Join DSP Designers Z and Bethy for a chat on Tuesday, September 4th at 10:00pm EST! We have a fabulous freebie for all that come to the chat. And we'll tell you about our upcoming challenge!

Get the time and date on your calendar for the chat and stay tuned to this thread for peeks and challenge details!! And remember, there's a chat bonus AND a posting bonus! So, come to the chat or stay-tuned to this thread for all the details!!

EDITED FOR THE DETAILS!!
Use EITHER That A Way (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=6429) by Beth Nixon, or Melon Daze (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=6439) by Elizabeth Weaver.

The prompt is Hip Heritage. What is that?? Taking an old heritage photo and scrapping it using a modern, fresh, bright kit! Check out some of our examples here:
A Swim Story (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=211391&nocache=1) using Z's Melon Daze

How fun are those?? Here's the challenge. Use EITHER kit, create a layout, use the prompt of Hip Heritage if you want but scrap however the kits inspire you. Post a link to your layout in this thread and you'll get a posting bonus!! (we'd love it if you'd post in the Props and Prompts gallery (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=3634) but that's not required!) And proper crediting is, as always, appreciated!

Post by September 18th, and you'll get this element set:

And remember, Hip Heritage is FUN!! Give it a try . . . you'll find yourself scrapping more of your photos in this fun way!

Can't wait for the details. I absolutely love the first of the month. This month is even better because the crisp fall evening air is starting to bless us. The first of the month and fall...I can't take this much excitement.

[Elisabeth]

Christina, your avatar photo is just beautiful!

Ooh, yeah, can I post a teaser for the challenge? We've done this one before with some wild and wonderful results, and it was quite popular! Time for that kind of fun again!

[Elisabeth]

And the chat bonus is now up; sorry it took me so long! I'm on at work for the four day holiday weekend!

Beth's an early riser (bless her heart) and I'm a late stayer upper so I edited her first post to reflect the kit links to That A Way and Melon Daze. We'll explain Hip Heritage and give you some links to sample layouts in the chat; be there!

Edit: Here is my first layout for this challenge: A Swim Story (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=211391&nocache=1). Thanks for looking!

[BethyNixon]

I've got layouts to post as well! I started playing with these kits and just couldn't stop! I put together more layouts this weekend than I did all last month!!

I'll stop in later today and get them posted!

[mommabyrd2003]

Running Away Hip Heritage Style (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=211584&cat=3634) is my LO using both Melon Daze and That A Way. I can't wait to play with these kits more. Love the colors.

I knew right away when I saw the kits what photo I was to using. It's my running away from home picture. It's hard to tell in my 'heritage' photom but my shirt has all the colors in the kit in it. I also obviously need arrows to runaway from home.

Runaway update... I went home the same day (okay mintures later) because I was 5 in the middle of the country. Where was I going to go? I got farther the next time - I walked to the neighbor's house.

Here's my layout - Timothy Sliding (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=211734&cat=3634)

[Donut]

This one's not really heritage, although it is a comparison of 1974 and now. I have a real Heritage one in the works with Melon Daze so will try to finish that over the weekend.

I just had to buy both kits they rock!!!

[EmmaJean]

Here's my LO with That A Way! What a fun kit this is. I didn't do hip heritage with it this time around because I am trying to get this karate book done, but I will try to get one done at some point and I will link it here as well.

[boobearsmama1]

Here is my layout using that a way. I didn't do heritage with this one, but I did with my melon layout. I hope thats ok.

[BethyNixon]

Of course it's ok Lisa!! Hip Heritage is only for inspiration. You can scrap your layout however you are inspired by the kits!!

And posting bonuses have been sent out to here!

[KY Bumpkin]

OK, I took a shot at the Hip Heritage prompt! I couldn't decide between the two beautiful kits, so I used both!

Here's my LO In The Name (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=212417&cat=500&ppuser=15642)

[KY Bumpkin]

Oh and I posted this one the other day and forgot to link here! It's doing double duty with Meg's TNS Ad Challenge and uses Z's Melon Daze!

[carti]

I just got my Newsletter this morning. I read about the Hip Heritage started Sept. 4.

I don't know why I get my Newsletter this late. I would not have been aware of this. I don't get to read everything on DSP site it takes me hours to read every single thing.

Anyway, just thought I would call your attention to this. I know DSP really tries to keep everybody informed.

[BethyNixon]

Yes there was an unfortunate delay with the newsletter this month Carti. I'm sorry you didn't see this earlier!

And I've sent bonuses out to here.

[Elisabeth]

Well I had quite a scare today but it was all okay; still, like a good scrapping mommy I had my camera ready and did a layout of it, lol!

Well, it's sorta hip because the photo is only 9 years old! LOL! But it's low resolution so that kinda counts. He He He. I had to use these photos with this kit, it's like they were made for each other:
