Papertrey Ink Presents Stamp-a-faire 2014

August 23, 2014      Nichole Heady      9 Comments

SAF-2014-logo

PLEASE NOTE: This post will remain at the top for your convenience and easy schedule reference.  Please be sure to scroll down for all new posts added throughout the Stamp-a-faire festivities.  Because of sluggish loading speeds last year, only one video post will show on the front page.  You can use the arrows at the bottom of the page to toggle over to the next page, or you can utilize the link menu below that will be updated throughout the day.

The third annual online Stamp-a-faire event, brought to you by Papertrey Ink, is taking place today!  Below you will find the complete scheduling details and some helpful links as well.

STAMP-A-FAIRE FORUM

Myself along with the Design Team, will be interacting with you all day in the Stamp-a-faire Forum, which can be found HERE.  There will be threads started for each challenge and we will be checking out your projects through the InLinkz lists as well!  So be sure to stop by and chat for a bit and take the opportunity to ask your favorite designers questions and just get to know them better!  This forum will also give you the opportunity to chat with other stampers worldwide who are participating in this event!

How the chellenges work…

All of the challenges provided throughout Stamp-a-faire day will function much like our weekly Make It Monday Challenges.  Each Stamp-a-faire Challenge will have a coordinating InLinkz list for you to share your projects using your favorite photo-hosting site (Flickr, Photobucket, etc), gallery or your blog.  

Each list will be open until 7am EST Tuesday, August 26th, so you will have ample time to particpate and photograph your projects. Two winners will be randomly selected from each InLinkz list to each win a $25 gift certificate and announced on Tuesday as well!

Here is the full schedule:

SAF-2014-Schedule

We provided a printable schedule and supply list a few weeks ago.  You can access it HERE.

August 26th 7am EST- Challenge Projects Due:

At 7am EST on Tuesday, all of the InLinkz SAF Challenge Lists will be closed and we will no longer be accepting submissions that are eligible for prizes.  All of the winners from all the SAF challenges will be posted on our Stamp-a-faire Winners Page by 9pm EST Tuesday night.

Thank You to the Team

The entire Design Team has been working diligently behind the scenes for months to bring together all of the tutorials and videos you will be enjoying during tomorrow's event.  I wanted to take a moment to thank them for all of their hard work and dedication in seeing these preparations through.  There is already a pretty extensive workload required for our team members with the release schedule each month, so it was an incredible accomplishment to complete all of these extra tasks that coincided with that.  Thank you to the entire team!

As a reminder to ALL of our customers, Saturday, August 23rd also marks the day you can earn the Stamp-a-faire exclusive stamp set, Filled With Joy ($15 value).  This stamp set will be available for free on Stamp-a-faire day (August 23rd, 2014) to all customers who make a qualifying purchase of $100 or more between 7am EST and 11:30pm EST, limit one per customer.  Also note that project samples created with Filled With Joy can be seen  HERE in this post. 

We are looking forward to bringing all of you this amazing FREE stamping event!  We hope you will join us!

    Are the dies and stamps shown in the sessions available at Papertrey or were they only available in the limited sets in July?

    They were available as a limited time offer a few months ago. However, we will be selling the individual era kits in October so that is something you can look forward to! 🙂

    This was an amazing event! I can only imagine all of the very hard work, time, & creativity that the team put into it! It was simply brilliant! Kudos to all of you! I received my Sprinkles Make It Market Kit yesterday. I am blown away! I subscribe to many card making blogs but yours is by far & away – hands down – no question about it – the best of the best! I have never received a kit with the quality of materials such as this one! All of you should be so proud to be a part of this company! I am a fairly new subscriber to PTI. I don’t even remember how I found you but I’m so happy I did! Your standard of quality in everything you do shows through. You’ve really set the bar high & I don’t think any other company comes close. I just wanted to let PTI know I really appreciate them & their products!
