This month, all of our monthly challenges are in tribute to our own Dawn Inskip, who was taken from us much too soon. As you take a look through her store and her gallery, you can see how truly gifted she was. I did not know her personally as some other lucky scrappers did, but her love of nature and especially her family shines through her products and her pages. This month's random challenge is to use Dawn's products on a page. Your layout can be on any subject, in any style, but you have to use at least 75% of Dawn's beautiful designs on your page. Do not fret if you don't currently own any of Dawn's wonderful kits!! Laura has generously provided you with a little freebie from Dawn, herself. You do not have to use this kit, but we wanted everyone to be able to partake in this challenge! Here is my layout using her Wonders Of The Sea Bundle For this Random Challenge, you have to use 75% of Dawn Inskip's products on your page. As always, don't forget our monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the AUGUST Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and of course to this thread too. The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month: 2 challenges = 10% off 4 challenges = 20% off 6 challenges = 30% off If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges). I can't wait to see the beautiful pages showcasing Dawn's incredible talent this month!! ~Natasha
How wonderful that we are going to honor Dawn all month long. Thanks to Laura for the generous freebie. @bcnatty - your page isn't showing up. I'll come back and admire it later on.
Here is my layout. I wanted to try something different from what I usually do.. This wonderful freebie helped a lot ♥
