All of us here at The Tag You're It! Challenge would LOVE for you come play along with us this week and in the weeks ahead. We're calling this a mini challenge because it will only run for 5 days. Our regular challenges will be every other week. We'll be focusing on creating CAS tag projects that will stretch our creativity. First up to inspire us is Karin Åkesdotter with this ADORABLE summer scene tag! Please read the HOW TO PLAY ALONG page before creating and submitting your tag related project. When you've created your project come back and add it to the Inlinkz below.

Check out all the GREAT ways the design team has interpreted Karin's tag!

Introducing the Tag You're It Challenge!

Welcome to our BRAND NEW Challenge!!!

If you LOVE creating Clean and Simple TAGS and CARDS, this challenge is for YOU! Each month we'll feature a designer's project for inspiration. You'll link up your creation, then come back to see if it was TAGGED as the winner! All projects TAGGED become eligible for an optional guest designer spot, in a future challenge.

Our focus will be tags but a card or a scrapbook layout with a tag even if it's teeny tiny, is acceptable. Even bookmarks can take the form of a tag. Just have fun and be creative with TAGS! Please read the How To Play Along page for more information.

Our first challenge will take place on Friday, July 4 with a super talented designer that knows how to create OUTSTANDING tags. I'm sure she'll inspire us to create our own tiny masterpieces! I hope you'll join us in our first game of TAG!!!

We're looking for a GUEST DESIGNER to INSPIRE us in a mini challenge to get things started! The mini challenge will be posted on Friday, June 27 at 9:00am EDT and close on Wednesday, July 2 at 9:00pm EDT.

Submission Instructions: If you're interested in becoming a guest designer email us using the Contact Form in the sidebar. Please provide your name, blog address and a link to 1-3 tags or cards with tags you've created in the email. If you're selected, you'll be contacted by email. The deadline to enter to become the mini challenge guest designer is Wednesday, June 18 at 9:00am EDT. We'll announce the guest designer for the mini challenge on Friday, June 20 at 9:00am EDT.
