Think you have the game of Survivor all figured out? Think again!

Can you out-wit, out-stamp, and out-last your opponents? If so, get ready to play Survivor, Shack style!

Game Start Date: August 6, 2008

Gallery Close: August 5, 2008 at exactly 8:00pm EST. No late entries will be accepted so please be sure to have your entry uploaded on time.

Object of the game: To have your card avoid elimination and be the last one remaining in the gallery.

Instructions:

Make yourself a card as your official game entry. You can make your card very plain and simple with the hope that what you do put on your card flies under the radar and avoids elimination. Or, you can choose to make your card absolutely wild and crazy and over the top with hopes that the crazy items on your card don’t get you eliminated! Or anything in between!

When your card is completed upload it to our Shack Survivor card gallery (http://stamp-shack.com/photopost/showgallery.php?cat=638).
Once the contest has begun, we will release an 'Elimination Statement' each and every morning. If your card contains the item listed in the elimination statement for that day, it is removed from the game and from the gallery. An elimination statement might look something like this: 'If your card contains a red brad, you are eliminated from play.' So, all entries containing a red brad(s) will be eliminated from the game.

Elimination statements will be released each day until we have just one card remaining in the gallery. The final card is our Shack Survivor and is the winner of the contest and the prize!

The Rules:


Only ONE entry per player, please.
Please be sure that your entry/photo is as clear as possible (ie. no tiny little photos, no blurry photos).
When uploading your entry, be sure to provide an accurate list of all items/colors/techniques/stamp manufacturers used on your card.
To keep things fair, only standard greeting cards will be accepted into play. No 6x6 recipe cards, ATCs, or altered items are permitted.
There must be at least 15 entries uploaded in the gallery on the day that the game commences. If there are fewer than 15 cards in the Survivor Game Gallery, the game will be postponed until a later date or until we have the minimum number of entries.
The Prize: The prize for this round of survivor is a $25 Gift Certificate for My Favorite Things (http://www.mftstamps.com/), which was generously donated by Kim van der Sanden herself. Thank you so very much, Kim!

Good luck guys!!

Nothing like a bit of pressure to get started! Come on, get stamping. It was so much fun last time, even though I got out really early!
Can't wait for it to start.

Great news Sherry!
This is such a fun contest. I'm going to get busy on my card this weekend, and hope for better luck this time around.

I'm going to use my flood cards as inspiration. Do you think that will give me luck? Maybe I'll use this opportunity to use a stamp I "had to have" but never used. Will that bring me luck? The problem is, just when you think you've worked out this game, Sherry switches it up and changes her approach...It's going to be lots of fun!

I just posted my entry for Shack Survivor. This is my very first time playing. I've been watching for some time now and have come to the conclusion that simple may be better. Hopefully I'll survive for awhile if not all the way to the end! LOL!

Come on, Ladies! Post those cards!

I just posted my too using my newly delivered JR stamper add on kit with wood block! I have to say I am now in love with my JR stamper! The wood block is just the ticket!

I hope I rolled the dice right for this game! What do you think?

I knew something was up, when I checked my email (I've been on vacation) and found that my old survivor card had been moved to a different category! I better get on it.

ooooohhhhh, I just browsed around MFT website. Some really lovely things there for the winner. Thanks so much Kim for the donation. I'm crossing my fingers and toes that my little birdie arch does the trick.

It's been a busy weekend - but I don't want to miss out on all the fun.
So - I finally found half an hour to make a "quickie" card.
I'm going really simple this time ( didn't have time to get too fancy LOL ) and hope that it brings me luck. All those brads and ribbons and stuff just got me into trouble in previous contests, so I'm hoping that "real simple" does the trick, but
I'm still wishing everyone else good luck too.
