BLOG CHALLENGE | MAY

Hello! Welcome to the May blog challenge! But first let's have a look at the winner of the template challenge from April where you all used Gaelle's template. If you want to have a look at all the awesome entries, you can find them HERE.


 

The lucky winner for this month is Patsy!!!

Congratulations Patsy aka Flowersgal!!! You have a notification on your TLP account.
All other participants also received their 25% discount coupons via their Lilypad accounts. Please make sure you check your messages everyone and if your coupon didn't come through send an e-mail to pinkreptiledesigns at gmail dot com!

Here's Patsy's awesome page: 


 

Now on to the challenge:

Today I want to shake things up a little. I remember that many years ago RAKs were very popular and I always loved creating a page for someone else - and of course receiving a page from someone else.

So I thought that this month we could bring this tradition back to life.  There are no other rules to follow, you can scrap with whatever pink reptile products and in whatever style you like, as long as the photo is not yours, but one that belongs to a fellow scrapper.

Please go to the TLP forum thread
and comment that you want to play along and then get in contact with the poster above you via PM (for the first commenter that would be me). She will then send you one picture or more and you scrap a page with it/them and post it in the gallery and in the challenge thread (Please make sure to mention then that you are not playing any longer). For the last person to comment I will make the page (without participating in the prize drawing, of course).

Remember: Even though this month you need to show off your projects in the TLP thread, you will also need to add your gallery page link to the Blog Comments so we know you are participating for the chance to win the $10 coupon, which will go to one lucky winner! All other participants receive a coupon for 25% off the PRD store.

Now, have fun and let's see your RAK pages!

Some of our team members made pages for each other. See them here for INSPIRATION:


 

So, here's a page Pink Lady Ferdy made with one of the photos Marijke sent her. "I did a more "artsy" page, to showcase the lighthouse...I hope she likes it!!" syas Fe.


Marijke really loved the page and in return she made this page for Ferdy

And Fe loves the way Marijke used the photo strips, so cool! 

Then Amanda made a page for Esther


And Esther made one for Amanda


Now it's your turn! Please go to the TLP forum thread and comment that you want to play along and then get in contact with the poster above you via PM (for the first commenter that would be Rikki who posted the challenge in the forum)

Make sure you use at least 75% of Pink Reptile Design products on your page. 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 the next challenge goes live on June 15th.

ONE favorite page will be chosen as the winner to receive a 10 dollar coupon to the PRD store, but really everyone is a winner, as all other participants receive a 25% discount coupon to the Pink Reptile Designs TLP store. So all the more reason to join in on the fun, right?!

Wishing you tons of fun and Happy Scrappin'!

  5. Here's the layout I created using BevG's photo. I found it challenging (in a good way) to scrap a photo with limited context.

    1. Sharon I love the page you made! So much fun stuff in there!!! Unfortunatley I can't allow it for the challenge because there's no Pink Reptile products in there.Maybe you can change a few things? There's still time to meet the 75% requirement :)
