Rules: I've included links to each challenge site's rules page, so be sure to check there for further information. I strive to post the most up-to-date information, but challenge site information supersedes all information listed here. Read the rules of each host site carefully to be eligible for prizes.
Deadlines: Challenges are due before the end of the month unless noted with a RED deadline date. Be sure to check the timezone of the challenge host.
Allowable Formats: All challenges here allow for 12x12 traditional layouts, but any of these challenges welcome alternate forms of artwork like cards and art journal pages.
Combination Rules: Unless otherwise noted, you can combine these challenges with others, but again, read the rules of each host site.
Have fun creating!

Please see individual posts for any specific rules and deadlines.

ReplyDeleteThis challenge listing is fantastic Carrie. Such a kind and thoughtful idea. Will be using soon. Thanks so much. Blessings & Huggies!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this list. Wow a lot of work. This is great for crafters and challenge site! I have found several challenge I plan to enter. (FYI: I think Anne's Craft Cupboard is for Aussies and NZ residents only? - check their facebook).
ReplyDeleteWow, Carrie - I never knew so many challenge sites existed. I'm going to check some of them out. I could always use a push to get me out of my scrapbooking comfort zone. Thank you for posting these. ☺
