Pick Your Prize Guidelines

[mrs2a50]

Our popular Pick Your Prize giveaways are back! Each one of our designers is giving away one of their products to a lucky winner and the winner gets to choose what that prize will be!

To play along, all you need to do is look through the designer's store and choose one product that you would love to win. Then post in the thread and tell us what it is. If you can show the product image and link to the product, that would be great, but it is not required. You can post in as many designers threads as you want, but only one time per designer. At the end of DSD weekend, one lucky poster in each designer's thread will be selected to win their prize!

Here are the rules for these giveaways:

1. Pick one product only per designer thread.
2. Collaborations, some bundles and CU products are excluded - please make sure you're picking prizes that are part of the giveaway.
3. Products must be chosen before Saturday, October 5, at 11PM EST.

If you need help with posting and linking images, check out THIS THREAD.

Good luck everyone and have fun picking your prize!

A question that might help someone else as well... as I scroll through the designer threads, I have noticed that some indicate no bundles, yet people are posting collections. I know a collab is a product with two or more designers contributing. What is the difference between a bundle and a collection? My thoughts were that they were the same thing, yet I have seen at least one store that has a category called Bundles & Collections. If the designer has specified no bundles would that also indicate no collection either?

hey Madge, I think some designers use both names for the same product. I used to use 'bundle' BUT, I now tend to use 'collection' more often if it is a 'bundle' of coordinating packs. For instance, the latest BYOC, that was the one for September, all packs that I made for the 'Sophia' theme are bundled in the 'Sophia' collection.
Whereas a bundle to me is more like something that could contain packs that aren't necessarily coordinated in color or theme. For instance. A bundle with different photo masks from different collections. A bundle with solid papers from different collections.
Does that make sense to you @Madge ?

I think for your question, no bundles will also mean no collections, in this case.

Thank you, Anja... that is what I thought. And by the way, your Sophia collection is absolutely gorgeous! I love the libraries, and the solids remind me of big leather armchairs!

That is so sweet of you! And you are not alone, so it seems ♥

In Sahlin Studio's thread, I see a lot of Project Mouse.
Are these not considered as a collaboration between Sahlin Studio & Brittish Design? Or is this an exception?

You are correct. These are collaborations. I am unable to monitor all of the threads; its up to the community to read the guidelines and choose accordingly.

Bundles and collections are the same thing; it's a multi-pack of several products combined into one large product. As nini mentioned, designers use either description.
