Please read them over to ensure your entry qualifies to win our prizes!
- We
are a monthly stamping challenge. Entries must involve rubber or clear
stamping, it should be the focal point of your project and you must follow the
theme! Please
mention the stamping in your post. If it's not obvious we won't know
and your entry will not be included in the prize draw!
- Challenges start on the 1st of every month and end on the last day at 11:59 PST
- All
kinds of projects are welcome, if you can stamp it you can enter it,
unless specifically excluded by the challenge theme. Please do not link
up multiple entries that are similar with only slight changes to colour
or layout. We want to encourage creativity.
- Link directly to your project post, not just your blog's home page, and include our challenge name, challenge badge and link to it in your posts.
- Each entry must be in a separate post -ie: if a post has more than
one piece of work or collection within it, only one project can be
entered into the linky and it must be clearly specified which one is the
entry.
- No
backlinking to projects published on any blog or social media platform
prior to the start of the challenge. New projects only, preferably
created specifically for our challenge.
- You
can enter the challenge 2 times using any named brand of rubber or
clear stamps and can combine your entry with a maximum of 5 other
challenges (total 6 challenge links).
- If
you use Lost Coast Designs or Carmen's Veranda stamps on your project
you can enter the challenge as many times as you want and link up to as
many other challenges as you want. Remember to mention in your post
which Lost Coast Designs or Carmen's Veranda stamps you have used.
- Challenge
winners will be announced on the 5th of the following month and will be
selected using a random number generator. If Lost Coast Designs or
Carmen's Veranda stamps have been used on the winning entry the winner
will get $10 to spend in the shop. If the winning entry contains no
Lost Coast Designs or Carmen's Veranda stamps the winner will receive a
$5 to spend in the shop.
- We need at least 20 qualifying entries to award a prize. If we have over 50 entries we will award a second prize.

- Make sure your Photo privacy is set to "public" so Inlinkz can access it and our DT can view it. Please don't share from sites that require membership.... if our DT needs to sign up to view and comment on your entry it will be disqualified!

I have a bin full of rubber stamps that I have gotten from garage sales, closeout stores, etc.. Most of them have no identification or company names on them so I have no idea who made them or where they are from. Can I still participate in the contests if I don’t this information ? Thanks, TC
Hi, if you don't know the producer then just state that you used rubber stamp but don't know the producer. Maybe someone will be able to help you identify them. As long as you are using real rubber or clear stamps you can enter the challenge.
Hello, is there a place to put your email info to get updates to your blog and do you have to be on FB to join in on the challenges? I'm not on social media. Thanks!
