Here are the instructions for this month's recipe card challenge/exchange:

1. Click HERE for this month's starter kit. The majority of your card(s) must be made with this kit to ensure all the cards “coordinate” with each other. Feel free to use additional CU items to enhance your cards (for example, brushes, actions, etc.). The starter kit will be free to those who used the prior month's starter kit to create and share at least one recipe card.

2. The general theme for this month's cards is your favorite recipe for “THANKSGIVING or other DINNER get togethers ~ the post below this one includes more information. Be creative and have fun designing your cards! If you need a specific metal tag and don't have it from a previous kit, send me an e-mail and I'll make it for you.

3. Create your original card at 6" wide X 4" tall (1800 and 1200 pixels) and save it as a 300 ppi jpeg, quality between 8 to 10. These are the print-quality cards that will be shared with all participants. You will also need to resize your card at 72 ppi to post in the gallery.

WHEN FINISHED with your card(s), do the following 3 things:

1. E-mail your print-quality, 300 ppi recipe card to LetMeScrapbook@hotmail.com so it can be included in the download file at the end of the month. Do not share your print-quality card on your blogs or through any other means without my prior approval. Several participants have also asked for blank copies of the cards you design, so if you're willing to send me both (with and without the words), that would be great!

2. Upload a picture of your 72 ppi card to the Recipe Card Challenge Gallery. Please upload only your actual recipe card ~ not the blank cards. You may also post a copy of your 72 ppi (web version) on your blog if you’d like, and then include a link to the forum in case others are interested and want to participate.

3. Post a link here in this forum thread no later than November 30.

At the end of the month, all participants will receive a link to download all the cards created that month. Bon appétit!!

It's time to gather those Thanksgiving and big family dinner get-together recipes -- that will be our focus this month. Feel free to include recipes for a main dish, side dish, salads, desserts, pies, breads/rolls, vegetables, gravies, leftover turkey dishes, etc. Can't wait to see what you come up with!

I'm so excited. I'm about to participate in my first recipe card challenge. When I email Maurine my cards should I insert them in the email or zip them up?

The cards are usually a smaller size file, so I usually just email her the card and the blank one (not zipped up).

I don't know what I did wrong. I made a posting and then edited it to put the link in for my card that I uploaded. It was showing up but now none of it is showing up.

[jimmyrose]

Wow, this is way too cute. Love it. Off to find the recipes.

[Brandee]

This is my first recipe card challenge.

You can pretty much do anything you want - Thanksgiving breakfast sounds fun!

[Maurine Stettler]

All October participants should have received their coupon code to get November's kit. If you didn't get it, please send me an e-mail message.

May I have a Breakfast and Brunch label, please! I am sure you have already done these but I was not very constant about getting your kits. I think it would be nice if you were to have a kit with labels for recipes.
Thanks so much! As usual this kit is lovely and I can hardly wait to do my recipe.
Love,
Carla
