August Blog Hop Tonight!

Tonight we are excited to present the BIG monthly Blog Hop that Papertrey Ink hosts for all of it's talented customers to show off their skills! We are doing things a bit different again this month with the link list being hosted here on my blog at 8pm EST with a Mister Linky list, rather than a thread on our forum for that purpose. But not to worry, the contest for non-participants as well as all the chit chat will still be going on over in our forum in the designated thread. I hope that I will see many of your familiar faces over here tonight! I look forward to seeing all of your creativity!

All of our customers who enjoy sharing inspiration & artwork with their peers through their personal blogs.

In honor of school going back into session everywhere, we thought it would be fun to issue a Brown Bag Challenge.  We want to see what you can do to dress up, alter, change and ordinary brown lunch bag into a paper crafting work of art.  You could modify it to become a gift bag with handles, create a card base by folding it in half (complete with a slide out tag), add a window to it or whatever else you can dream up.  After the hop is through, we should have plenty of inspiration to help us create amazing projects with inexpensive brown bags!  We look forward to seeing your creations.

 
 -Bloggers will post their projects on their individual blogs between 5pm EST and 7:55pm EST. The title of your post should be "Papertrey august Blog Hop Challenge".

-Participating bloggers need post a link to their project in the post labeled "August Blog Hop" that will begin at 8pm EST on my blog. (no pre-registration is required). A Mister Linky list will be included at the bottom of the post, and this is where you will need to add your link in order to be qualified.

-Customers & participants alike can peruse all of the links and absorb all of the amazing inspiration that will be shared!

-After you have made your way through the list, simply return to our forum and participate in all of the fun!

-You can chit chat with everyone in the Blog Hop forum! Take this time to praise your peers efforts, discuss anything new you might have learned and which projects really offered something unique!

-The three random blogger participant winners will be announced at midnight EST on our forum and highlighted here on my blog!

-You can enter our Blog Hop Forum contest. There will be a special thread posted in our forum specifically for this purpose asking a question. Please only post once, as the winner will be picked via the Random Number Generator. The forum contest will end at midnight EST and the winner announced tomorrow morning in the thread.

-Create a project while you are here, using the new inspiration you have gathered from the Blog Hop. You can post your projects in the gallery, even if you do not have a blog! We are looking forward to all the fun tonight and we hope to see you there!
