NOW
[SIZE="2"]This month’s challenge is STRIPES.
This challenge requires that you use stripes as a design element. They do not need to be straight nor do they need to be the entire soap. Put on your design caps and think about a way to use stripes to make a kick-ass soap.
SMF Challenge Specific Rules
*You can use any mold you wish, loaf, slab, individual, round.
*Stripes must be a noticeable part of your design. As stated, they do not need to be straight but they must be stripes. No swirlies (not the toilet kind)
*You cannot just make a two layer soap and claim a stripe. Come on now!
*Mica lines can count as stripes as long as they are not swirled.
*M&Pers welcomed!
*You can use embeds.
Challenge Entry Thread Opens April 19, 2017.
Challenge Entry Thread Closes April 26, 2017 (11:59pm CST)
Survey for choosing the winning choices opens April 27th.
Winners Announced April 30, 2017.

SMF Challenge General Rules
· To enter you must have a minimum of 50 posts and been a member for a month (sorry but no exceptions on this)
· Please add your name to the sign up list if you wish to participate (however, you don’t have to enter a soap at the end if you don’t feel happy with what you have produced)

· If you fail to make the challenge deadline, you are still welcome to upload your soap onto the thread, but your entry will not be eligible for voting. We still love to see anything you have produced.
· Even though there is no prize, this is still a competition. If your entry is deemed not to fulfill the general rules or the rules specific to the challenge in any way, then you will be given the opportunity to amend your entry. If this is not possible then your entry will not be included in the voting.
