May Challenge - Theme and Sketch

Happy Friday, STAMPlorations friends! We had quite a number of watercolor beauties in last month's gallery -- thank you to each and every one of you who played! Stay tuned for the April winners post on May 10.

And now we've got a new theme and a new sketch. The theme? STAMPS & CUPCAKES. Get out your cupcake stamps and dies! We also have a sketch you can follow if you'd rather skip the cupcakes. Or combine both in your projects -- we dig that ;-)

If you play, make sure you include the graphic(s) in your post and link back to this challenge post in order to qualify for our prizes :o) Please also read our simple rules, which you'll find toward the end of this post.

And here's the sketch:

Inspired by the theme or sketch? Please just keep in mind these simple rules:

• Link up to 6 entries and link up to as many other challenges as you want.
• You must display the challenge graphic in your post (if linking from your blog) and link back to the challenge post (not just the main blog) in order to be eligible to win (and receive the corresponding prize).
• Link up by May 31, 11:55 p.m. Pacific time.

Prizes:

• The winner (as voted by the design team) receives a $15 gift certificate.
• Three (3) randomly drawn crafters each receive a $5 gift certificate

Heads up! If you used at least one STAMPlorations product (digi or clear stamp, stencil, die, or a page from any of our coloring books), make sure to link it up to our Never-ending Anything Goes Challenge too for a chance to win more STAMPlorations products! We draw two winners every month :o) You may also want to check out our other challenges. You can find links to all our challenges at the top of the page for more inspiration and more opportunities to win prizes.
