Home > News > It’s a Purple Star Three Day Weekend!

Good morning, lensmasters! Today we have a special announcement coming at you from your Giant Squid Organizers Robin and Bonnie. You’ll want to take notes, for sure. Enjoy!

We’re going to have a little bit of fun for the upcoming 3 day weekend. All Squids, Giants and Non-Giants alike are invited to create a (new) brilliant lens and nominate it for a Purple Star.

We’ll pick the best ones of the bunch and dust them with a little purple goodness.

One lucky lensmaster will also get crowned the Purple Star King or Queen for the week of June 7th. This means that they’ll get to pick all 20 Purple Stars during that week!

Rules, there’s always a few!

All lens submissions must be made NEW for this challenge with first publish dates starting now through midnight EST Monday May 31, 2010.

Your lenses can be about any topic, and on any Squidoo co-brand including RocketMoms and all SquidClubs.

You may create and submit as many lenses as you like but they’ll need to be TIP TOP QUALITY to qualify for a Purple Star.

How to Enter:

1. Submit your Purple Star worthy lens link using the form you’ll find HERE.

2. All eligible (Purple Star Winning) lenses will be featured at the official Purple Star Facebook Page and the lensmaster’s name will be tossed into a hat. One lucky winner will be chosen at random as our newest Purple Star King or Queen for the week.

3. (And if you set the lens to charity you can also nominate it for the Sunshine Award!)

Good luck and have a fun and safe Holiday weekend,

Bonnie & Robin
Your Giant Squid Organizers
P.S. To those of you going for Giant Squid lensmaster and 100 Club by our next deadline, June 30, 2010, these lenses WILL count towards your 50 or 100!
