GC81: Chestnut Theme Challenge - Snowpeople

It's not quite Winter yet, but the snow is due any minute now. To celebrate one of the fun aspects of snow, we are challenging you to make a project with

SNOWPEOPLE

as your inspiration! That's right! Time to grab your favorite snowguy or snowgal stamp and get busy.

When the challenge closes on January 2, 2011, 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 snowmen or snowwomen as your theme or inspiration;

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

3) 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 January 4, 2011. You have until January 2, 2011 to enter!

We can always count on the Gingers to give us some refreshing inspiration and they have definitely outdone themselves with their icy creations. Without further ado,

The Too Cool Gingers
