***Special Bonus Challenge – Collect A Kit***

Week 2 – April 13 to April 19 - Lucky Dip

See here for more info on new Lucky Dips Challenges (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37858)

A number of you have asked about receiving the kit or part kit, for clarification and to make it less bitty I will be sending out the complete kit or parts of the kit (depending on your participation in the weekly challenges) at the end of each month. (I thought this would be the easiest way as receiving a part kit each week may become a bit "bitty" if you know what I mean with odd contact sheets and multiple TOU etc. So I will keep the kit or part kit and just send out at the end of the month. Anyway, I'm open to negotiation on this if you want a specific element/background for any reason earlier. :D

Special bonus challenge week – in other words I’m nominating one of my products for you to use or if you don’t want to get the bonus you can use any DSP product.

The nominated product to use this week is the Autum Splendor Kit and/or Add On Pack - scroll down for instructions.

Here is the 2nd instalment of the free Kit to win when you enter all 4 weekly Lucky Dip challenges using the nominated products. ( I will allow a small amount of other DSP product in your LO creation.)

Part 2 Kit Preview - Garden Wishes Kit - Items added for week 2 are:
Pink floral BG
Aged silver filigree frame
Hanging floral spray

http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/data/744/72_K_GardenWIshesWk2.jpg

This week’s random theme is: Simon Says create a layout in this style…

What this means is that we will create a layout using the following style and conditions:


White Space Style (Where the LO design has a large amount of blank/clear area that doesn’t have any photo/element in it)



2 Photos (with NO humans in it)


If you’re not sure what white space looks like, check out these two DET LO:
Mars (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/showphoto.php?photo=312154) and Jeanet (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/forum/../gallery/showphoto.php?photo=310194)

Upload your LO to Erica’s Lucky Dips Gallery or if it’s doing extra duty somewhere else I will need a link to your LO in this forum.

If anything is not clear please just ask any questions here :)

I'm looking forward to seeing your layouts for this weeks challenge and I hope you enjoy playing along.

Some really simple rules:


Please use only my products if wanting the bonus or only DSP products if not
NO Ploppers or Quick Clicks for this weeks challenge
Journaling or themed title would be nice but you don’t have to
Your LO can do double/triple duty as long as you put a link in this forum, especially if you intend to do all four challenges. How will I know to include you in the draw otherwise
Please comment generously on other member’s layouts in this challenge. I know I don’t really need to ask you that because you’re all so good at it anyway.


Have fun with this challenge...

Ah, goodie-- kits I already have in my stash! I'm guessing I can use both?

But no people in the photos, and two photos. . . hmmm, that might be a bit more challenging!

Erica

woohoo awesome challenge Erica by the way do we just get the whole kit at the end if we have done all 4 challenges or are you sending out the parts as we go along as I didnt get the first part of the kit yet

Good question Caro :tup: - I thought what would be the easiest way to work this and I think sending out the complete or part kit at the end of the month is probably best, receiving a part kit each week may become a bit "bitty" if you know what I mean with odd contact sheets and multiple TOU etc. So I will keep the kit or part kit and just send out at the end of the month. Anyway, I'm open to negotiation on this if you want a specific element/background for any reason earlier. :)

I am happy to wait till the end of the month as I agree I would end up losing a part of it and have it in 4 separate folders

I have a question... do we get the partial kit pieces for each week or do we get them all at the end if we do every week? I didn't get one for the first week which is why I am asking but either way is fine... just hope I can keep up with every week.

Here's is what I told Caro, I'll also put this in the original thread - thanks Mars.

If you are using other DSP products - yes you can. If you are using the nominated kit/aop, there are no groupies in these but you can make your own :D

Hi Mars - please see my reply to Caro's question asking the same thing.

um maybe this is a dumb question... but if i am making a "white space" page, can the journalling take up the majority of the white space? or can there be NOTHING whatsoever in there?

this will be hard for me i think i dont really do pics without ppl in!

You can use journaling to very good effect in a white space style LO, take a look at these two by Sharon (shazzt) for inspiration. December In New Zealand (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=231109&ppuser=1660) and Together (http://www.digitalscrapbookplace.com/gallery/showphoto.php?photo=184712&ppuser=1660)

Hope this helps :)
