Its Challenge Time!

Hello, SuzyQ fans! QT Joy here to bring you your dose of Monday challenge. And I made it easy for you, its a template one! :D

I made this from this page of mine using Suzy's Spring Rebirth kit.



So, here it is, just click on the image or on the download link provided to get it.



**SORRY, LINK EXPIRED!**

Just use the template, flip it, lift, use it as an inspiration/guide. You don't have to use Suzy's products to enter this challenge, but then, why not? LOL! Just post the link to your LO in the comment section. You have until May 31st, 9PM, EST to submit your pages. Winner will get a $5 coupon to Suzy's store.

So, go now! Happy Scrapping!

Not Forgotten and TWO FREEBIES!

A new mini kit from me this week:







I didn't give my QT's much time to work with this one, but they managed to create a few LO's to inspire you!

From Susan:


From Nancy:




You can pick up this mini kit during my moving sale for LESS THAN $2!!!

Now for some big news. Obviously, since I'm having a moving sale, that means I'm moving to a new store. I'll be leaving Enchanted Studio Scraps at the end of June because I've been invited to design at a new store, and I am THRILLED and super, super EXCITED:



If you facebook, make sure to join our group. And we're also on Twitter!

Time for some freebies! I asked Bethany (from Elegant Wordart by Bethany) if she'd like to do some freebie wordart with this kit. And wow! She did awesome! You can grab one of them here, and the other on her blog.

Here's what you can get on my blog:

May Scrap Mix Challenge!

Hey everyone! QT bre here with this weeks challenge! This challenge is inspired by a challenge over at Cat Scrap. It's called Scrap Mix and is a lot of fun with this one. I hope you all will have fun too. It may seem tricky at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's pretty simple. We've played it before, but I've changed things up a bit. Here's how it works!

Instructions
There are 4 categories: Element, Main Color, Main Paper, and Inspiration (based on someone you know!)

To figure out what your main elemet should be, take the day you were born, add up the digits until you have a single digit. For example, if I was born on the 29th day, I would do this: 2+9=11, then 1+1=2. My main elements are buttons. I was actually born on the 2nd day, so I should use buttons somewhere on my LO.

To determine the main color, take the number of the month you were born. I was born in the 7th month, so my main color is purple! If you were born in the 10, 11, or 12 month, you add the digits until you get a single digit (ex. the 11th month would be 1+1=2, so black is your main color.)

To find out the main paper you should use, you add the digits of the year you were born. Example: 1986, 1+9+8+6=24, 2+4=6, my main paper should be plaid.

Category 4 is your age and will determine what you should use as your inspiration. We all have many different people in our lives, so you should use that as inspiration. If the number you should use does not WORK for you, go ahead and pick on that does. To determine which person is your inspiration, take your age, add it until you get a single digit, and have fun. I am 22, so 2+2=4. My LO should be about one of my parents.

Here are the categories! (My computer had a meltdown, so I am without photoshop! :( I won't bore you with the details, lol, but hopefully this will work the same!)

Day of Birth: (Main Element)
1 - Frame
2 - Button
3 - Ribbon
4 - Stitching
5 - Flower
6 - Date Element
7 - Photo mask
8 - Glitter
9 - Swirls

Month of Birth: (Main Color)
1 - Yellow
2 - Black
3 - Blue
4 - Pink
5 - Green
6 - Grey
7 - Purple
8 - Orange
9 - YOUR CHOICE!

Year of Birth: (Main Paper)
1 - Dark
2 - Light
3 - YOUR CHOICE!
4 - Dots
5 - Stripes
6 - Plaid
7 - Any Pattern
8 - Any Solid
9 - Grunge

Your Age: (Inspiration - person)
1 - A Good Friend
2 - A Sibling
3 - A Hero
4 - A Parent
5 - A Grandparent
6 - A Child (yours, or someone else's)
7 - Any relative
8 - YOUR CHOICE!
9 - Your significant other

Since I am without photoshop (and I forgot until Sunday that it was my turn to do the challenge...shh...don't tell Suzy!) I don't have a LO. But hopefully one of the other CT members will put together a LO for you to see!


**ETA**As Joy said, 'Your wish is my command.' What a sweetheart. She totally got this done and way fast...Thanks dear!! Here is her LO using the birthday 9/23/1974. Here main Element (using the 23rd day, 2+3=5) is a FLOWER. Main color (using the 9th month) is one of HER CHOICE. Main paper (using the year 1974, 1+9+7+4=21, 2+1=3) is one of HER CHOICE! (lucky gal, right? lol). And her inspiration (from the age 34, 3+4=7) ANY RELATIVE! Wow, those numbers really worked for her! :) Here is her fab LO. Thanks JOY! Have fun everyone!

Post the link to your LO as a comment so we can see your creations. Any questions, PLEASE ASK! Thanks for stopping by! :) Winner will receive a $5 GC to SuzyQs store!! Get those LOs done! Have fun and be creative with this challenge!

IT'S CHALLENGE TIME !!

Hi there SuzyQ fans! QT Nancy here and this is my first challenge here at Suzy's Blog so I hope I do it right!! So, this is my challenge for you all this week. Now I love cluster layouts with lots of white space. Do you know what they are? That's when you cleverly crowd everything into one corner of your layout and add LOTS of elements and layers.

I have included an example of one I did. I used one of Suzy's newest kits called NATUREWALK

You can see this pretty kit here:
http://www.enchantedstudioscraps.com/xcart/product.php?productid=851&cat=0&page=1





I love all the flowers and foliage in this kit and the colors are so perfect for those spring and summer layouts!!!



Now be sure to provide a link back here in your comments so we can all see your masterpiece!!, If you do then you have a chance of winning a $5 gift certificate to Suzy's store! SuzyQ products do not have to be used to enter, but how can you resist those yummy kits she has to offer!!!! And don't forget to look for freebies right here on her blog!!!

This challenge ends on May 10th, 9pm EST. Now off with you, and get scrapping!!!

QT out!

Sweet Tooth, NSD, and a FREEBIE!

Let the NSD celebrations begin!!! WOOT! I cannot believe that it is MAY 1ST already--where is this year going?

Anyway, first up: I'm hosting a CHAT at DigiScrapAddicts on Saturday at 5:30 pm Central (that would be 4:30 pm for Mountain time zoners like me and 6:30 pm for Eastern). And of course, there will be giveaways (and I might even give away the entire Capture Life collection to one lucky person!) so make sure you stop by. I don't want to be all alone in that chat room. :)

New release this week--I teamed up with Yvonne of Vonnie's Digiworld, and we had so much fun creating this kit:
