CHALLENGE #28 : "Anything Goes ... with a bonus"

Once again, congratulations to the winners of Challenge #27.

This week we have an easy challenge ... Anything Goes - with a bonus!!!

If you enter a papercraft project into the inlinkz below, using a non-Digistamps 4 Joy image, you will get one entry into the random draw.

BUT

If you use a Digistamps 4 Joy image on your entry, you triple your chances of winning .... you get THREE entries into the random draw! Now isn't that a bonus!?!

One random winner will be chosen (random.org) to win 3 images of choice from the store.

We will then have a DT's choice award. This award will go to the card / project that we vote to be our favourite (and must be a digistamps4joy image). This winner will receive a $6 gift voucher to spend in the store. We hope that there will be an entry (or two) using a Digistamps 4 Joy image, as there wasn't one in the previous challenge.

You do not need to use a Digistamps4Joy image to win, but we’d love it if you do!
We will choose 2 runners-up who we feel deserve a spot in the top 3.

Challenge Rules
You can use any image for the challenges. See above.
You have two weeks to enter the challenge.
You may enter a maximum of three (3) entries per DIGISTAMPS 4 JOY challenge.
Your entry must be new. No backlinking to previous posts.
Please link back to Digistamps 4 Joy blog.
Projects that do not follow the theme will not be entered into the draw.
Please use the Inlinkz to link to your CARD/ PROJECT only, please don't link to your entire blog.
You may combine this challenge with other challenges.
If you don't have a blog then please load your card/project into the gallery on the website, and link to that.

The most important rule, however, is to have fun!

Here are the Design Team's Creations for your inspiration ...

JEN ( that's me)

Now that you've seen a wonderful cross-section of the images available in the store (see the link in the right hand side bar), do you see a reason why you shouldn't TRIPLE your chances of winning by using a Digistamps for Joy image? We think not!

All that's left is for us to wish you happy creating, and don't forget to link your post, not your blog, to the inlinkz below.
