[FormbyGirl]

Featured Designer Challenge by Cathie and Formby (the Luvaducks)

Who's up for the Featured Designer Challenge for December? Well, the newsletter is not out yet, but a little bird told me that

The featured designer this month is Amber Gray.

This challenge uses, exclusively, items from the Designer of the Month featured in the DSP Monthly Newsletter. The products used can be purchased or from the freebie gallery, but everything used on your layout must be from the featured designer. (No items from pre-designer days, such as SNL kits, etc.)

You earn a posting bonus for doing 5 layouts and another one for doing 10 layouts. Posting Bonuses to be announced. In addition, there is a random draw for a free page kit at the end of the month.

If you are adventurous, you can go for the MOST OF prize also. See the rules for the most of challenge by clicking here. (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28087)

ALL LAYOUTS MUST BE PROPERLY CREDITED AND COMBINED IN A SINGLE POST. See instructions for crediting here. ( http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=28088) Here is the link to the FEATURED DESIGNER GALLERY (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=4997), but you can post anywhere as long as you include a link in this thread.

Deadline for submission of layouts: Monday, December 31st, 2007 at Midnight EST (DSP Time) Draw will be held on Tuesday, January 1st, 2008: and be posted in this forum no later than Wednesday, January 2nd. We will PM the winners.

Winner of most points gets a DSP Gift Cert for one page kit. There will be a random draw from remainder of posters for another kit. There will be a posting bonus for anyone posting 5 or more layouts.

[Amber Gray]

These layouts are wonderful! I was asked during my chat what my featuerd kit was for the month and I hadn't gotten with formby yet so I wanted to let you all know that it is my new Autumn Treasures Kit (http://store.digitalscrapbookplace.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=7078).

[Amber Gray]

Oh and thanks Dawn for putting that list together!! That must have taken some time! I really appreciate it!

[Kassie's mommy]

I've got a GREAT idea for this one...now if I can only find the time!!!

[MarsOlson]

Does anyone know how many layouts we need to do for the bonus this time and if it is one or two we can earn?

[MarsOlson]

Amber please make a mini album with lots of pages. I seem to be all calendered out and I need a simple fast way to make lots of layouts. :D

[Cathiemarie]

Does anyone know how many layouts we need to do for the bonus this time and if it is one or two we can earn?


Hold that thought please Mars, I am trying to find an answer for you and I'll be back as soon as I have news.

[Amber Gray]

Hey you all! Sorry! From what I understand things are as they always are! I will have a posting bonus for those that do the 5 layouts and another posting bonus for those with 10. Previews will be coming soon!! Thanks! Oh and if you are looking for double duty - I'm the designer for the fandango this week too! The challenge ends this tonight - Friday the 14th at midnight but there is a posting bonus there too!! Check it out!

[MarsOlson]

thanks Amber.

[Whisper Pink]

Well...gosh, I don't think I can catch Mars...she is amazing of what she can put on a LO!!! But I am plugging away at my kits...I am up to 8 LO's!!!

[Victoria]

Good for you, getting the 8 LO's done. Yes, Mars is able to get lots of things on each LO and still make them look good.

[MarsOlson]

go for it whisper! since it looks like vic and dawn are only doing their bonus 10 I thought I would just do ten too but try to use all my amber kits on them. I only have a few left to use and one more layout for ten... unless we get the bonus kits before the end of the month then I will have to use those too. lol

[Kassie's mommy]

Finally finished my layout (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=230664&nocache=1) :tup: This is my first challenge and I see that I gotta step it up, everyone's got multiple LO's...Unfortunetely, I don't have many kits yet (just a newbie) but am I go shopping for Christmas!!!!

[MarsOlson]

I had to do 11 because I had a couple things left I hadn't used yet... and then I got some more bonuses so I had to do 12. Now unless we get the Featured bonus before the end of the month I think I am done. :)

[Dovedesign]

Question please.

I thought at one time we were allowed to use word art and quick clicks from other designers. Is this not allowed anymore?:confused:

[MarsOlson]

Dove you are correct. Here is the posted rule concerning wordart and quickclicks:
Featured Designer Challenge by Cathie and Formby (the Luvaducks)
. . .No products from other designers with the exception of Word Art and Calendar Stamps. Quick Clicks will be allowed from other designers, if featured designer has fewer than 5 quick clicks in the store. Don't count points for Word Art and Quick Clicks if not from featured designer. . .

[FormbyGirl]

That's right - quick clicks and word art from other designers are permitted.

Imagine, though, when Tina is featured and you CAN count the points for word art. EEEK. I see the point count going through the roof :)

[MarsOlson]

Bee! you are buzzing again. hmm any hint when Tina will be the featured designer? :D

[Amber Gray]

I don't think you all will have to wait too long!

[Amber Gray]

I'm working on hopefully getting all the posting bonus stuff done today - thank you so much for being patient - the holidays are such an incredibly busy time!! Now that we are finally settling down I'll be getting that completed!
