Card Design: Limited Runs Progressive Challenge ... Sept./Oct.

Hey folks! I'm here today to post my card for last month's Progressive Challenge over at Limited Runs! I'm afraid my post is late as I was waiting on some info from Nikki who unfortunately was rather ill last week. I did however send my card to Nikki on time; so, thankfully I still qualify for the next image.

The Progressive Challenge is actually on Facebook (FB) in the Limited Runs Group and can be found HERE. You will need to join the group in order to access the information. Now thankfully, Nikki is willing to accept mailed in entries for those people like me who don't have FB accounts. You can find her email addy in the side bar of the store (click on the image above to head there). In fact, if you don't have a blog, that is okay too. Simply send a photo and she'll add you in.

Check out the fun image that we got to work with this past challenge...

If you'd like to purchase the Cactus image you can now find it for $2.00, its regular price, over in the Limited Runs Store on a special page that showcases all the Progressive Challenge images. Click HERE to head there now.

Each round of Progressive Challenges will last for three months and there will be a grand prize winner at the end of each round.

Each  Round Lasts 1 Month:

Starts on the 15th and ends on the 13th with a winner

1st Round: 

Free Digi until the 29th of the month. Then you can buy into the challenge for $1.00

3rd Round***starts Oct 15th:

Not to confuse you, but while my card below is for round 2, the challenge itself has entered the 3rd round of this stage.
