Here are some additional details: The Twist can be many things: extra time, ability to delete/change an instruction, etc. I will post the instructions at the top of the thread and at the end of thread at the start of the MIS.

For the first part of a Make It Slowly, you will have until 7:00 am ET the next day (12 hours) to complete the layout using the instructions (quantity will vary) plus the Twist (to get the Twist just comment in this thread before the start of the challenge; unless specified the comment can be anything - "Hi!" works). All those that complete the layout per instructions and post by 7:00 am ET next day (12 hours) will qualify; one layout from the qualifying layouts will win $10 to Liz's store.

For the second part, same instructions but you will have 24 hrs to complete the layout and post in this thread. all participants that complete a qualifying layout in the first or second half, will receive the free template. If you are new to posting layouts at TLP, please give yourself extra time to do so. If you have trouble posting in the TLP Gallery or your layout doesn't meet Gallery criteria, you can post your layout in the Scrapping with Liz Facebook Group by the deadline to qualify; just make sure to comment and link to your post in Facebook before time is called.
