For the Young Folks Contest --- Judging Phase
Hello! This is my first contest! This contest is to make 2-3 cards that relate to each other flavor-wise, or by the card and art that are somewhat cute
Something you might see in a children's book.
This contest will end and May 5th.
Here are the requirements:
- Must be no less than 2 cards and no more than 3 cards
- Something enjoyable to the eye and to read
- NO tokens
- Child-Friendly
Example: http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/mischievous-dragonette?list=user, http://mtgcardsmith.com/view/bill-the-farmer
Each entrant is permitted up to 2 submissions consisting of 2-3 related cards
1st place gets 1 favorite and a First Place trophy
2nd place gets 1 favorite and a Second Place Trophy
3rd Place gets 1 favorite and a Third Place Trophy
I will follow the 1st-3rd winners as well
Have fun!

(perhaps) Make 2-3 cards that relate to each other flavorwise. Try to use art that is somewhat cute, like something you might see in a children's book. (right?)
The way it is currently worded it sounds like I can ignore the "children book art" in favor of simply making flavorful cards, which is fine but makes the contest title seem ambiguous.
Also, consider wording the submission statement thus:
Each entrant is permitted up to 2 submissions consisting of 2-3 related cards (or between 2 and 6 unique cards).
Nice idea for a contest! Good job getting this set up, and good luck with its reception, can't wait to see some cool entries!

Not sure if the first one really meets the criteria.
@Strongbelieves I know. Goldilocks' breaking and entering and getting off scotch free is terrible.

I'll go a little easier: the art doesn't have to look TOO young, but it has to be appealing to younger viewers.

Glad you like it! Notice that they are all {u} uncommons with a BNG set symbol? Not that good on their own, but together, Wowza!
