Stampin’ Up! Australia has very generously supplied products for the Helping Hudson team to award as prizes. These include items such as Simply Sent kits, punches, brads, ribbons, inkpads, cardstock and much, much more. The prize packs for each of the 9 challenges are worth over $60 in product value.  Here is a sneak peek!  Ooh yum.

There are some requirements in order to be eligible for the prizes.  Here's all the fine print guys. 

• Stampin’ Up! Australia requires that prizes are only to be awarded to Australian residents;

UPDATE:  We've had clarification that while we cannot ship prizes overseas, any challenge winners outside Australia have the option of nominating an Australian resident to donate their prize to.

• Participation requires a donation of either $2 per challenge, or $10 to enter all 9 challenges ;
(See below for Paypal and other payment options)

• You can enter the same card in more than 1 challenge, but you must make a donation for every challenge you enter. If you only make 1 donation the card will only be eligible for a prize in the first challenge you entered;

• Prizes will be awarded to the winners once their donation has been verified

• By entering you agree that if you are judged to be the winner a photograph of your project will be featured on this website;

• Winners of all challenges will have 72 hours after their name is announced in which to claim their prize.  If you're the lucky winner of a challenge, email us at hudsonchallenges@gmail.com and let us know your details so we can post your prize.  Any unclaimed prizes will be given away in a random draw of all challenge entrants on the 25th August.

If you do not have a blog we can help you take part.  Just email your name, the name of the challenge you are entering and a photo of your entry to hudsonchallenges@gmail.com so that the Helping Hudson team can include your entry in the relevant challenge.
