Happy July everyone! It’s Polly Karen here bringing you a glimpse at the seven new challenges just posted to the forum yesterday for the month of July. As always there are great coupon rewards to be earned towards your next shopping spree in The Lilypad Store (2 challenges = 10%, 4 challenges = 20% and 6 challenges = 30%) and if you complete all 7 challenges within the month of July, you will be entered in a drawing to win one of two guest spots on the creative team! Those are prizes worth playing for! So, here is a peek at each of this month’s challenges.
1. Product Challenge – Amanda (gracielou) is hosting this month’s Product Challenge and she has chosen Journal Cards as the product to play with this month. Her sample page proves that journal cards are not just for project life type pages:
2. Template Challenge – Amy Martin has generously supplied another fabulous template for this month’s template challenge. You can find that in the Store by clicking the picture below. Dana, this month’s template challenge host, has created a gorgeous sample page below:
3. Scraplift Challenge – Amanda (MandaKay) is hosting this month’s Scraplift Challenge. She has chosen pagefrock’s gallery for you to lift a page from.
