Don't forget you can always check the current Eastern Standard Time by clicking HERE.

Rules

IMPORTANT: Please make sure you link to the SPECIFIC post which shows the card you are entering in the challenge!

Aside from the requirements which may apply to each individual challenge (follow this color scheme/sketch/theme, etc) we ask that you please include The Stamping Bazaar stamps on your entries. It’s OK to combine them with stamps with other companies! =) Just make sure that there is at least one TSB stamp featured prominently on your card.

Challenge for Monday, December 20th
(LAST CHALLENGE OF 2010!)

And now, let's get on with this week's challenge! This week we don't have a sketch: the theme is simply...

That's right --everything sparkly, glittery and gem-studded! It's anything goes so long as it glitters or sparkles in some way, and uses a TSB stamp, so go nuts people!

Prizes

Every week, we will choose one (1) random winner for 1st prize and one (1) honorable mention for second prize. In upcoming challenges, the number of prizes given will increase (and include rubber stamps) if we get many entries as we go along, so make sure to enter every week!

Here are the prizes up for grabs this week:

First prize consists of two (2) digis of choice from the TSB store.

One honorable mention will receive a prize of one (1) digi of choice from the TSB store.

The honorable mention will be chosen by me, and I will always try to choose the most beautiful card that seems to have the most imagination, creativity and hard work put into it. I will try my best to be fair. ;)

Here is some inspiration from our Design Team to get your creative juices flowing:
