Chris is that a typo, or is this a 2 week challenge?

[JenniferG]

Such a beautiful layout! I would love to comment on your picture! Is there anyway you could add it to the gallery? There is a tutorial for doing this here (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/university/tutorials/general_uploadGallery_ep/general_uploadGallery_ep.shtml). It is not hard. You can ask anyone around here for help if you need it.

Hi Christine,

Rookie Question Alert!

First....THANKS SO MUCH for the bonus! Love it! :)

Second, when I download the bonus and unzip it, will it have pages, elements of the ORIGINAL kit? I ask because for some reason when I unzipped it to my "Christine Gunderson" folder, I now have TWO of the original kit items.

Thanks! :)

OK it shouldn't have anything except the 2nd kit in there. You just downloaded from the link I gave you in the PM, right? Did you change the name? Which version did you get? the 200 or 300? I am going to download with the links from the PM and try to see if I get the same thing. and pssssst just in case you try to search for my name for some reason, it is sEN in Gundersen, not sOn. :D

[Christine]

oh I maybe know what you mean, are you talking about the items from the starter pack? I give out 4 pieces of the posting bonus, as a starter pack. Where basically you are getting part of the posting bonus early, then if you do the challenge, you get the whole posting bonus. I downloaded them and only have the 2nd kit. Does this make sense? So you buy the 1st kit, can get the starter pack early if you choose to, do the layout, then get the posting bonus, which includes the starter pack and 8 more items. I hope that all makes sense. Let me know if you are still confused.

[JenniferG]

Lotus Blossom was just added to the store Chris...and just snatched up by me! LOL!

I think I understand. Hmm. I'll have to search my folders and see what went down. Perhaps it's just a matter of deleting duplicate files. :)

And I'm SO SORRY about the misspelling of your last name! I'm a stickler for spelling of names so I do my best to get them correct. I'm VERY thankful that you corrected me. :)

Not a problem, we get it alllllllll the time. Even when I spell it out to people putting heavy emphasis on the E, they still write an O. :lol: The problem comes in when you try to type for a search, computers don't know that the O should really be an E. :D

I am having so much trouble posting this layout! I had to edit twice because 1. I forgot to save final layer where I roatated photo so she's facing into page, then 2. I forgot to rotate the tulip and it was coming out of her arm. Holy Moley we can't have that! Hope i got it right this time. Maybe I should crawl back in bed and sleep rest of day. Nope, have a b-day party and someone would be very upset if Mama wasn't there. Life calls, fortunately so I will just get ready and go. Oh, yea, here is my try this time http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=307778
