Challenge Update and Freebie Template

Well, another week has passed and we haven't had anymore entries to our Prince Charming Challenge. So this is your last chance...I really want to give away a Nezzi Designs kit, but with only a couple entries, I won't be able to! Each entrant will still receive this lovely kit by me,

but unless we get a few more entries, I can't give away a free Nezzi Designs kit to anyone!
So, one last time, here are the rules:
--Your entry must have the title Prince Charming
--Send me a link to your photo, or attach your photo in a message to me, lynnirene[at]live.com.
--As soon as you send me your photo, I'll send you the link to download the above "Magical Delights" kit.
--If we can get 5 entrants, I'll pick one participant at random to win a Nezzi Designs kit of your choice!
--This challenge will be open to at least October 13...at which point I may decide it's been open long enough...so PLEASE enter soon!

And now what you're looking for, my first ever template! It's a little simple, but I figured I should start out pretty basic for my first one. Let me know if you have problems downloading/opening. I use the GIMP so I saved as both an xcf (gimp) file and PSD layered file which should work for PS, but I can't check it on my own.
Please send me a link if you make something with it, I'd love to see what you made!

Another Challenge Update, and another freebie

Well, our challenge is well underway and I do have some great entries so far. For those of you new to this blog, let me remind you of the challenge we have open right now:

--Your layout must have the title "Prince Charming" in one form or another. See this post for my original layout that inspired the idea.

--Please email your entry to me at lynnirene@live.com.

--Just for entering, you will get this FREE kit, made by me:

You can download a free Magical Delights QP from this post.

--AND, if we get 5 or more entries, I'll pick a winner to receive a FREE kit by Nezzi Designs!

So, please keep sending entries! I'm planning on keeping this challenge open until either next Sunday, Sep 28, or until I get 5 entries, whichever comes later.

And, to thank you for stopping by, here's a freebie QP I made from Nezzi Designs kit, Garden Potpourri. Please give her credit if you use it. The link is here.

Here is Garden Potpourri:

You can find it at Busy Scrappin' and Crafty Scraps.

First ever Scrappin' Squad Challenge!

Well, I was going to wait until next week for our first challenge, because I just wasn't getting any inspiration for either a challenge or a participation bonus. Then it came to me, how about a Title challenge? The layout I just made had the title "Prince Charming" and it occurred to me that this could have several meanings depending on what your photo is of. So, let's make a challenge from it!

Here are the rules:
--Your layout must have the title "Prince Charming"
**Updated**--You must submit it to me at lynnirene@live.com no later than 5pm EST Sunday, Sept 21. Sunday, Sept 28!
--The layout you email to me should be around 600x600 pixels.
--Each person who sends in a layout will get a little bonus kit from me. I'll post exactly what it is later on in the week.
--If 5 or more people submit entries, I will pick a winner to receive her (or his) choice of Nezzi Design kits! So tell your friends, the more the better.
