Mmmmmmm…..have you been enjoying the yumminess of this week as much as we have? We’re so excited about the virtual tasting party that we’re going to be having with this week’s challenge. We have a feeling that we’re going to have lots of inspiration to spend time in our kitchens….and then on our treadmills….after viewing your links!
Just get a whiff of the delicious guest tutorials from earlier this week….
Amanda’s Mojito Cake from Ninth Street Notions
Epic Coffee Crisp Cake by Heather from Twin Dragonfly Designs
From Homebody, Holly’s Double Chocolate Torte
Quick, somebody, invent scratch n’ sniff computers!
We’re thrilled to have a talented pastry chef visiting The CSI Project this week, our guest judge, Amanda from I Am Baker.
Amanda will be visiting each of the blog posts entered into our challenge, then selecting one overall winner and her 10 favorite sweet treats to be featured on The CSI Project. We CSI Girls will pick our favorites to feature, too!
One lucky reader will have a chance to win a giveaway sponsored by Loralee Lewis: Designer Invitations and Event Styling.
Each treat entered into the challenge gives our readers an entry to win the random drawing of a $40 credit for the Loralee Lewis Etsy Shop. For additional ways to win, click HERE.
This week only, the link-up for the challenge will be open from midnight (EST) on Wednesday until midnight on Thursday, so get cookin’–you only have 24 hours to show us your delectable desserts! Don’t forget to include a link back to The CSI Project (buttons can be found HERE), so that you’ll qualify to win!
Here are the rules for the challenge:
1. All entries for this challenge need to incorporate the challenge’s theme. We are not simply a linky party. We have a specific theme for each week. All submissions are competing to be the judge’s top pick. If your project does not incorporate the theme we will have to remove it.
2. When you enter the challenge, please enter the link to the specific post on your blog that relates to the project — not to your general blog. This will help when a year from now, for example, someone who visits the site can find your project directly.
3. The CSI Project button must be in your blog post. HERE are the buttons. This makes it easy for other people to come over and join in the challenge if they like – and for us to know that we have the correct entry in the challenge when we’re judging. And if you use an older post, please update it so it’s current. If you don’t want to update it, please add the button to that post and to the sidebar for the week of the contest. Thanks!
4. The project you submit must be your own project and something you have made. (It can be inspired by something someone else has done, but it must be your creation.)
5. We ask that you are a CSI follower or subscriber to win the prizes. The more followers the site has — the more giveaways we are able to host
6. If you enter a project into our challenge, we ask that you please leave comments on at least 2 other entries in the contest. Not only is it nice to do, but it’s a great way to meet new people and make new friends.
7. By entering, you give us permission to spotlight your projects – we will give you credit and link back to your blog. You are welcome to enter as many themed projects as you like! You also give us permission to add your name to our newsletter list. If you wish to unsubscribe you may do so at any time.
Bon Appetit! We can’t wait to discover the delicacies you have to share with us this week….
