SMEARED & SMUDGED MERRY CREEPMAS HOP!!~!

12 Days of Creepmas 2012 . We'd like to invite YOU to join in this year and participate in our 12 Days of Creepmas Smeared and Smudged Style 2012 event. We're offering up a cool prize at the end, and know that you'll have a blast! How can you do this, you ask? Well, there are a couple of ways to participate this year, and below you find all the details. 12 Days Of Creepmas Jolly Blogger What You Have to Do: Commit to making and displaying one stamped project on your blog for 12 Days in December. To commit, add your name and blog address in a comment under this post by November 27. The Rules:The project must be handmade by you and be posted by 9:00 am Pacific Time every scheduled day. The project must be stamped, with either a rubber stamp or digi stamp used somewhere, and must be either Christmas or Winter Holiday themed AND fall into the category of "Creepmas" (so creepy, weird, or grungy, basic S&S style). This year we are once again allowing all digital projects as long as they are the bloggers original digital art. Projects must be "new" in that they can't have been posted anywhere before, including on your own blog, other blogs, forums, or other websites. In other words, no re-using previous projects. Bloggers are allowed to combine projects to fit into other scheduled postings; for instance, if you have to post a DT project that day or are following other challenge criteria, you can combine the project as long as it follows the 12 Days theme. Bloggers must also post the 12 Days Blog roll with links to all participating blogs in either their daily posts or on the sidebar of their blog for easy access. The 12 Days blog roll will be posted here by November 29. To qualify for the prize drawing at the end of the month, you must post a project EVERY SCHEDULED DAY in December. If you miss a day, you will still qualify to receive a survival button, but will not qualify for the prize drawing.

The Rules:You must leave a comment on EACH participating blog every scheduled day to qualify for the prize drawing. Your comment should be about the project or something related (ie-no "Here's my comment for today" or "I'm here!"...these types of comments won't count!) and cannot be a copy/paste comment. If you miss a day or a blog, you will still qualify to receive a survival button, but will not qualify for the prize drawing. Grand Prize Drawing At the end of the 12 days, we will be drawing for an awesome shopping spree from Smeared Ink! Each person who successfully completes the 12 Days as either a Jolly Blogger or a Merry Hopper will receive one entry toward the prize drawing. If you successfully complete both, you will receive two entries. (Meaning if you are a Jolly Blogger and you comment on every blog every day, you have successfully completed both) We hope you will join us this year for our 12 Days of Creepmas 2012 Event!!

Smeared and Smudged Member Blog Hop

It's that time again! Time for the Smeared and Smudged member blog hop. Our hop will be on

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15th, so that gives you until November 13th to sign up. The blog roll

will then be posted on the 14th for everyone to add to their post.

The theme is ALTER SOMETHING! No cards allowed...you have to alter an object. Use your

imaginations, it can be a can, box, coaster, book, creepmas ornament, etc. Also, don't forget the S&S

 rule that is has to be stamped somewhere (digi stamps are fine) – we love when you use Smeared Ink

 stamps, but it is NOT a requirement to participate.

If you want to participate, and we really hope that you do, leave a comment here with your blog

address by NOVEMBER 13th!!! Then make your project and post it to your blog, along with

the blog roll, by 9am (PST) on THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15th. If you can't participate this time

 around, no worries, we hope you will hop along with us to see the wonderful projects.

Introduction to Ceepmas

CREEPMAS
A reaction to the continuing incursion of Christmas into Autumn and Halloween, CREEPMAS is a
 
good-natured chance for Halloween lovers to exact revenge by bringing some spooky good cheer into
 

 the holidays or, more appropriately, the Hallowdays.
