October Card Chain Challenge

Since last month's Card Chain Challenge was so much fun, and since a number of people expressed an interest in signing up if we did it again, we're going to do it again!

The basic idea is that you receive a fellow cardmaker's snail mail address, make her a card, and mail it to her. Everybody gets a hand-crafted card so everybody wins!

You will also post the cards you receive in the online gallery of your choice, and I will post these blog/gallery addresses on my blog along with a picture of the card. Everybody gets increased visibility and/or blog traffic, so everybody wins!

The whole process is fairly straightforward, so the chances of my screwing up are minimal. Everybody avoids administrative duties, so everybody wins!

Each person will make a card for the person immediately above her in the chain. The first person in the chain will make a card for the last person in the chain.

See Guidelines here.

You can use as many of the following options as you like, but you're only required to use one of them.

I'm not so "up" on this MrLinky thing ...
I usually give my cards away to charities or fund-raisers, but I'd like to give this exchange a try - sounds like fun! Though I'm a digital/hybrid card maker, time constraints prevent me from blogging, so no blog, but I post my cards at Flickr - here:

Anyone want to exchange, email me through Flickr!
