Easy-As-Pie Template Challenge {13}

Thursday, June 2, 2011

Hi everyone! Kylie here and I’m so excited to host the blog’s latest Template Challenge - lucky number THIRTEEN! I had a wonderful time creating this month’s template to share with you all. It’s a little “busier” than the last few challenge templates – but hey, you know me… can’t help but throw in a few extra pieces when I can! ;o)

I hope you enjoy scrapping with this template as much as I did putting it together. And remember, a template is just a starting point. A collection of shapes that need some love and attention! So by all means, add to it, take off some elements, rotate it… SCRAP IT YOUR WAY! I’m really looking forward to seeing how everyone brings this easy-as-pie template to life. To help your page grow into something special - just add your precious photos and stories, your scrapping style, and of course, all those beautiful Shabby Princess products!

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

So, before we get to the amazing inspiration… let’s go over the GUIDELINES for our template challenges here at the Shoppe?!

The ‘deadline’ for this challenge is JULY 3rd :o)  We will announce the template challenge winner on July 7th, when we share Template Challenge FOURTEEN!  As you probably know, we now 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 – 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 JULY 3rd, and again…the winner will be announced in early July (the 7th to be exact)!

 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.

Okay, with all the formalities done and dusted, I think it is definitely time for some inspiration! YAY! :o)  Please remember that you can always visit the Shabby Artist Gallery for more information about each layout – we will be uploading throughout the day/night)…

I really gave this template a solid work out and created three pages!  Here is a sneak peek of my two faves… the first, well I went a bit embellie-crazy!

And for my second page – notice the new Birthday Bash paper?! If you haven’t checked out all the May birthday goodies click HERE – you’ll LOVE what’s on offer!! 

Next is the super-talented SP! How awesome is this page? Seriously… WOW! Those Just Married Stickers are amazing!  And that chef has got to be the cutest chef I’ve ever seen!

Lovely Anna has shared this extra-gorgeous page! Such sweetness… just look at those big brown eyes… awww!

And last (but definitely not least), our newest team member, Rachel did such a beautiful job with the template! I’m loving how she rotated it to suit her adorable princess pics… and that delicate clustering is precious!

Now that’s what I call “inspiration“! ALL so different and ALL so beautiful! Thanks girls! :o)  Now that you’ve had a peek at our pages… we so hope you enjoy scrapping your own versions!  And we are so looking forward to seeing your pages in the gallery!  Happy SCRAPPING! :o)

{ Remember to link up to this post only to enter template challenge THIRTEEN }

And, now, what you’ve no doubt being waiting… with much anticipation… for!!! – it is my privilege to announce the winner of  TEMPLATE CHALLENGE TWELVE!  This time, the ‘lucky’ number was 17… and that means that twin_mommy08‘s HEARTSTRINGS layout was selected! :o) Oh my, is that not one of the sweetest twin pics you’ve ever laid eyes on! CONGRATULATIONS, twin_mommy08!! You should have received a $25 gift card to the Shabby Shoppe in your email box (be sure to check spam folders) this morning…ENJOY the shoppe-ing and thanks for joining in the challenge fun!  And, as always…a big THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the last template challenge. We’re so happy you did!!

Again, have heaps of fun with this month’s challenge and we hope to see you back here TOMORROW for an extra yummy post!! Bye for now! :o)

    Can I simply say what a reduction to search out somebody who really is aware of what theyre talking about on the internet. You positively know easy methods to deliver a difficulty to mild and make it important. Extra folks must read this and perceive this aspect of the story. I cant imagine youre not more standard because you definitely have the gift.
