Splitcoaststampers.com - the world's #1 papercrafting community
You're currently viewing Splitcoaststampers as a GUEST. We pride ourselves on being great hosts, but guests have limited access to some of our incredible artwork, our lively forums and other super cool features of the site! You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
Come celebrate with us
Since July of 2004, we�ve thanked our Fan Club members for supporting Splitcoast financially with a themed monthly gallery. We think up a theme, and our twelve talented designers create away, filling the gallery with all kinds of things to inspire and enable, and to give you a little something extra for your contributions to Splitcoast. We know you love to ogle the projects every month, and we know you�re all immensely talented, too.
Then we thought - how fun would it be get our Fan Club members to play along in challenges with us? With that thought, Dare to Get Dirty week was born. We're happy to celebrate our eighth anniversary with you with a week full of stamping challenges.
So what�s this all about?
Easy. It�s all about you. Sure, we�re playing, too, but we want to see what you do when you're challenged!
Our Dirty Dozen Designers, both past and present, have a fun week planned for you. You�ll see a little of everything � inspiration, 3D items, color and layout challenges, techniques, tutorials . . . . and besides the stamping part of things, we wanted to add something else, more personal interaction! We�ve got everything all pre-posted and ready to go, and the girls will be there in the chat threads to answer any of your pressing questions. If you�ve ever wondered how someone does something, ask away. They�re there to dish and share their dirty little secrets with you! We will even have a fun, new live chat feature waiting for you in the challenge forum!
Do I have to do them all?
Nah, just do what you can or what grabs you, or just jump in and chat with the girls if you can�t actually stamp during the challenges. We want to see your work and get to know you better!
What if I do do them all?
Good question! How about a prize drawing for those who complete all of the challenges (combining challenges is cool, of course!) and upload by August 5th?
Number of Winners? Well, we probably better have a dozen! And our sponsors this year are our AMAZING Member Companies, so get ready to win products from your favorite companies!
So when does it all start?
Saturday, July 27th, we�ll post the first set of challenges here, and will continue posting challenges through Friday, August 2nd.
Are there any rules?
Have fun! Combine challenges, go nuts with one challenge and do ten entries. Upload to your gallery, post your creations on your blog . . . just keep the details of the challenges here, okay? (This means in your description, don't say: "This card is for Kim's challenge to use blue and yellow - challenge details are for Fan Club members only) That�s it!
Only Fan Club Members will be able to upload to this event gallery and win prizes, but everyone will be able to view and comment on your creations.
So if you haven't joined the Fan Club yet - what are you waiting for? This is your Dirty Dare! Join here and join in the fun!

Years ago I used to participate in a Virtual Stamp Convention each summer - VC Rocks! - and it was SO much fun! My family knew that I was busy for the week. : ) So, DD and I have decided to declare the week of DTGD as our summer stay-cation since we really don't have $$ to take a real one, and we have multiple food allergies, so it is hard to go away. We'll stock up on food, make sure the house is clean before we start, suspend shipping for our business for that week and generally just relax and enjoy. Doesn't that sound like fun? DH is planning on attending trapshooting competitions both those weekends, so it should work out perfectly!!

My goal this week, clean up the craft room so I can have room and find what I need. Hopefully that will help, I hate trying to get things done and spending more time looking than crafting
In order to stand in the middle of my room I have to move ink, paper and stamps, also ribbons and buttons.
Me too. And probably a child who wandered in.
