THE CHALLENGE: Song Inspired
HERE’S HOW TO PLAY: Make a creation that is inspired by your favorite Christmas carole. Please use Flourishes stamps and when you wrap it up with a bow, just link up on our SCS Christmas Spirit Challenge 16 thread! And then, you’ll be in the running to win!

A reminder about the changes to the challenge for the rest of the year. We want you to get ahead on your Christmas cards and have more time to enjoy the Christmas season without the glue dots in the hair, paper all over the living room and smudges of ink on your face come Christmas Day! So we will not draw one winner but 5 names to win in August. Each month we will have anywhere from 5-10 winners for a free Christmas stamp set for that month! For 5 lucky winners, August stamp set will be Rejoice.

So get your Christmas hat on and start stamping! You could be one of our lucky winners! If you upload your creations to Splitcoaststampers, please use the keyword FLLCNOEL16.
