Hello, Bazaarians!

It was so hard to decide the winners for the Indecisive Laurel: Mom’s Card Crisis event. The team loved all of the applications so much that at one point, I was genuinely asked if everybody could just win. 💚

Thank you all for participating and putting so much creativity and effort into your cards - we had an amazing time looking through them all!

Rewards

>Participation:
✨ Title: "Jules’ Little Artist"
🎁 10 Chests

>Top 3 Winners:
✨ Title: "Mom Approved"
🎁 50 Chests

If you did not receive a reward, there are probably 3 possible reasons:

1. You did not fill out the submission form correctly. If that happened, you can DM me and I’ll check your work and make sure you receive the participation rewards.
2. Your submission did not follow the event prompt. The card needed to be created as a card from Laurel.
3. Your submission used generative AI. The use of generative AI was against the event rules and those entries were disqualified.

Thank you again to everyone who joined the event and shared your creativity with us! Allow me some time to share the rewards with all participants.
