Hi Crafters! You’ve got until this Friday at 5pm PST to get your entries in for the “Recycle Your Heart” CRAFT Valentine’s Day Card Contest! Just remember you must include some sort of recycled goods in your card, and it can be made with any kind of craft you wish. Upload the photo of your card to our CRAFT Flickr pool and tag the photo with craftvdaycontest. Winners will be announced on Valentine’s Day, February 14th, and will receive a copy of CRAFT: 02 and an exclusive CRAFT T-shirt. But wait — there’s more! Each winner will also receive a 1-month free subscription to The Sampler, samples from small, indie businesses who like you and think you’re nice!
The guest judges are Megan Readon from Not Martha, Garth Johnson from Extreme Craft, and Tiffany Threadgould from Tiffany Tomato Designs. More details of the rules are here – Link.
