    Congratulations to all the winners and honorable mentions! Wow, those decisions must have been TOUGH! Such talent!

    I wanted to check in with a technology question (please forgive my possible ignorance of Flickr). I submitted an entry — my first ever — for the category, and thought I had tagged it correctly. When I search the pool, I see 221 entries (wow!) with the ‘givingcards’ tag. However, there are only 216 in the group linked in this post (and my entry is not there)… What did I do wrong with my tag? Can anyone help, for next time? THANKS!

    These stamps are really cute. They remind me a LOT of Greeting Farm stamps. Must be the same artist!

    Hi Mary, love your sunshine-y card! I took a look and you did add the proper tag, but it didn’t appear in the Hero Arts pool. In order to make it show up in the pool, you will need to click on the “Send to Group” icon above the photo and then select Hero Arts. (Be sure that you’ve joined the Hero Arts group at Flickr in order for this option to be available.) Hope that helps! Let me know if you have questions.
