Creations Inspired by (RED)

(RED) is happy to announce that Hallmark is launching its second card contest - this one with a Holiday theme - giving all of us the chance to create a card inspired by (RED) and benefitting the Global Fund.

Now through August 18th, Hallmark will be accepting submissions for the contest, simply called: Your Holiday.

Here’s how it works: you create an image and a few words for a (RED) holiday card and compete for 20 finalist spots. Those 20 finalist designs will be turned into real cards sold on hallmark.com this holiday season, and 8% of the net retail sales online will go directly to the Global Fund.

Finalists also get $250, another $250 is contributed to the Global Fund in their name, and they get a chance to win the Grand Prize. Later this year, we all get to vote for the Grand Prize Winner, whose card will be sold online and may even be in stores across the U.S. in 2009.

The Grand Prize Winner will also be awarded another $1,000 and $1,000 will be contributed to the Global Fund in his or her name. Plus an all-expenses-paid trip for two to NYC. Wow.
