Are you feeling up to an artful challenge?  Well, Scott over at Vintage Image Craft has a great one for you with some great prizes to boot!  Here we are on the cusp of Spring with Easter right around the corner and what better way to celebrate than to make a basket or container using one of the great free images provided expressly for this challenge?

Here is what Scott has to say about the Spring Container challenge:

"Easter baskets. Bags of seeds. Vases of tulips. Jars of candy. And don't forget the humble egg. These are the "containers" of spring and Easter. What kind of unique container can YOU make using vintage images of spring?

Join our VIC Creative Challenge, April 2012, and create a unique Spring Container! Submit your craft photo, and if your Spring Container is selected, you will win a new copy of "The Artful Storybook," the fanciful survey of mixed-media, story-telling artwork, curated by acclaimed artisan, Terry Taylor.

You must begin with a Victorian vintage image of spring or Easter. Download FREE images from VIC's Facebook page, now into April. Or you can purchase ready-to-print Image Books from our VIC Store.

Incorporate one or more of those images into a unique craft that can serve as a container. Through Wednesday, April 4, you can submit your Spring Container craft photo to VintageImageCraft -- and you are in the contest!!

The top three winners will share adulation, international acclaim, and PRIZES!"

 VintageImageCraft invites you to submit your"Spring Container" by April 4, 2012!
