MFT Guest Designer Challenge #12
Hi everyone! Do you want the opportunity to be My Favorite Guest Designer for December?
All you have to do is complete the challenge below and include “MFGD12” in the keywords and link your card back to this thread. You have until 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time Sunday night ( 11/9/08 ) to complete this challenge. The winner will be selected from the entries and posted on Monday.
CHALLENGE: Watercoloring
Watercoloring is such a pretty way to color an image. Plus you don’t need to just use watercolor paint/pencils – you can use re-inkers, pearlescent watercolors, Peerless watercolors and more choices I’m not thinking of right now. Use a watercoloring technique on your project for this challenge.
We’re looking for original and unique projects, something that makes us say “Wow – that’s so cool!!” Please make sure the project you submit is a new one and not something already in your gallery.
As a My Favorite Guest Designer, the winner will receive ALL of the new releases for December before anyone else AND will be able to post early with the design team. We will also choose 2 “Ambassadors” who will receive the any pre-released mini set, plus $10.00 in MFT “cash”, PLUS they are invited to host a challenge during the next MFT Release Party!
Don’t forget to put MFGD12 in the keyword section and make sure your project is uploaded before 10:00 pm Eastern time on Sunday.
If you have any MFT stamps, please use them on your design if you can. If you don’t have any (yet!), feel free to play along. The judging will not be based on stamps used, rather on your execution of the challenge!
Samples made by me (Flaxychick) and Laura (Lov'n Life n Vegas)
*******************UPDATE************************* *
We loved all the entries in the challenge and have picked the following winners....
Guest Designer - Ilinacrouse for her frosty looking window scene
Ambassadors:
Giogio for her beautiful and soothing ribbon bathtub card
and
Louisvillecards for her fantastic pink cocoa set
Thank you everyone who participated - all the entries were amazing!

Hi all! Just wanted to pop in and let you know that the December sets are worth the effort! MFT will break new ground with our next Stephanie Fizer set and the Dec Who's That Girl? set shares MY personal favorite addiction!!!
We extended the deadline this time to give working stampers a chance to play, so we hope you'll join us!

I uploaded my card but don't know if it will be approved by the deadline. That's OK, coloring was a nice break from all the shoveling I have been doing.
