Hello everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Digital Scrapbooking Day this weekend. This is Polly Karen here bringing you a quick overview of the new monthly challenges that were just posted to the forum on the 1st of the month. Based on our percentage system, you can earn three levels of coupons for the store just by participating in our challenges. In addition to the coupon, if you complete all 7 challenges within the month of November, you will be entered in a drawing to win a one month guest spot on the Lilypad Creative Team! This month we are once again offering TWO guest spots. The discounts available are as follows: 2 challenges = 10% off, 4 challenges = 20% off and 6 challenges = 30% off. Now let’s take a look at the new challenges:
1. Journaling Challenge – Dana is hosting this month’s Journaling challenge and wants to see your layout with journaling about the things (or people) that you “need” in your day to day life. Dana journaled about the things her family needs to do when they visit Harry Potter World:
