T42 Challenges

[Meryl]

All these threads are getting exhausting - so I have started a new thread and we will post all challenges here.

The next challenge is to use my Reason For the Season Page Kit (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=4524.html) and of course you may include the Reason for the Season Add-On (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=4525.html) if you choose - good luck to you all :) We will choose a winner next T42!

[Impy]

Each year our family does a Live Nativity on our farm. This page (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=200320) is about the first year we did it. I have the find the news clipping for last year and I'll do a companion page. We hope to do it every year as long as we have enough kids to play the parts. : ) :santa1:

Oh, and Kay, I didn't mean there won't be any more babies, but some time we're bound to run out. LOL! Abby will be 14 months old this Christmas, so wrapped in swaddling clothes, she can still pass as a baby. ; )

I love these kits! Just perfect for this page!! Thanks, Meryl!

[Impy]

Oops, forgot to mention that I used this kit to decorate my Christmas in July tree. You can see it here:

[sssnoo]

just wanted to stop in and tell you how wonderful I think your Namibia kit is - the textures look great in the shop and I bet they arre fantastic when printed out. I cna't do any challenges this week as we are getting ready to head off to Ethiopian Heritage Camp - but I have some LO's already planned for this kit and your new six on the round QC. I have barely opened photohop this month darn it -

Have fun today at chat and the LO's look great -

[Meryl]

I think I've missed the chat. I'm in SA was it 5pm?

Oh what a pity you missed - yes it is 5.00 pm SA time - maybe next week? Would have been 3 South Africans - kaybutler@mweb was there.

[baflien]

I'll try and make it next week, thanks.

[Impy]

Here's my Namibia LO for this week's challenge. This is what I bought with my coupon for winning last week (thanks again, girls!).

Oh...so confused....I didn't see a thread to post a link for my Namibia page so I posted in the "New Kits" thread. This thread seemed to be for Reason for the Season pages and I didn't see a thread for the new challenge. I am reposting a link to my page here:

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=202155&cat=2621

[MaureenH]

I wasn't sure where to post either. Here's my layout with Namibia

[Meryl]

This was were I wanted all challenges to go - not srtart a new tread for each one - sorry if you were puzzled!

[Melissa]

Hi Meryl and everyone!

Here is my LO with Namibia: Rough Road (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=202777&nocache=1).

Thanks for creating this beautiful kit! :)

[Impy]

I just did a companion page to my Old Fashioned Stack Cakes (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=202716&cat=500&ppuser=81914) page I did for heritage. This is my Apple Butter page (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=202780&cat=1348) and the colors in the Namibia kit were PERFECT for this page. Just goes to show how versatile the kit is. Thanks, Meryl!!

[lambertg]

Posted LO using the Namibia kit in the t42 challenge gallery. My LO is called under the African sky

Princes and Princesses (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=203304&cat=500&ppuser=77821)

I think this might be one of my favourite kits of all time and the Quick Click is amazing. This kit is so rich in colours and textures - it is fabulous!

[the3chickens]

This kit is just fabulous and wish I had more time to do a proper LO to make full use of it. As it is, I pulled out a LO I'd started a while ago where I'd filled in the photos into Meryl's QC and have just added in a couple of Namibia papers for a quick LO. It's meant to be page 2 and I've yet to to do page 1. Steph's Birthday p2 (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=203332&cat=2621)

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=203816&cat=2621

[Meryl]

I can't tell you how very thrilled I was to see all these fabulous pages done with my Namibia kit - it was a slow starter, got a turbo-boost being IOTW and the pages are just wonderful, thanks to all of you! :tup: :tup: :tup:

:clap: :clap: :clap: The winner this week was sands healy for her page Just add Water (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=203128&cat=2621), lovely page Sandy! :clap: :clap: :clap:I need you to send me an email (prizes@dsplace.com)with your full name, used name and email address and I will send you your prize - my next new product.

Sandy has had the awful experience of an external hard drive failing (turned out it was dropped) - loosing all your photos, your pages, your kits, :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: is such an incredibly hard way to learn that you HAVE to have at least a double backup - don't rely on just one, it is NOT enough! So very, very sorry it happend to you Sandy. :hug: :hug: :hug:

For next week, you are free to use any of my products to do a page - any page you would like. Post them in the T42 Gallery (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=2621), and post a link in the thread for this weeks challenges (I have had a few who say one thread is difficult to follow - so will go back to the weekly thread....!) I look forward to lots of lovely entries!:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

[sammdc]

Meryl I just hope you are going continue with the African theme I so loved the bgs and texture in that kit and I have so many zoo photos to scrap.

At last I get to scrap with Meryl's Namibia. I was too pre-occupied last week to get it done for the posting bonus, but HAD to use it, so since this week is a 'free choice' for T42 I get to do one after all "Yippee". Just love this kit to bits Meryl, thank you. Enjoy the Age of Innocence (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=203970&cat=2621)
