			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Make a Nintendo craft, win $250!</h3>
<p>Get your craft supplies ready warm up your NES—we&#8217;re having a Nintendo-inspired craft contest! Well over 6000 people have downloaded our <a href="http://www.happyseamstress.com/knitting/mario-sweater-vest-pattern">free Mario Sweater Vest pattern</a>, and it&#8217;s just been featured in the latest issue of <a href="http://www.happyseamstress.com/press">Nintendo Power</a> so we&#8217;re in the mood to celebrate.  If you&#8217;ve ever made a Nintendo craft, send us a photo. If you haven&#8217;t made one yet, what are you waiting for? Get crafting, and send us a photo of the result. We&#8217;ll post it in an <a href="http://www.happyseamstress.com/photo-gallery/nintendo-craft-contest">online gallery</a> where our website visitors will vote for their favourite ones. We&#8217;ll send the winner a grand prize of $250! The second place will win $150 CAD, and third place wins $75 CAD. All three winners and their entries will also get featured on my blog!</p>
<h4>How to Enter</h4>
<p>Just make something Nintendo-inspired, and send us a photo of it using <a href="#enter">this form</a>. Please submit only one entry per craft. If you&#8217;ve made more than one Nintendo craft, you can submit multiple entries, but you will have to fill out the form separately for each entry. And, please only send in photos of Nintendo crafts that you made yourself.</p>
<h4>Judging</h4>
<p>All acceptable entries will be posted in an online photo gallery, where you and our website visitors will get to rate each photo out of five stars. <strong>On June 30, 2010</strong> the contest judges will look at the top 10 voted entries, and pick our three favourites to award prizes. The winners will be notified via e-mail by July 15th to claim their prize. Please note that you will need a PayPal account to claim the prize.</p>
