Sugar and Spice Crafty Challenge #8
Okay, so I know some of our crafters are getting busy now with kids out of school and with the weather getting hotter it makes us slow down a lot more. And talk about 2014 being half way over!? Time is flying by. It is even less than half a year till Christmas.
So… (in case you didn't already know…) we are going to be having a challenge that will run from July 1st to July 24th this month… because the theme is Christmas in July!! Woohoo! I LOVE CHRISTMAS! We will have a big drawing on the 25th and the present will be delivered shortly thereafter. :) So get your ho-ho-ho, reindeer, santa, tree, etc. scrap stuff out and create something. It's a great chance to get started on presents or cards, too. And remember you can enter up to three times. Can't wait to see your creations. Let's get craftin'.
Guidelines:
1. Enter a link to the photo/video of your creation.
(Each entry must be a different link/post for inlinkz to accept it.)
2. Include a link to this challenge in the description.
3. You may combine challenges. But your work must be a new creation. No backdated posts allowed.
4. You can enter up to three times.
5. The winner will be a sent a goodie package (usually shared beforehand on YT: myscrappylife).
Here are so creations from our design members:

She actually made 6 cards in total (with three entries).
So I guess she tripled her chances of winning!
I love her enthusiasm.
Everyone did lovely cards, too. I wish I could send you all a prize. :)

2. Include a direct link to this challenge post in your description.
3. You may combine challenges. But your work must be a new creation. No backdated posts allowed.

Since most of our design members are Canadian or American (apart from Mariko), this challenge will be centered around Canada Day - July 1st and Independence Day - July 4th.
Create something crafty that is Patriotic - Red and White or White, Red, and Blue. Will it be a challenge to see which country has stronger crafters?? We will just have to wait and see…

Winner of Challenge #4!
Check out the main page for the latest challenge! sugarandspicechallenge.blogspot.com
Thanks to all the ladies who participated in the 4th challenge for Sugar and Spice. I honestly think we had the best entries yet! The winner of the awesome package from Butterfly Reflections is…
For your information, in Japan here, we have a bunch of holidays grouped together into a week, known as Golden Week. During this time, I will be doing some spring cleaning and much needed reorganization and tidying (yes…the scrapspace is on the list, too!) So I hope you understand when I announce our challenge is taking a break for a the first half of May…we will return with a new *mixed* challenge on May 14th. Because of the long break, the challenge will run a bit longer…until June 1st.
Oh, I am thinking to have the challenges start on a Wednesday and end on a Sunday (regularly it will be about a week and a half to finish the challenge, giving me time to prep the posts etc before the next challenge).
Also, I would like to have your input on prizes… would it be preferred to have a prize pack (pre-picked) or a gift certificate?? I was thinking about rotating one prize pack and one gift certificate. Would you prefer May's prize in goodie form or a gift certificate?? Send me info to my address: makescrappygoodness@gmail.com or any other the other ways you know how to contact me. :)
Have a great week and may it be Golden!!
