CARDtober Alternative Card Option

For those who have been trying to do every CARDtober challenge, there have been two things making it difficult for some. In the first place, my second and last challenges (interactive card and box card) were more difficult. In the second place, one of the challenges has not yet been posted. The last one is a problem for me, since I will be on the road the rest of October, starting tomorrow.

Grammadee, who is the author and moderator of CARDtober, is allowing me to post an additional challenge as an alternative. This brings the challenges to 32, assuming the missing challenge is still posted late. If it is never posted due to unknown circumstances, then those trying for the 50 point bonus will still be able to reach it.

If you accomplish 31 challenges, you still get that 50 point completion bonus. If the missing challenge is posted and you do all 32, you get an additional 5 points besides whatever points your Alternative CARDtober Challenge card would normally earn.

You can use the Alternate Challenge only once, in place of either the missing challenge OR one of the more difficult challenges.

So I am offering a "Pick Your Challenge" Alternative challenge, where you can choose from one of the following options--just be sure to post a photo of your card, and tell us which of these challenges you did:

Option 1: Make a card for your favorite holiday, whether it is Valentine's, Easter, Christmas, or whatever. It can be totally out of season.

Option 2: Make a card with a stamp/stamp set, die/die set, or product that you have bought in the last year but have never used.

Option 3: Make a birthday card. No restrictions or requirements. Birthday cards are just handy to have ready to send.

Option 4: Fashionista Challenge.  Make a card related to fashion in some way. This is the one I am choosing, and here is my card:

Twist: make at least one duplicate of your Alternate CARDtober challenge card, for an additional point for each duplicate card. I actually made multiples of this one because it was so easy and fun, so I am posting a picture of them all for an extra 7 points, since I made 7 duplicates of the original (for a total of 8 cards).
