your card, right click and copy the url code for your photo. Then come back here and just hit paste, into a post. that's the easiest way to do it.

if you want to get fancy, give your card a name in your post, highlight that name, then click on the little earthy button in the tool bar. When that pops up, paste your gallery url that you copied into the box and you'll have a named link within your post that will direct people to your card.

clear as mud? lol!

Dang... been having sewing machine and computer probs this week, but, went for these colors???? Actually, love them but, "stretched" a little, out of the box for me, expanding my comfort zone... {okay, that's enough of that!!}. Fun to try!!

Being Cute is What I Do

I've looked at all the submissions and unable to comment on all {computer probs as stated above} but, FABULOUS!!

Default Hi There! MFTGUESTDT1010

I'm new to splitcoast and the whole posting to the forum thing... I tried to get a card to go to the forum. But I am not seeing it in the gallery for the Guest Designer contest. Hmmm...I really want to play...any advice on how to get it to show up there for judging? I did it twice. Maybe it takes a while to get over there? Sigh... perhaps I'll have to wait until next time?
