August Manufacturer Challenge - WINNER

[emmapaige]

I used the ever popular Ramdom.org to pick a number between 1 and 67 and it chose #30. So congrats to: citygirl22 (Stephanie) - Carta Bella.  I will send you an ACOT gift card, Stephanie, as soon as I figure out how to do that!

Since this is my first challenge, I hope I am doing everything right but if some of you pros notice anything wrong, please don’t hesitate to let me know!

I have decided to resurrect the Monthly Manufacturer’s Challenge.  However, I’m going to change it a bit by choosing a letter each month.  So for August I have picked the letter “C” (since my name is Chris – LOL)!  What this means is that you can choose any manufacturer that starts with the letter “C”.  I don’t know anything about digi scrapping but hopefully there are designers out there that start with this letter.
If you aren’t sure which manufactures would qualify, you can go to the ACOT store and click on “Brand” and look at all the options. 

 If you use one manufacturer that starts with the letter C, you will be entered into the drawing once.  If you use a second manufacturer that starts with the letter C, you will be entered twice into the drawing.  If you can come up with three manufacturers that start with the letter C, you will be entered three times. Please be sure to list the manufacturer(s) you are using. You can certainly use other products that don't start with the letter C, but we should be able to clearly see the product(s) that you do use for this challenge! I will pick a random winner to receive a $5 ACOT gift certificate.

I have used Crate Paper DYI Shop for my sample.



Must be a new layout/card or altered project.
Must post to the gallery by 08/31/14 at midnight and also post to this thread.
You may combine with one other challenge if allowed by that challenge.

Oooooh, I like this! Thanks!

[Sandi0805]

So glad to see this challenge back Chris.   Have fun hosting it.  I do like the twist by using a different letter of the alpha for the manufacturer.  Question though.  Can we use any product from a manufacturer that starts with the letter C.  For example, clearsnaps (using cat's eye inks to ink edges for distressing).  Thanks.

[kate W.]

Thanks for bringing this challenge back, Chris! It was one I liked. Three C's might be a challenge but I know I can come up with at least one.

Yep, that sounds good! I want to make this as easy as possible!'

[scrappininAK]

fun challenge Chris - I always thought your name was Emma though

[butterfly843]

Sounds like a fun challenge

[croppinmama]

Great challenge. I know I must have something that starts with the letter C in my mess of a stash

[SherrieLynne]

Love this Challenge Chris!!!

[jrrah4903]

Awesome, I love that the manufacturer challenges is coming back. Thanks!

[scrappinmom99]

Oooh, I love this type of challenge. Really helps to narrow down on the decision-making (in other words, the thing that makes me scrap so slowly!). Off the top of my head I can think of Crate Paper and Cosmo Cricket. I'm sure I have others...ooh combining will be interesting lol with the collections I have! Love to try that lol

[1grandma]

Love this challenge.

[Sara Scraps]

Love this challenge..so glad you decided to resurrect it...It was the very first challenge I ever entered at ACOT!

[Yankeegirl]

Love your page here!  And what a great challenge....I was wondering about why you labeled your lo this way when I saw it in the gallery, and now I know why!  Thanks for another fun challenge inspiration!  Hope to use up some older stash on this one!

[sweetsour]

cute page for sure!  I too missed the Manufacturer challenge, and I love your twist!
Just 2 questions - combining?  multiple entries?

[Deanna13]

I always loved this challenge and your example is GREAT, Chris! Thanks for hostessing!

Yes, you many combine with one other challenge and yes, multiple entries are allowed!  

[average_kim]

Sounds like fun!  Thanks for the new challenge!

[Craftyshannon]

This is great- better than a specific manufacturer since i don't ever seen to have things from the right companies.

[pawprints]

What a fun twist to the challenge! Are we to ONLY use products from the particular manufacturer (or manufacturers) that we pick?
