Design Contest: O Tannenbaum
Announcing our new Design Contest: O Tannenbaum! Think trees … specifically, think Christmas trees. To enter, submit your holiday design featuring an evergreen tree or decorated Christmas tree (I’m not picky) on or before December 4, 2012 by leaving a comment on this post with the link to your card on GCU.
Voting will open on December 5, 2012. You could win a $10 Amazon.com gift certificate! Just the thing for holiday shopping, either to go toward a coveted item or buying a stocking stuffer.
In the last Design Contest, the extra bonus votes earned by our winner made a difference – in fact, that was our closest race to the #1 spot yet – so if you want to snag yourself some bonus votes, here’s how you do it:
BONUS VOTES
- Nominate another artist’s card, get 10 extra votes
- Add 5 Christmas cards on GCU to a Pinterest pin board, get 5 extra votes
- Make a blog post about a Christmas card on GCU, get 5 extra votes
- Make a Squidoo (Weebly, Wix, etc) lens about Christmas trees featuring GCU cards, get 5 extra votes
Good luck to our nominees!
