Card Design: Limited Runs Progressive Challenge ...April

Hey folks! Slowly but surely I'm recovering from that nasty case of the stomach flu that is swirling through my community. Thanks to everyone for being patient if you had been waiting on me for something. The pile is still rather deep but I am climbing out as fast as I am able to. One of those tasks was to get my card done for this month's Progressive Challenge over at Limited Runs!

The Progressive Challenge is actually on Facebook (FB) in the Limited Runs Group and can be found HERE. You will need to join the group in order to access the information. Now thankfully, Nikki is willing to accept mailed in entries for those people like me who don't have FB accounts. You can find her email addy in the side bar of the store. In fact, if you don't have a blog, that is okay too. Simply send a photo and she'll add you in.

Check out the fun image that we got to work with this month...

If you'd like to purchase this image you can find it over in the Limited Runs Store on a special page that will showcase all the Progressive Challenge images. Click HERE to head there now. As you can see from the above preview, there is also a pre-coloured version that you can purchase as well.

The round of Progressive Challenges will last for three months and there will be a grand prize winner at the end of it all.

Challenge #1: Ended March 13th and a winner was chosen
Challenge #2: Started March 15th and will end April 13th. Those that played the month before received the free digi and those who didn't were able to buy into the challenge for only $1.00.
Challenge # 3: Starts April 15th and will end May 13th

Then a Grand Prize Winner Will be Picked 
and a new round with a new freebie begins!

If you have any questions at all, please contact Nikki!
