Are you ready for your chance to win a$100 gift card from Dollar Tree? This month one lucky reader will walk away with the prize for submitting their best $5 craft idea.

I am having no luck uploading a pic to enter in the Wedding craft contest. I need to know exactly where to post it as I do not have a blog yet and any advice about uploading the pic. Am I limited to one pic?

Debby
I don’t understand the linky part. I have posted my project in the community forum area but that last step evades me. Can anyone point me in the correct direction? Thanks.
heather
@Debby, the linky party closed on July 6th, otherwise there would be a little form you could fill out at the bottom of the party to enter your project.
Krystal
So does that mean my entry did not make it in the contest? I entered before the cut off time but didn’t see mine anywhere? Jus want to know I I entered wrong for next time but didn’t get a response last time I asked
