Two days ago I came up with the idea to start a Photo Challenge on Instagram. Little did I know, you would eagerly await the start on December 1st!
I’ve received some wonderful comments and suggestions. But the best help of all was when Dot showed me how to make a better posting for it.
I went from this:

To this:

I changed just a few of the challenges. I hope you’ll participate; I can’t wait to see everyone’s photos!

Take a look at these creative hand-made greeting cards and gift tags.

Winnie’s Inky Fingers
My camera doesn’t do justice to these beautiful originals from Winnie’s Inky Fingers.
When I first imagined my inaugural Holiday Gift Basket Giveaway, I immediately contacted Winnie. She eagerly created these one-of-a-kind sets to give to one lucky reader.
Look at this sample of her wonderful work:

Merry Christmas

Christmas Charm

Merry Little Christmas
Each card and tag is stamped, inked, colored, and embellished by Winnie. She’s been making them for family and friends and posting her work on her Blog, which is how I found her. She’s inspired me to try my own hand at card making. But hers are much, much nicer.

Let It Snow!

Snow Tag

Peace on Earth

Peace Tree

Joy

Joy Tag

Peas on Earth

Peas
I love the stories she has behind each card she makes with someone special in mind. Her cards are not only skillfully crafted, but done so with a backstory, with character and plot and memories and hopes.
One lucky reader will win all five sets: Merry Christmas, Let It Snow, Peace on Earth, Joy, and her humorous Peas on Earth. Each card and tag are individually sealed in a protective sleeve. Not only is she creative, she’s cautious!
This quality collection is perfect for mailing or hand carrying. You can use the matching tag on a gift or as an ornament. Winnie’s Inky Fingers Cards and Tags will be a delightful delivery to whomever you choose!
If you’d like to win this set of five matching greeting cards and gift tags, just follow the directions below.

There’s a trend going around Instagram, a challenge to post a photo a day for a month. Each day has a particular theme or suggestion. It’s fun to follow and see what a variety of people come up with for, say, “Turkey” or “autumn”.
Such a wonderfully interactive way to share your world, so I’ve designed my own photo challenge. Care to participate? All you need is a cell phone camera and your own Instagram account.
Starting December 1st, just add the hashtags #FranklyMyDearMojo and #25PhotosofChristmas to your photos and let’s have fun!
