VSN Art Submission Specs
VSN is looking for your stamp art to include in upcoming stamping eArticles! See "Upcoming eArticle Art Challenge topics" to the right (or below if you are viewing on Mobile.)
I am looking for a wide range of styles - funny, scenic, weird, pretty, cute (but nothing pornographic please.) Each monthly challenge relates to the stamping techniques we'll focus on in that eArticle. The fun of each monthly challenge is to push yourself to try new-to-you techniques and revisit techniques you've forgotten.
While there is no financial compensation for contributions, two participant names will be drawn, each to win their choice of eight VSN issues OR a $20 eGift Certificate for use on VSN's Online Shopping Cart. But the best part is that your stamp art will be seen by thousands of stampers! It's fun!
Stamp Art Publication Submission Specs
Artwork can be submitted either by sending the original artwork by mail (non-returnable) or by emailing a 200-300 dpi tif file with additional required information. Please read the VSN Art Submission Specs booklet BEFORE submitting any artwork to VSN! (This booklet includes the submission email address.) It is a Adobe Acrobat pdf file.

Art Challenges
Important: Artwork not sent using VSN Art Submission Specs cannot be considered for publication and will not be part of the monthly challenge drawing!
Powdered Pigment Techniques
Challenge yourself to create a stamped project that uses powdered pigments (like Pearl Ex, Perfect Pearls, etc.) in some way. Submit your card using Submission Specs. (Email address for submitting artwork is found inside the file!) At least some major project elements must be stamped! (You MUST follow the specs for your artwork to be considered for publication and to be included in the challenge drawing!)
I will include as many as possible in the Powdered Pigment Techniques eArticle (to be published online on 6/20/13.) Two names will be drawn from among those who submit artwork to win their choice of 8 of VSN's 226 print issues OR a $20 eGift certificate usable on VSN's Online Shopping Cart. Deadline: Receipt at VSN no later than 6/5/13.
