Paper Sundaes Challenge #102 - Saturated Colours

noreply@blogger.com (Christine aka blankiefinder) — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 13:00:00 +0000

Happy Sunday! I am so excited, because today we have a new sponsor here at Paper Sundaes, Saturated Canary! If you haven't seen Krista's images, you definitely need to check them out, they are adorable! Krista is generously providing this week's winner with two digis of their choice. Here is some information from Krista:

Hello! My name is Krista. I am the artist behind Saturated Canary digis-- sweet, whimsical character stamps just waiting for a little color:). Besides creating artwork and digis, I am a mama to two beautiful kiddies and happily married to my (really hot;) best friend. I love hanging out with my awesome family, running on my treadmill, cups of coffee, tattoos, my church, blogging, crafting, and thinking up new goals and dreams! I'd love for you to stop by my personal blog, Saturated Canary, and say hello!! I love making new friends!

In honour of our new sponsor, we are asking all of you to show us your 'Saturated Colours'. If you're unsure what that is, here are a couple definitions:

Definition from dictionary.com: "of maximum chroma or purity; of the highest intensity of hue; free from admixture of white."

Definition from Mobileburn.com: "Color saturation refers to how vivid and intense a color is. For example, a display with poor color saturation will look washed out or faded. When a color's saturation level is reduced to 0, it becomes a shade of gray."

Remember, the winner and top 3 are now posted on the Thursday following the close of the challenge! :)

Paper Sundaes Challenge #100 - Celebrate!

noreply@blogger.com (Christine aka blankiefinder) — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 13:00:00 +0000

Happy Sunday! I can't believe that we are at challenge #100 already! I also can't believe that it is only one week until Christmas, but that's a whole other story, and we shouldn't discuss my issues with procrastination and denial!

On behalf of all of us here at Paper Sundaes, we would like to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas if you celebrate, and a wonderful holiday season to everyone! Due to the holiday season, this challenge will run for two weeks, and we will be back on New Year's Day with our next regularly scheduled challenge. The DT is also taking a well deserved commenting break to enjoy extra time with our families and loved ones. We will have a couple of changes in the New Year, most notably is that the top three and winner will now be posted on Thursday following the close of the challenge. I know this is quite late, but due to other commitments such as school and work, this will really help Shana and I keep the posts going up as scheduled!

This week our sponsor is Stamp and Create. Someone will win an amazing gift this week, as Lacey is giving this week's winner a fantastic $25 gift certificate to her store!

Stamp and Create is an online store based in the US with shipping worldwide. We offer free shipping to US orders of $55 or more or Canadian orders of $75 or more plus we have a low flat rate international shipping.

Stamp and Create carries a wide range of stamps including Wags 'n Whiskers, The Greeting Farm, Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps, Whimsy Stamps, Kenny K and Wee Stamps for Whimsy, SWALK, Popcorn Bear, CC Designs, Wild Rose Studio, Belles n Whispers, and now carrying Magnolia Stamps, Humphrey and La La Lands!!

Each monday we have a new weekly candy over at the store's blog as well a special Product Spotlight with $25 off a certain product/stamp line for the week. We are currently taking Pre-Orders for the newest Magnolia "Sweet Crazy Love" Release. We have many items on Sale. Make sure to check out the Clearance section along with the Christmas and Halloween Sales. Plus many Sweet Pea stamps are still on sale!

To keep things nice and easy over this stressful season, we have chosen a theme of 'Celebrate'. Whether you're scrambling to complete your Christmas or holiday cards, or have moved on to other celebrations, come and join us! Just remember, a maximum of three entries per person :)

Please stop by their blogs and leave them some love for all of their hard work :)

We usually have a DT call in November with a term starting in December, but we're postponing that by a few weeks since it is such a crazy time of year. So check back for a DT call sometime in the next month, with a new term starting in January!
