Happy March, yall! 

Every month I participate with my cherry friends Sara Scraps, Nicole Santos and Jessica Michaels in a Cherry Challenges YouTube collaboration where we pick a challenge from the message boards for our scrappy inspiration.

This month we are offering our own challenge. 

Love Your Letters is a chance to use your favorite alphas and give them SPECIAL treatment! 

Heat embossed your favorite alphabet stamps!
Cut your favorite alphabet die from a specialty paper!
Ink blend a special pattern onto your cut file title!
Alter your letter stickers to be truly something special!

However you desire, we encourage you to give a little something extra to the alphas you use for the title of your product and show those letters some love!

The fine print:
You must create a new papercrafting project for this challenge.
You may combine this with one other challenge that allows combining.
Make sure to highlight the Love you gave to your letters when you post the project.
You may enter more than once, but every entry should have a different special "love" applied to the letters.
Place your project in this thread for consideration before 11:59pm on March 31. 

The winner will be gifted a $5 ACOT gift card!

The ladies and I will come at ya with our specific Love Your Letters videos on March 15.
In the mean time, enjoy some existing inspiration for this challenge from our galleries:

Jessica did absolutely EPIC ink blending on this cut file

This is a good challenge for me since I typically just slap some thickers on my page and call it a day!

Are we allowed to enter more than once?

Let's say as many times as you want, but every entry needs to be a new, special type of LOVE applied to the letters?! Haha

Yes! Go for it, just make every entry have a different special love on the letters.
I'm going to update the original post. Thanks for asking!
