So, here's the "Manufacturer Challenge Rules" (applies to both manufacturers:

Create a layout, card or project showcasing any of the Go West Studios and/or Arctic Frog products. E-mail a scan or digital photo of your creation to PubCalls@gmail.com. Please do not exceed 300kb file size. Please make sure you include a supply list! The featured manufacturers will likely not be the only ones checking your work!!!Many magazine editors also check the Pub Calls Blog. This is a fact!

If you are contacted for a layout (by anyone, including manufacturers, magazines or any other entity) that is in an album as part of this feature, please let us know immediately at pubcalls@gmail.com so that we can remove your layout! (Oh, and so we can congratulate you, also!)

The Pub Calls Album will be made public on the specified date with a separate album for each manufacturer. This way, the manufacturer can check out the submissions in an organized manner.

There is a catagory on the side bar for the Albums to be a reference point for manufacturers, magazines or any other company looking for designers. This will also provide a location for inspiration for anyone that is working with a specific manufacturer's products.

You may submit up to two projects/layouts/cards for the album.Your layouts/cards/projects may be posted in any of your favorite galleries or submitted to any magazines, calls, contests or challenges. The Pub Calls Blog does not retain any rights to your works of art!

Please post any questions you might have about the challenge in the comments or e-mail them and we'll answer ASAP. Go West Studios and Arctic Frog have already been e-mailed, so they know that in a couple of weeks they can view anything submitted! **Just a reminder** This is not a contest. The manufacturers are under no obligation and are not sponsoring these challenges. In some cases, you will hear of person receiving RAKS or prizes, and in some cases specific assignments or Design Team positions. When that happens, it's an added bonus!!!! :) But, the cool thing, you are using your supplies (allowing you to purchase more!), you are inspiring scrappers with specific products, you are showcasing your talents which could possible lead to more, and so much more with these challenges! OK, disclaimer over! Now, it's time to...

Ready, Set, Scrap!!!!
