Hello everyone! Polly Karen here, bringing you the monthly Challenge Spotlight post for April. Once a month I have the privilege of looking through the challenge galleries to find just a few of my favorite layouts and shine my spotlight on them here.
If you aren’t familiar with the challenges, here’s a little information about them to get you started. Starting in February of 2016, we now offer 8 monthly challenges in the forum. If you play along with these challenges you can earn yourself a coupon to use on your next Lilypad shopping spree. You will earn as follows: 2 challenges = 10% off, 4 challenges = 20% off and 6 challenges = 30% off. Also, if you finish at least 7 challenges, in addition to your coupon, you will be entered in a drawing for a chance to win a guest spot on the Creative Team (be a Polly) for a month! Now let’s look at some of the standout pages created for this month’s challenges:
1. Style Challenge – Clean and Simple Style:

Another fabulous batch of layouts plucked from the many more in the challenge galleries. I so enjoy looking through everyone’s pages and getting to pick out just a few to show off here on the blog. It’s never easy to only pick 2 pages per challenge, that’s for sure! If you loved looking through these layouts as much as I did, please take a minute and click on them and leave these artists a little love. All images are linked. Also, this is your reminder that April 30th is the last day to complete these challenges yourself and earn a discount coupon and possibly even a guest spot on the Creative Team! If you’ve finished all of these challenge you could also check out the month Project Parade challenge too. For April we are focusing on flowers. I’ll be back next week to show you a whole new batch of challenges for May.
