9. Prize winners cannot receive a prize in two consecutive challenges but are welcome to join and be judged. For instance, if an entry wins a prize in Challenge #1, that artist would not be elegible for a prize again until Challenge #3.

10. The prize offered is not returnable. The challenge/contest is more for the fun of playing and sharing your creativity than it is about the prize. A prize of the winner's choice of one of the E-Books offered at Poly Clay Play, will be awarded for every 10 participants, up to three prizes total. For example, if there are 3 prizes given, they will be awarded to the1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners.

Prize List
If there are less than 3 entries, no prize will be awarded.
3 - 9 entries = 1 Prize Awarded
10 - 19 entries= 2 Prizes Awarded, one each to the 1st and 2nd Place Winner.
20 - 100 entries = 3 Prizes Awarded. One each to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place Winners

Winners will be notified by email. If you have won a prize and have not been contacted, your email was probably lost in cyberspace or a Spam folder. Please don't hesitate to contact me!

11. You must agree to have fun! That is the main purpose of the challenges offered at Poly Clay Play!

12. Prize entries will be posted the day that judging begins. The prize winners will be announced after judging is over and will be moved to the top of the page. You will have to wait on pins and needles for the entries to be posted! LOL Have fun and join the challenge!
