Contest and a Project 365 FREEBIE!

I'm hosting a game over at DST in the sponsor's thread. Wanna play? You could win a $15 GC to my store. (And EVERYONE who participates will get a gift from me.) Just click on the image!



Woot! I made it to Round 2 of SYTYCD. Our challenge this week was to create a Project 365 kit. Since I'll be releasing a new collection soon, I thought I'd give you a taste of what's coming. You can grab Life's Journey: Reality Check at DSA:







Thanks so much for stopping by! If you create any LO's using this kit, please upload them to this gallery at DSA for your chance to win--and send me a link, cause I'd love to see your LO's.

If you haven't signed up for my newsletter yet, you're missing out--so click on the link over there to your right and sign up!

It's Monday & it's challenge Time!

Hi, everyone--just snagging Joy's post for a sec to post about this freebie:

This is my entry for week 2 of Capture the Flag over at Funky Playground Designs. ***DOWNLOAD EXPIRED*** Wish me luck!

Back to Joy, with this week's challenge!

Howdy SuzyQ fans! QT Joy here to bring you my first ever challenge. And we will call this challenge "Choose Older, Make-over!". Think my title is witty enough? LOL!

What do you have to do for this challenge? Choose one of your earlier LO's/pages, and do a make-over, as simple as that. But you have to follow these 2 rules:

1) Use the same picture/pictures. You cannot add, nor remove/delete. E.g. If your 'original' page has 3 pics, your make-over one should also have the same pics.

2) Use the same Title.

Other than these rules, you can do anything to 'beautify' your make-over page. Also, you have to provide a link/or include an image in your description, to the original layout/page, so we could see the difference.

And to make it more clear, here is my sample:

This is one of the first pages I did, while I was still grasping the idea of digital scrapbooking.. (And please, don't laugh, because it really is cringe-worthy!LOL!)

I don't even know how to add a drop-shadow on my own!! And that title image was something I got from a blinkie/glitter site! LOL!

And, here it is, after a major make-over..

It is a much better version, don't you think? I used SuzyQ's Mad Scientist kit for this page. This kit is one of my favorite SuzyQ creations, since the colors and elements are very versatile, and can be used for boy or girl pages..

Sooo, start choosing that older page, make-over that old layout, make it look more amazing! And link us up to your pages here in the comment section, and who knows, you might be one of our lucky winner of a $5 gift certificate to Suzy's store! And you don't have to use SuzyQ products to enter/join, but she has lots of lovely kits that you could choose from, and also freebies which you can find here on the blog, so why not? ;)

This challenge ends on April 19th, 9pm EST. Go now, choose & scrap!! :)

QT out!

So Who Wants Chocolate?

Suzy, here, hijacking Ellie's post just to make a little announcement. ;) I was interviewed by Jen over at Ginger Scraps' blog. You can check it out here.

Back to you, Ellie, with "So Who Wants Chocolate?"

I know I do - 24/7 lol! But this time I'm talking about virtual chocolate in the new kit by SuzyQ Scraps called 'Gimme Chocolate'.

This awesome kit will be released tomorrow, but you have the chance to win it before it's released! Just check out this thread at DigiScrapAddicts (there's more previews of the kit there too ;)
So come back tomorrow for news of a sale on this kit AND a freebie!
Have fun scrapping,
Ellie

Know any lil' monsters?

I've got a super cute new kit coming out on Friday. Want a chance to win it before you can buy it? Just post a comment and you'll be entered into a random drawing.



And for even more chances to win, go find this contest at DigiShopTalk, Enchanted Studio Scraps, and Just Digi Layouts!

RAWR!

I'll be releasing a new kit on Friday and I am soooo excited about it. The peek this week is a little bit different:



I'm having a little contest. You can enter once, either here at ESS or here at DST.

How well do you know your dinos? We're going to find out. There are 7 baby dinosaurs in the image above, each with a number by it. Identify as many of the 7 dinosaurs as you can (no, Tyrannosaurus Rex is not one of them). Post your NUMBERED answers in one of the contest threads (see above). The contest will run for 24 hours. The first person to reply with all the correct answers will win this kit. There will also be prizes for 2nd and 3rd runner up. (If in the event no one answers all 7 correctly in 24 hours, the person with the most correct answers will win.)

Good luck!

Capture Life! (SUPER DEAL!) and a little contest (or two!)

Here it is, Capture Life: The Collection:



You can get this ENTIRE collection (that's over 700 MB with 8 alphas!) for only $9.99! That's 70% OFF!!! But hurry--this deal is only good until Feb 16th. (Image is linked to my store.)

You can also purchase each set separately:













Yummy eye candy, huh? If you're doing Project 365, this kit is tailored to your needs. If you're not, the color palette is so versatile you can use with so many pictures for so many LO's. And at $9.99, it's a STEAL.

I mean, I'm practically giving it away at that price. So why not give away? That's right--you heard me. I'm giving away not one but TWO of these ENTIRE collections! Go to this thread here at ESS for one chance to win, and then hop on over to this thread here at DST for another chance. Believe me, you don't want to miss out on this!

Remember, this SUPER DEAL is only good until Feb. 12th. After that, you will ONLY be able to purchase this baby in sets.

Oh, and if you came here looking for the freebie--scroll down to the next post.

Wanna win one of my new Crumple-bets?
