(So you can enter one or both parts of this contest.)

The first part is a writing contest. We want you to write a 100 word drabble involving Tonks, summer fun and her newest winning color in the elimination game, malachite! (Click this link so you can see what the color malachite looks like! And click here to see the natural color of the malachite stone!) Remember, as with all drabbles, you must write a short story of 100 words involving all these elements - Tonks, malachite and summer fun.

The next part is a graphics contest. Simply design a graphic involving the same three elements - Tonks, summer fun and the color malachite. You can design an avatar, a siggy, an avatar and siggy set or a banner - your choice! Of course there will be a prize for the winning entry, something with Tonks that shows you were the winner!

We can't wait to see what you come up with for those contests, so start getting your entries in now! You have until the 20th of May to get your entries in, so good luck and have fun!

Any comments or questions you might have should be directed here - comments. Thanks!

Entries are due by 9 PM PST (12 AM EST) to either me (Kelvin/cake.ninjak) or Linda (Slytherin Fox). Votes will also be PMed to us after we post the entries.

Have fun and get creative!
