September Challenges

September 1, 2021 by The Lilypad Leave a Comment


Hello everyone!  It’s Polly Karen back again to give you a quick overview of all the new challenges for September.  Each month we have 8 brand new challenges that are posted in the forum Challenge Pad on the 1st day of the month. (the BYOC Challenge is posted on the 1st Friday of the month.)  You can use the challenges simply to inspire you to keep creating new layouts OR you can also earn yourself a fabulous coupon for your next shopping trip in the Lilypad Store.  (2 challenges = 10%, 4 challenges = 20% and 6 challenges = 30%).  Those who complete at least 7 challenges will be entered in a drawing for a $50 gift certificate!  Isn’t that an awesome prize?!?!  You’ll get lots of great memories captured in your scrapbooks AND you could win a fat gift certificate prize!!!  Pretty great, right?!  So let’s take a look at this month’s new batch of challenges!


1.  Scraplift Challenge – The first challenge for the month of September is the Scraplift Challenge and is being hosted by Christa (cfile).  Christa has selected our two guest Pollys for the months of August and September for you to scraplift.   Your challenge is to pick just one layout in either Cheryl’s (Cherylndesigns) or Hanna’s (Vrilinkie) gallery and then create your own scraplifted version.   Here is a layout that Christa chose followed by her scraplifted version:

2.  Style Challenge – The Style Challenge for this month is being hosted by Stefanie (Eyeore) and she would like to challenge you to create a layout with at least 4 squares or rectangles in a grid design.  Here’s a great sample layout created by Stefanie:

 

3.  Random Challenge –  The next challenge for this month is the Random Challenge hosted by Lori (lcpereyra).  Lori is challenging you to create a layout using a minimum of 4 different patterned papers AND she wants to further challenge you not to use ANY solid papers anywhere on your page!   Here is a gorgeous example layout created by Lori:

 

 

4.  Template Challenge – Next up is the Template Challenge hosted by Natasha (bcnatty).  The challenge is to use the free template supplied by Sara Gleason and create a layout using it.  Here’s a look at the free template followed by a sample that Natasha created using it:

 

 

5.  Inspiration Challenge – The Inspiration Challenge for September has a definitely autumn vibe to it.  Courtney (bestcee) is hosting this challenge and created a Mood Board for your inspiration.  She would like you to pick 3 things from this board that inspire you and incorporate those things into your layout.  Here’s a look at the mood board and a sample layout from Courtney:

 

6.  Photography Challenge – Ashely (ashleywb) is hosting this month’s Photography Challenge.   Ashley created a list of “national days” that are celebrated in the month of September.  See the forum for the full list HERE.    Simply pick one of those days and capture a photograph that depicts that day and then create a layout using your photo.  Here’s a layout that Ashley created for September 5th, International Day of Charity:

 

7.  Journaling Challenge – The Journaling Challenge for September, hosted by Jenn (jk703), is to journal about something fun or chaotic that is happening in a photo.  This would be an opportunity to tell more about a moment that maybe wouldn’t be obvious just looking at your photo.  Here’s a super fun layout Jenn created to tell the story about a group of teen boys trying to catch frogs:

 

 

8.  BYOC Challenge – Finally we have the BYOC Challenge.  This challenge will be hosted and posted by Heather (HeatherB) on Friday, September 3rd when the BYOC Collection for September will be released in the store.  The challenge will be to use 90% of the products on your page from this month’s BYOC collection and from at least 3 designers.
