bon voyage! ~ fresh horizons, new adventures
It‘s time for round two in the Oh Canada Team Treasury challenge! This fun activity is designed to bring new exposure to Etsy sellers, our team and individual shops, as well as bring us all together in the spirit of beautiful treasuries!
The contest is open to anyone, and we invite all Etsy members to participate, even if you’re not an Oh Canada Team member. Buyers are also welcome to play!
The winner will receive the opportunity to select the theme for our next challenge. It could be an idea, a color, or even an item from their shop, or a favorite shop, to be featured in our next Treasury Challenge.
The Rules
1. Make a beautiful treasury in Treasury East.
2. Your treasury must incorporate the challenge’s theme, and include at least 8 Oh Canada Team members. Check out our team roster for members, or search for the tag OhCanadaTeam when choosing your featured listings.
3. You must include the words “OCT Challenge” somewhere in your treasury’s title.
4. You must tag your treasury with “ohcanadateam” and “OCT challenge”
5. In your treasury’s description, let viewers know that it is an entry in an Oh Canada Team challenge, invite them to join, and provide a link to our main blog, or this post.
6. If any item in your treasury sells or is removed, please replace it with another item from the same shop. Screenshots of each entry will be available in our Flickr challenge album for your reference before judging begins.
7. Please do not use your own shop(s) in your entry, including alternate shops.

Vicky's yummy soap is tempting as a treasury theme, but I'm still unpacking from my trip, so I'd like to volunteer to be a judge instead.
I'm game! This was a challenge, but I guess that's the point, eh? ;-)
