Hello Challenge Particpants!
I am pleased to say we have 20 participants in our typography
challenge! Some are from previous challenges (welcome back!) and we
have some new faces too (yay!). For the newbies, I wanted to clarify
what happens next and what to expect throughout the challenge. Things
happen in this order:
1. You fill out the form on the challenge homepage and the hostesses
put up your photo and profile :

(done!)
2. You become a contributor to the challenge pinboard on Pinterest :
http://pinterest.com/rikkaw/typography-challenge-march-2012/ (I do
that and most of you are all set up)
3. You complete your project and blog about it by March 31st. Those
of you who don't have blogs, I'll hook you up like I did here:

4. Throughout the month of April, we vote for our favorite project.
Please take a minute to vote for your favorite project from out
Naughty Notions Challenge:

5. Winners will be announced in the first few days of May.
Easy right? Any questions or concerns will be addressed promptly, so
don't hesitate to ask.
CraftGawker, CraftGossip, Totally Tutorials, BurdaStyle, linky
parties, and asking favors from other bloggers are all ways to promote
the challenge, promote your project, and get votes. Please take
advantage of those sites.
I have all the participants listed on my right sidebar at
www.ricochetandaway.blogspot.com so you can just go down the list and
visit each blog. Please be friendly and get to know your fellow
participants. Follow their blogs, like their facebook pages, find
them on twitter, add them to your google + circles. These challenges
are not to pit bloggers against eachother, but to challenge ourselves
to learn a new skill and step outside our boxes. So take advantage of
the friendly atmosphere Keren and I are trying to foster and start
networking and making new friends!
Take care and have a great weekend!
Rikka J.
Ricochet and Away!
