PostSubject: Our First Monthly (March) Challenge!   Sun Mar 16, 2008 8:44 pm

Hello ladies Laughing

Here's your first challenge to get those creative juices flowing....

March is disappearing fast, but you still have time to make and post a card on the forum.

Your challenge is to use brads... at least 7, more if you'd like to. As it's nearly Easter, and there are eggs about, use some oval shaped matting and layering on your card, and finally, in celebration of all those tasty, yummy Easter eggs and their bright crinkly wrappers... put something tactile on your card so it's nice and touchy feely flower

If we have at least 10 different people enter the challenge... then the winner will be rewarded with a small prize! Don't forget to label your card when you upload it as March challenge.

MM - I've also had this problem of uploading my photos.

If you have adobe photoshop or another programme like that you an resize your pics and then they will be small enough to fit on the gallery. It's to do with the file size and seems to be a problem mostly when it's a jpeg.

There is an online programme you can use called picasa but i can't remember the link for it, but if you google it I'm sure you'll find it. Very Happy

I will be doing the challenge too FT...will get onto it asap bom

Go to announcements. Follow the link and you should see your name on the left hand side of the screen. Click on it then upload your pictures. To view someones pictures click on 'Back to Fairytips' to get the name list back then select a name. You should see a small image of their posts at the bottom of the screen.

Don't worry MM, dh is on the case... or will be tomorrow Very Happy I think 1 of the things that we may do is ask people to empty their gallery Crying or Very sad then allow everyone 1 card to upload for the challenge (as well as having another site), or upload the card pics onto this thread, but I'll leave it to dh to have a look tomorrow... but don't worry, your card will be included Very Happy

Can't believe you've done it already affraid WOW!!!!
