Congratulations! Please send private message to me with your address and your email address.
First off, thank you ACOT for allowing me to post this challenge! You gals ROCK!
This is a call for help to all of you compassionate scrapping pals out there. We need your help for a great cause. If any of you have seen the movie "Pay It Forward", this is our version and we are making it easy for you to "Scrap It Forward".
A mother in my area lost her sweet little 13 year old boy Trenton in a tragic accident on July 15th. She does not know how to scrapbook and had put a call out for assistance on Craigs List. My sister and myself want very much to help her in any way we can. Having lost my boy in an accident almost 2 years ago, I know how very fortunate that I was that I already knew how to scrapbook as having a book put together for family and friends to look at and treasure special memories is very healing. Since we are only 2 and we could not possibly create enough layouts on our own in such a short period, my solution was to get sponsors and post a challenge.
So yes, that means there is a prize package. We have several sponsors that have been very gracious to help in our cause and hope to obtain more while this challenge is taking place. Please Note that we may split the prize package into a traditional and a digital package if we obtain enough sponsors. If there happens to be no digital layouts sent, I will be splitting this package into two prizes due to the volume of sponsored items. I will try my best to make sure it is split evenly. (I would so love to win one of these myself )

I tested out mailing 2 layouts with thick chipboard backing in a clear protector and then wrapped in shipping paper.
We tested mailing from WA to NY and it was right about $ 2.50. I do believe you get the best rate staying under 6oz.
Hope this helps for more economical shipping.
