Easy-As-Pie Template Challenge {29}

Thursday, November 1, 2012

Hi all! :o)  Kylie here with our latest TEMPLATE CHALLENGE!  Can you believe it?? – we are just about to start our TWENTY-NINTH challenge!!  Time flies, huh?!…especially when we’re all having so much fun scrapping template after template challenge!  I hope you join us for this new challenge…lots of fun circles with this one!  LOVE circles!!

To download…CLICK HERE (or just click on the preview image below)!

Now, let’s go over the GUIDELINES for our template challenges here at the Shoppe?!  Then be sure to keep on scrolling for a whole bunch of fantastic inspiration from our super-talented Shabby Artists!

The ‘deadline’ for this challenge is DECEMBER 2nd :o)  We will announce the template challenge winner on December 6th, when we share Template Challenge THIRTY.  As you probably know, we announce the winner on the same day we debut a new template challenge.  The ‘winner’ of the challenge will receive a $25 gift card to the Shabby Shoppe!  Please note that for our template challenges…we select the ‘winner’ randomly (via random.org) – so everyone has a chance to win…beginners and experienced scrappers!  It’s a great way to jump in and give digi scrapping (and templates) a try :o)

In order to be entered into the template challenge – you must post your layout in the Shabby Shoppe’s gallery (in the SHOPPE BLOG CHALLENGES gallery) and then post a comment HERE at our blog (on this post only) with a link to your layout in our gallery.  This will enter you into the challenge :o)  Please keep in mind that all layouts must contain at least 75% SP product (purchased or free).  To be eligible for the challenge – you must scrap with the easy-as-pie layered template!

We also have several fun ways for you to obtain ‘EXTRA’ entries to the challenge (please note that in order to qualify for any EXTRA entries – you must first complete a layout with our easy-as-pie template and submit that to our gallery and blog) :o)

• For an extra entry, leave a SEPARATE comment letting us know that you have one of our blinkies (available by clicking on the blinkies link in the sidebar) either on your blog or in all of your forum signatures (be sure to include a link to your blog or signature in your post).
• For an extra entry, leave a SEPARATE comment letting us know that you have facebooked or twittered about our template challenge (don’t forget to include the link in your post).
• For an extra entry, leave a SEPARATE comment letting us know that you have blogged about our template challenge (again, be sure to add your blog link to your post).

So, that means that you have the possibility of entering the challenge up to 4 times! Just be sure each entry is a separate comment, as we will be using a random number generator to choose the winner.  Be sure to get your entries in by MIDNIGHT (eastern time) on Decmeber 2nd, and again…the winner will be announced in early December (the 6th to be exact)!

I need to add that our blog SPAM protection has been extremely vigilant the last few months.  If you do happen to add a comment and don’t see it straight away it has unfortunately been directed to our spam queue, awaiting approval.  I check this queue daily, SO DON’T WORRY, I will catch it and add it back to this post so everyone can see it, and more importantly so that you have an entry.  Apologies if this causes any confusion!

So again…here is your newest Easy-As-Pie Layered Template! <–click this to download OR click the preview image at the top of this post :o)

Your download includes:

• 12×12 Layered psd template with drop shadows (you can opt to turn them off or use your own)
• 12×12 Layered TIFF template with drop shadows

In the event this is your first time scrapping with a layered template – SP has created a quick and simple tutorial on how to use our Easy-As-Pie templates in PSE and PS.  You can find it HERE.  We’ve tried to cover the basics, but if you have any questions, please let us know and one of the Shabby Team Members will do their best to answer it.

Guidelines – done and dusted!…so, let’s check out all that inspiration, shall we?!…starting with a page by me!

Onto layouts featuring life’s ups and downs…the bittersweet and the sweetie-pie sweet!

A little Penelope for the girls…

That’s what I call “inspiration“ – THANKS so so much girls! :o)  Now that you’ve had a peek at our pages…we so hope you enjoy scrapping your own versions…Happy SCRAPPING!   Also, you can visit the Shabby Artist Gallery anytime for a closer look and for more information about each layout – we will be uploading throughout the day/night.
