I hope you get lots of response!

I don't torch fast enough to do 50 in that short a time, but I'll be sending some in as soon as I get another batch ready.

[RSimmons]

Sorry this is bit late in the month - I just got it myself. I'll try to run another one with more notice next time.

No worries, I was just apologizing that I won't make it to that many by month's end since I mailed recently & am a bit slow.

Does the challenge work in Canada too ??

I think so but I am checking with Tucson to be sure. Should know shortly.

The challenge is good in Canada as well. Just fill out the form and send to the Canadian address for bead donations.
Thanks very much,
Robert

I finally found it:

I take that back. The "flier" doesn't have a clickable link, so I cannot find it either.

Here is the link that they sent me for the form:

[Mountain Snail]

I signed up. I hope I can make enough by the deadline! :)

[pierces*designs]

I am trying!! I want to make this one so bad!

[Glowbead]

I sent these out early this week--73 large and one small.

Susan you are my hero

[ElizabethCreations]

oh wow Susan !! that is so nice!!!

[Eileen]

So so cute! I wish I had a color printer, I'd love to print that out & hang it by my torch for inspiration!

[RSimmons]

Outstanding!

Robert

[NeenaG]

These are absolutely too cute! I love the raccoon! He would be my pick! I wish there had been more time in this challenge. I would have loved to participate. However, I am still very slow. I've started my own personal BOC challenge. I will try to make at least one BOC bead each time I'm at the torch. Then maybe when we get a fun challenge like this, or when I get 50 beads, I will be ready to mail!

i super love the cat beads, cats are the best!! last time, when my beads came in the mail i got a cat bead and it is the greatest thing ever- for the distance kids they ask what your favorite animal is and they sometimes get one of that animal. they also ask what you favorite color is.

i put pink and cats
i got a pink cat.

i took a wile to calm down from that :)

[Eileen]

That makes me smile, because I recently sent in a pink cat holding a tiny heart in deeper pink. I hope whoever got it was as happy as you were to get yours.

[Mountain Snail]

What counts as a medium to large? I just realized I wasn't making any specific size. Ahhhh! :lol:

[belliott18]

Oh my goodness! I love all those beads that Susan posted! You all know I received BOC and I am so jealous I never got to pick from that treasure chest! If I could pick one it would be the pig or the raccoon... or one of those in the top row! wowowowow! The kids are going to looove those!

Bigger than 1.25 inch is medium to large.
