TGIF

April 29, 2011

YAY, we made it to another Friday! We have some beautiful new releases out this Friday, and an amazing Layout of the Week!  For those who received out newsletter and found the formatting was off, so sorry about that!  It is preformatted, and apparently they had a hiccup in their program.  Here are some fun things coming up

MAY 1, 10 PM EST:  CHAT

MAY 7: National Scrapbook Day

MAY 8: Mother’s Day

First today is our Layout of the Week:

Congrats to Yam!  She will receive a GC to the store :)

These are our featured kits.  They are $1.50 for two days ONLY.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Make sure that you are signed up for our newsletter, we hand out some amazing freebies in there as well!

There is still two more days to get your layouts in for April Variety Challenges. Our team has put together a variety of fun challenges all with a coordinating posting bonus.

 

DJ is hosting our Font Challenge this month and has picked two for us to choose from: Hey Gorgeous or Just One More Picture. Both are displayed in this layout:

 

If you are tired of looking at the same old computer desktop and are due for an update, you will want to be sure to checkout our Desktop Challenge that Becki is hosting.

 

Candy challenges you to back away from the subject and capture what surrounds it in our Photography Challenge this month. Crazsquaw (becki) has her layout done this month and had provided us with an excellent example of the challenge.

 

For our Numbers challenge, we are focusing on an age and being challenged to show a layout with someone’s age on it. (Hmmm, I wonder if that has anything to do with the fact the host has a birthday this month?) There are already some great examples of this in the PDW Gallery which the host has listed to help inspire you, like this one by DJ.

 

Chris is hosting our Lyric Challenge this month and has picked the fun lovin’ song, Feelin’ Groovy.

 

Jeri has found this beautiful layout by Starving Artitst Designs an inspiration and challenges us find our own inspiration from it in our Scraplift Challenge.

 

In our Scrap What???? Challenge, Tracy challenges us to scrap something we wouldn’t normally think about scrapping – a potty layout. Becki has created this milestone layout for her submission.

 

With each challenge you finish, you can pick up pieces of the PDW Collab, A May Day.

 

And just for reading all of this, you can also pick up part of it below. Happy Scrapping!

Here is a little gift for you made from this month’s designer collab, Animal Crackers in My Soup. If you missed it, you can learn more about this fun collab (and how to get it for free) in Monday’s post. You can also pick up another gift in that post too!
