The CSI Project | Create, Share, Inspire: The CSI Project

Welcome back to the CSI Project! I am happy to say it is Party time! This week has been all about summer salads that are cool and refreshing!!!! The tutorials have shown us and hopefully inspired you to create your own summer salads. So, have courage fellow crafters and cooks! You can create anything and come share it right here. Alright, onto the party. Let’s recap the week before we party! About a month ago, I asked all of you via Facebook if you had any cooking challenge ideas for June. Ms. Lina suggested Summer Salads and immediately I was sold. I love salads of every kind. So, I said Yes and made her the guest judge for this week. See sometimes it is good to pay attention to Face Book. Lina, who blogs over at Fancy Frugal Life even kicked off this week with her own, Oriental Salad Recipe. She is so FAB! Then, we had a great recipe called Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Bowls from This Crazy Blessed Life. So Yummy! To wind down the week of tutorials, we had this Cranberry Pecan Chicken Salad from Chameleon Girls. Thanks for the inspiration, ladies. You know how to inspire us all. If you are a guest poster or a guest judge, you can tell everyone on your blog by putting our button on your blog. Go here to get them. When you link up your Summer Salads, you can expect a visit to your blog from this week’s special guest judge, Lina. Read all about her here. Be sure to visit her blog and say hi. She is fabulous! Lina will be looking at all of your projects and picking her overall favorite and 10 that make the CSI cut. We can’t wait to see your projects this week!!! You might even take home the coveted winners button. Happy Linking, my crafty friends!!! So, let’s get on with the party!!! 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 10 pm(MST) Wednesday, June 6th , and ends at noon (MST) Friday, June 8th. 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. The CSI Project have a new Facebook page. Go here to “like” us. Also, go here to learn how you can be involved in Giraffe Grins, a CSI Project charity. There is a Giraffe Grins event coming up in June in San Diego so email me for more information on that! If you haven’t registered for the Forum yet, go here. So, Ready, steady….GO!
