World Card Making Day Week: Make a Christmas Card for a Chance to Win!


Happy World Card Making Day Week, my friends! That's right! World Card Making Day is this coming Saturday, October 6 and we're going to be celebrating here in the Moxie Fab World right along with Paper Crafts Connection all week long in anticipation of the Big Day!

What is World Card Making Day, you might be asking yourself? Taking place the first Saturday in October, World Card Making Day is a special day for paper crafters all over the world to connect with one another as we kick off the holiday card making season. Whether you get together with your card making friends at a central location, take a card making class at your LSS, join in on all the various giveaways and challenges online, or mark the day by creating cards from the comfort of your own home, it's our official opportunity to celebrate the joy of card making and the inspiring and connective opportunities it has brought to all of our lives.

Here in the Moxie Fab World, we're going to celebrate all week by making cards! Let's kick off the holiday card making season all together, shall we? Today I invite each and every one of you to create a Christmas and/or Season's Greetings card and add it to our World Card Making Day Gallery (instructions to follow.) Then, link that card up to Mr. Linky below. I'll draw 2 random winners to receive THIS moxie fab suite of special issues from Paper Crafts magazine worth a grand total of $74.95:


As inspiration, here are some moxie fab Christmas cards I found in past World Card Making Day Christmas galleries:




Snowman Greetings Card by sbmmhoover from 2011

Who's ready to have some fun? If you're raising your hand, here's what you need to do to play:
  • Create a Christmas and/or Season's Greetings card.
  • Go to the World Card Making Day Gallery by clicking HERE.
  • Either create a new profile or log-in with your Paper Crafts magazine website log-in.
  • Click on "Create Gallery."
  • Follow the prompts until your card is uploaded to the Gallery.
  • Click on the specific URL for your card in the gallery and add it to Mr. Linky below by midnight EDT on Monday, October 15.
  • Two random lucky winners will be selected from the projects linked up to Mr. Linky below and will receive the 5 special issues from Paper Crafts magazine shown above. International winners will receive digital copies.
  • Winners will be announced on our weekly Winnerday! post on Tuesday, October 23. Be sure and check back on that day to see if you are one of the luckies!
But wait! There's more! Submit your card to our World Card Making Day Contest for a chance to be published in our March/April 2013 issue and win THIS amazing prize!

Oh my friends! This week is going to be soooo much fun!

See you in the Gallery,
