February 2021 Contest Sandra Caldwell Babycakes Digis & Designs

 Hello and welcome to our February Contest!  This month is a special Celebration Contest as we are celebrating with one of our longtime DT member's, Holley, for her 11th anniversary of successful Brain Surgeries!  She is having a fabulous celebration on Holley's Blog and giving away amazing prizes every day this month in celebration of her health and in thanks to the crafting community who were so supportive of her when she was undergoing Brain Surgery.  


Go over to Holley's Blog and join in the fun as she will be mailing out over 100 prizes this month!! Prizes everyday so leave a comment on her blog everyday to win some goodies!

As always, you are welcome to enter an anything goes card this month and there will be a random drawing for a prize!  As long as your card is recent (no back linking).  


However, there will also be special prizes handed out this month, for those who follow the contest and use stamps from our sponsor, Sandra Caldwell of Babycakes DND on Etsy.  Join in the fun using THIS stamp and you will get a goodie from Holley's Blog

Sandra drew a special stamp just for Holley,  She's stamp #3403 Brains and Beauty and she will be on sale for just $1 starting on the 1st!!  so for just $1.50 you can make a card and be guaranteed a prize, not a digi, but a goodie in the mail!!  In a few days the stamp will go back to full price, but you can still get her and make a card to be guaranteed a prize!  You can also make additional cards with any other Sandra Caldwell stamps to compete for additional prizes!  and finally of course, we will have a random anything goes drawing for a prize as well!



And as always, we have a separate ANYTHING GOES contest that you are welcome to enter non-Sandra Caldwell ANY CARD into and the prize for that is a digi stamp as is our normal prize!!

Here's the Design Team's creation using this special stamp given by Sandra Caldwell. 
Now we are ready to see your fabulous creations!  You can share up to three cards per month with us, unless they are with the sponsor's images, then there is no limit.  Please grab our badge to let everyone know you play with us!  If you would like to try out to be a guest designer, please add GDT to your name when entering
