Linkup Now for the Halloween Extravaganza Challenge!


Come one, come all!  It’s time to enjoy the spooky delights and spine-tickling frights of Halloween at The CSI Project’s Halloween Extravaganza!

We’re just DYING to see what you do to celebrate and decorate for “the fright before Christmas.”  Do you try to compete with Disneyland for the block’s most haunted mansion?  Or do you keep the fright factor low and concentrate on fall’s bounty?  What do you serve to those who ring your doorbell on October 31st–tricks or treats?

Welcome, Lara!

It’s a real thrill to have Lara from Less Cake {More Frosting} here with us as our guest judge, this week.
Less Cake{More Frosting}

She’ll be dropping by (unannounced, of course) your blogs to view the frightfully creative projects that you enter into the challenge.

Our other guest this week is Renee of Renee’s Soirees.

Win a $40 credit for party printables!

Renee is generously offering the winner of our randomly drawn giveaway a $40 shop credit!  Each project that you link to the challenge will automatically earn you an entry to this giveaway.  (Click HERE to learn more ways to win.)

We’ve seen some frightfully fun projects already from our guest bloggers.  Just in case you were buried alive earlier in the week and missed them, here’s another chance:

Twin Dragonfly Designs’ Little Blackbird Wreath

A Bat Motel Paper Wreath from Social Salutations

Mrs. Greene’s Silicone Skull Mold

It’s just scary how creative our readers, are, isn’t it?

Well, now it is your turn to wow us with your creativity!

Please remember that to be eligible to win this week’s challenge and giveaway, you must provide a link back to the challenge in your entry post.  It’s easy–we have a button ready for you to insert into your post HERE.  For additional challenge rules, please read below.

You’ll find the linkup for this week’s challenge at the end of this post, following the challenge rules.  This challenge begins at midnight (EST) Wednesday, October 19th, and ends at noon (EST) Friday, October 21st.

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.

Now, come in, children….come in…and vvvvelcome to our little party!
