NOVEMBER BLOG CHALLENGE

Can you believe it? It's the 15th again, which means it's time for a new challenge on the Pink Reptile blog!

Before I get to the November challenge, I'd like to thank everyone who participated in the previous challenge[s]. The feeling I get when I see your beautiful pages come in is indescribable! A big thank you to my friend and Pink Lady, Anne of the Alamo, who provided the beautiful template for the challenge!

As always you can find all the challenge entry pages on my Facebook page. The one's for October are right here if you want to have a look. Believe me, it's more than worth a peek!

I hope you had fun last month and that you'll give it another go! If you haven't tried before, then by all means give it a shot now! The more the merrier and you never know what might happen if there's SO many entries that ONE first price seems like too little.

I let my friend Mr. Random do the honors of picking a winner again. So let's find out who won the 10 dollar coupon and let's see what's up for this month!

Oh and before I forget... I excluded Anja from the list because she recently joined the Pink Ladies and is part of my team now and I also excluded MlleTerramoka because she started a guest spot. I just thought it wouldn't be fair to include them in the draw!



Drum roll please…… The winner of the October challenge, as selected by Mr. Random is:


***** Marion *****
Here's her beautiful layout:

Congratulations Marion!! I have sent you a PM via your FB account.

All other participants received their 25% discount coupons also via their TLP gallery or Facebook accounts. So please make sure you check your messages! The only one I could NOT sent a coupon to is Carolyn. Alas I cannot pm you via Pinterest and I could not find you in the TLP gallery. Can you please send me an e-mail at pinkreptiledesigns at gmail dot com so I can give you your coupon? Thanks!


For the November Blog Challenge, Meg of 'Our Misadventures', has given us not 1 but 2 templates in .PSD and .TIFF format, seperate .PNG's and even Storybook Creator files are included! Hurray for Meg! Thanks SO much for sponsoring our challenge!
CHALLENGE REQUIREMENTS
The challenge this month is THEME related. Meg's templates are titled 'Disappearing Act' and since we are so close to the end of the year, I thought it would be fun to sum up 2013. So for the challenge, you will need to make 1] a layout of this past year 2] with ONE of the templates provided, and 3] use at least 75% of Pink Reptile Design products
And here are the templates. Download includes both.

IDEAS
Some ideas to get the juices flowing on the theme might be:
the highlights, the lowlights, reflection on the year as a whole, scrapping about how time has flown, the most important thing that happened this year, the best songs of 2013, the best books....whatever you choose to do, it just needs to reflect on 2013.
I love to look back over the year and see what I have accomplished – what I may have crossed off my ‘Bucket List’, and to just reflect. You will be amazed at what you will discover! With the wonderful templates provided, I know you will just love this challenge! No excuses not to participate!!

Once completed, just upload your page to one or all of your galleries and post a link to your layout in the comments section of this post before December 15 [just click on the time right under this post and you'll be able to leave a comment].

COUPON
Do you love these templates by Our Misadventures and are you curious to see more? Then by all means visit Meg's store at Mscraps or her guest store at Oscraps and take this coupon with you! I think it will come in VERY handy ;)


FACEBOOK
Off course there's always a little something for free under the Free Gift Tab at the Pink Reptile FB page too!


The winner will receive a 10 dollar coupon to my store. Everyone else will receive a 25% off coupon code for participating!

Here are a few samples made by the Pink Ladies for inspiration. I cannot wait to see all of your entries! Good luck to all!
