October Challenge

I don't know about you but I just love the colours of autumn. Our challenge this month is all about those beautiful warm tones of the season with an (optional) theme of er, autumn (appropriately!). Look at those yummy shades!


October Challenge:

Please take a quick look at the rules below before you create. 

You could win this!!!
  • We'll draw an overall WINNER at random who receives an an amazing grab bag of unmounted Rubber Dance stamps worth 25 Euro (at least!)
  • The Design Team will choose our favourite entry - the DT Pick of the Month. No prize other than fame and glory ;-).
  • All entries using Rubber Dance stamps will get a special mention and our fave out of those will be our Honourable Mention for the month.

Our winners can grab badges to proudly display on their blogs. Winners will be announced on our blog on the 7th of the following month, so remember to check back to see if you won!

Need some inspiration? Check out these examples! We have of course used stamps from Rubber Dance, which you can find on our website: www.rubberdance.com

    Dear Jan - how nice to hear back from you here after I commented on your entry! I, too, love this time of year when nature is expoding in its awesome autumn colours. I just wish it wasn't so cold! But I guess we can't have it both ... I will try your "accident" technique. Very cool!
