A plea for help...and PRIZES!

***THIS IS A STICKY POST AND WILL STAY AT THE TOP OF THE BLOG UNTIL JUNE 15TH.  PLEASE SCROLL DOWN FOR MORE POSTS.***

Hello to all!  Since I haven't had quite as many participants as I'd like in the Velveteen Stamping challenge over at Technique Tuesday, I'm extending the deadline for a few more days.  15 to be exact!  You now have until June 15, 2012 at midnight Central Standard Time to enter the Velveteen Stamping challenge!  And I would LOVE to get 15 more participants! SO, I will be offering some free digi word art files, made by yours truly, as prizes for the Top Winner and Showcased cards!

Regardless of if I get more players or not, those who win and are showcased WILL be getting the free digital sentiments!  AND, here's the kicker--you get to tell me what sentiment you'd like!  I will make you ANYTHING.  SOOOOOOO...PLEASE play along with me!  Happy stamping! :)

For these challenges~

 Less Is More: One Layer w/ a Flourish

 Papertake Weekly: 3-2-1

Let's Ink It Up: Favorite Embellishment

The Paper Players: Color Inspiration

Stampin' Royalty: CAS

I started by stamping my flourish background with whisper white ink onto a white card.  I then stamped all my images and added my favorite embellishment--sticky back gems!  For the 3, 2, 1 challenge, I used 3 stamp sets, 2 types of sticky back gems, and 1 layer of cardstock! :)  I hope you like it!  And I hope you come and play along with these fabulous challenges--plus, don't forget I have blog candy up for grabs!  Happy stamping! :)
