May 2019 Design Challenge - Oxymoron Fun!
Apr 30^th, 2019, 1:06pm

Got a card idea that will "center around" this month's theme?

May 2019 Design Challenge
……………………………………………………………

Theme: Oxymoron Fun!

……………………………………………………………

Requirements:
- Create a brand new design which incorporates an Oxymoron phrase from this enormous list:

OxymoronList.com - http://www.oxymoronlist.com/

NOTE: If you choose a quote from this site, make sure it’s in public domain by looking up the quote/author BEFORE submitting your challenge card.

- Write your own verse/message, be creative and write a message that clearly speaks to your imagery, occasion and recipient.

- Blank verse will not be considered for entry in this challenge.

- ONE card per artist

- Submissions must be NEW, no existing designs

- Stock Card Creations entries will not be accepted

- Your designs should differ from those already offered in the category of your choice to offer shoppers a variety of choices, not more of the same.

……………………………………………………………

Entry Deadline: Friday, May 31st
……………………………………………………………

Please see more details on the challenge here on the Community blog:
