Challenge rules

Allsorts is a fortnightly Challenge posted every other Saturday. In addition to the content below, we would ask entrants to also read our page here regarding Copyright.

1) Entry requirements:

a) You may enter each challenge a maximum of five (5) times providing each entry is a newly published piece of work.

b) We do not accept back-linking, i/e: entries on posts published prior to the start date of the current challenge, or previously published work copied to a new post.

c) Each entry must be from a separate post. If a post has more than one piece of work or collection within it, only one card/piece can be entered into Allsorts and it must be clearly specified which one is the entry.

To protect Allsorts of any possible Copyright Infringement details of all focal products used (free from internet is not acceptable). If an entry is inspired by another artist/crafter or any third party, Credit must be given to that source.

2) AI entries are not accepted and will be deleted. 

2a) If your entry uses any of the following listed products you, the crafter, accept sole responsibility for any subsequent Copyright issue which may arise from their use. Such entries will not be eligible for prizes or Top 7 selections and at our discretion may be deleted. These items are colouring pages, free internet images/clipart, re-purposed greeting cards, product packing and printed napkins. This list is not exhaustive.

3) Your blog post, Pinterest, FB or Flickr post must mention us with a link back to our blog. However Instagram does not offer this option so in fairness to the majority of entrants who do include links in line with challenge rules, will not be accepted.

4) Challenges will close Friday's at 12noon (GMT) and Top 7 announced later that day, usually 6pm GMT

5) Winners will be chosen by random org., and will be announced on the last Friday of the month (list of dates on challenge sidebar). Any prizes unclaimed by the given date in winners posts will be forfeited. Prizes are non transferable and no cash alternatives are available.

Update October 2025: Due to Postal and Customs changes across the World impacting on reliable delivery of prizes we will no longer ship outside the UK. However, going forward some craft companies will offer gift vouchers to entrants from non UK Countries although this cannot be guarantee for every challenge. But we hope you will still continue to join in our challenges as a place in or Top 7 and selection as Guest Designers remains open to all. 

6) In the best interest of the challenge we reserve the right at all times to preclude any entry or entrant and will not enter into any dialogue in such an eventuality.

7) Following EU guidelines, minors (under 18 years of age) entering the challenge will not be selected for winners or top 5 spots in order to protect their identities and DT's may prefer not to comment on such entries.
