THANKS TO EVERYONE THAT PLAYED ALONG WITH THE 25 ITEMS CHALLENGE. I WAS IMPRESSED WITH HOW MANY CHERRIES COMPLETED ALL 25 ITEMS.
THE WINNER CHOSEN BY RANDOM DRAW OF THE PHOTOPLAY COLLECTION IS... JMO95. CONGRATULATIONS! PLEASE CONTACT JESSICA@ACHERRYONTOP TO CLAIM YOUR PRIZE.
We’re played this in past years and seems to be a favorite. It is designed to use up some of your stash and adds another challenge to layer on top of the ones you will be working on for NSD.
ALL PROJECTS CREATED FOR ANY NSD CHALLENGES CAN BE COMBINED WITH THIS CHALLENGE. However, NO layouts created for any other May challenges will count toward this challenge.
You have until Monday, May 15th at Midnight EST to upload your projects to this thread.
Below is a list of 25 items you can choose to incorporate into your layouts and projects during this year’s NSD Crop. You can use as many or as few as you like on each project that you complete. For every five items on the list that you use, you will get one entry into the challenge. (So, 5 items = 1 entry, 20 items = 2 entries and so on.) Some are easy, some aren’t….but that’s what makes it a challenge, right?
Please replay to this thread to hold your spot for the challenge, and copy/paste this list into your reply. As you use times on the list, edit your reply to show what you’ve used.
