GCSP4: Once in a Blue Moon Challenge - CASE a Ginger

It is time once again for our Once in a Blue Moon Challenge! As always, we will be sending you out to do some homework for this one. Go and explore the blogs of our own Gingersnap Creations Design Team members and

CASE a Ginger!

As many of you know, CASE stands for Copy and Steal Everything! For this challenge, we dare you to pick a piece created by one of our talented Gingers Design Team within the last six months and, using your own images and flair, create your own sensational piece of art. Don't forget to include a link to the piece that inspired you in your blog post!

Here's a list of The Gingers' blogs to get you going!

Alison Manning - New England Stamper

Dan - My Crafty Life

Debby Boltman - Debby's Stuff

Elina Koutsouradi - Elina

Hels Sheridan - Ink on My Fingers

Irit Shalom - Irit Shalom Designs

Jean Franks Beck - Bluebird Paperie

Jennie - The Artistic Stamper

Joanne Wardle - Made by Joanne

Katy Fox - Postcards From the Attic

Laura Liddell - As Happy As...

Linda Ledbetter - Studio L3

Lynn Stevens - Trash to Treasure Art

Sharon Briss - Ill Tempered Ink

Suzanne Brookfield - Simply Scrapbooking & Memories

When the challenge closes on July 27, 2010, we will pick 7 Ginger Gems - fabulous creations that we feel really exemplify that challenge's objective. The Ginger Gems will appear in our wrap-up post and in a slide show in the blog bar for an entire week and their creators will have the honor of displaying our Ginger Gems blog badge.

For your chance to be eligible as a Ginger Gem or as a Home Page Artist, just follow the simple guidelines below:

1) Make a paper crafting or mixed media creation using a Gingersnap Creations Design Team Member's creation as your leaping off point;

2) Post your creation to your blog or online gallery with a mention and link to this post;

3) Make sure to mention the artist you are CASEing as well as put a link to the specific piece you are CASEing; and

4) Come back to this post and leave a comment including a DIRECT link to your creation or use the linky application below. Remember to make it a link to the specific post or picture and not just a general link to your blog or gallery. We need to be able to find your art!

For more information on our challenges and directions on linking, please check out our FAQ page.

One random winner and seven Ginger Gems will be announced from the qualifying submissions on July 29, 2010. You have until July 27, 2010 to enter!

Not ones to miss out on any fun, the Gingers decided to CASE each other to get you going! To see the original cards, just click on the Ginger's name who has been CASEd.
