You can join our incredible papercrafting community at NO COST. So what are you waiting for?
Edited to add: THIS OFFER IS NOW CLOSED -- Please feel free to complete the challenge, but I have now closed the RAK in return offer! Thanks for playing
Okay, now hear this:
I just went to the gallery and was looking through the first few pages, and there were like NO comments on so many awesome cards, and I thought to myself, WHAT IS UP WITH THAT? On the weekend my cards got tons of comments, which I totally appreciated, but I feel really bad for the people who just uploaded and are being neglected. SO, my challenge for you is to leave 25 comments on different cards. Pick ones you like and comment, comment, comment. When you have completed this . . . post your name below and PM me your address and I will send you a RAK!
I'm done! I did like 27 of them but I need to stop so I can go make supper! Thanks for the challenge. No RAK needed but thanks for the beautiful offer!
I made at least 20 earlier today. I was shocked at how few comments there were. So, I'll take a look at the newest since the last check and post some more!
I will also try to do the challenge, I am at work right now so the gallery is restricted. I can only view the forums, so I will do these when I get home. I will not make dinner (LOL) I will just head straight to the gallery. Great Idea!
NANCY:Yes, it counts as long as you did your 25 comments today -- once you have done this -- PM your address to me with CHALLENGE as your subject line and I will send you a RAK!
Took a while, but I finally completed my 25 comments. It was a pleasure because there were so many beautiful cards! Now I want to go back and keep looking and commenting! No RAK needed, although it was sweet of you to offer!
Still trying to complete it! I've managed 15 so far. You must have read my mind! I was looking and commenting this morning when I realized that some of the cards had a lot of looks but no comments! How can over 600 people look at a card and only 2 comment? If you're looking that close, it's got to be worth saying something! Sorry, I got a little off track, but this really puts my panties in a bunch! LOL
Well, I'm trying to take you up on the challenge, but I just ironed 2 dresses and a shirt while waiting for my first post to go thru! The gallery is really dragging tonite! I mean, I might get a lot of ironing done this way, but that's not what I had in mind tonite!!! I'll keep trying though cause the gallery has been outstanding lately! Kathy

This is so funny that you decided to do this today - it's EXACTLY what I was thinking! Tons and tons of great cards and no comments! When I get my scanner up and working, I hope we're not still in a comment "drought"!!!
I'll go to the gallery right now!!! And, even though I feel selfish, I think I might take you up on your RAK offer - you make such TOTALLY AWESOME cards, girl! Thanks for the challenge. To the gallery I go...
It's midnight here on the east coast, and I finally got my comments done! Thank goodness I always comment when I get up in the mornings and then later! LOL Thanks for the challenge. These cards ALL deserve a comment.
I made at least 20 earlier today. I was shocked at how few comments there were. So, I'll take a look at the newest since the last check and post some more!
OK. I was 1/2 done when a friend called. We talked for over an hour! Got my son to bed. Came back here and the gallery was soooo slow. Must have been from this challenge! So, I stamped for awhile and came back. I'm done now. I made 28 more comments in today's uploads. Wow! There were some great cards!
Amanda ~ I finally got it done actually 33 of them (just could not stop looking) but now that I have sat here for 4 hours I am going to finally go to bed (11pm here)!! The gallery was unusually slow tonight....Beate or Jenn must be approving at the same time or something......
Thanks for the challenge and have a great night!

Good gravy! That took forever! But so worth it! There are some awesome cards out there! No need for a RAK, Amanda...but I will take you up on it just cuz I LOVE your work and would be super honered to get one of your cards in the mail! We should all be doing this...RAK offered or not! And I got a bit carried away! That is so easy to do here!
I am trying but the gallery seems to be broken....who broke it???
It is taking an unusually very long time to comment, it usually is not this slow at this time.
I did it!! I know for sure that I did at least 25, may go back and do more for the sake of it, when things speed up or calm down or whatever is happening with the gallery tonight. You already have my addy;)
OK, so I went a little nuts and did around 50! I just couldn't stop! Just when I thought I would finish, one more cool card would catch my eye, then another....you get the picture!!!
Besides, I was just sittin' in the kitchen chillin' and talking to my DH about his frustrations at work (a WHOLE nutha thread!!!). He talked, I listened and commented. Great evening!
YAY! Glad so many people are taking me up on this . . . more more more, that is so what I want to see. The gallery looks a lot better, a lot more comments in there . . . keep at it . . . if you have not done this challenge yet, what is stopping you? Get to work!!!
Ok, I did at least 26 comments, (& got a lot of ironing done during the slow times!); I thank you, my husband thanks you & the members thank you for this RAK! Kathy

This was an awesome challenge! Kudos to you, girl! I have noticed that the gallery was a bit slacking in the comment dept...Could be due to the fact that it takes so long to get your responses to go through...Although once some people went to bed it went a bit faster...I did tons of posts...I know how sad it is to look for those comments and to get none! :(
This is a good confidence builder...Post ladies post! (and gentlemen too)
Maybe I should do this so that everyone will post more comments to my gallery??? ;)
I did at least 25. *does a little dance* Thank you for reminding us to show our appreciation for the beautiful artwork the members here create. I hope it becomes an ongoing thing (not the RAKs, but the commenting challenges threads! ).
I made the Commenting Challenge a bit more challenging!!!!
I did my 25 comments only on pics that had no comments. I can not believe one pic had 534 views and no comments. What a shame!
I have three things in my gallery since I'm new and it is disheartening not to have any comments. My Somebunny New card which took me an hour and a half to do, finally got one comment a few days ago. Ugh!
It would be nice if we all made an effort to acknowledge the efforts of all gallery participants.

I just got through all of today's additions. I lost track of how many comments I made, but I know it was more than 25! I would have done even more, but it's way past my bedtime and I can hardly hold my eyes open, let alone type - LOL! Great challenge! Thanks.
BTW - there are a ton of great cards today, but I just can't get over the Bubble Queen one - amazing!
