Welcome to The Great Digi Scrap Off 4.0! My name is Karen aka Scrapdolly and I am excited to host our Show Stopper challenge!
We are not requiring participants to pre-register this year. Just come and play along with us each week!
My Challenge is called Hit All the Right Notes. For this challenge you will need to include at least 5 pictures which feature 5 different things from your everyday life. You can of course include more. But, you need to also include song lyrics as journaling from a song that expresses how you feel about your everyday life.
For my layout, I used Laughter, Love, Happiness by Lorie M.
https://pickleberrypop.com/shop/Laughter-Love-Happiness-Kit.html
and also the coordinating digital stamps/words https://pickleberrypop.com/shop/Laughter-Love-Happiness-Digital-stamps-Wordarts.html
Here is my sample layout and explanation
I am very lucky to be retired and my everyday life is pretty chilled, and so the song I went with, both for the title of my page and the lyrics at the bottom, is the wonderful Living in the Moment by Jason Mraz. If you don’t know it, I highly recommend a google and a listen.
I opted to show some mundane parts of my day like cooking and my committee work, but also a flavour of the other features of my everyday life; some art and creativity, a frapp (maybe not every day but too often!) a daily walk, usually at the beach and time with my soul mate and our two Bengal boys.
So to summarise
General Rules
Your pages for each challenge must be new pages in order to qualify for credit. You cannot use PBP Team Challenge layouts for GDSO layout completion. All GDSO layouts must be posted in our GDSO gallery here: https://pickleberrypop.com/forum/media/categories/the-great-digi-scrap-off-2022.1158/ with proper credit given. See our PDF guide!
Specific Rules for Signature Challenges
Use It All Challenge: You must use ALL and ONLY the items in the mini kit. The 75% PBP Rule does not apply to this challenge.
Template Challenge: You must use current PBP Products for your challenge layouts (and the template).
Mystery Box Challenge: You must only use the contents of this Mystery Box for your layout.
Living in: Hope Collab Challenge: You must use only our Living in: Hope Designs. You should have several parts of the collab already, if you have been playing along with us.
BBD Challenge: You can only use our March BBD products
Weekly Technical and Showstopper Challenges
The Technical and Showstopper challenges must use at least 75% current/active product in the PBP Shop in order to qualify for credit. Technical and Showstopper Challenges CANNOT be completed using the Use it All Mini Kit, Template or Mystery Box that is given with Signature Challenges.
All three challenges must be completed by the deadline each week in order to qualify for the weekly participation prize and to be considered for our weekly Star Scrapper Award.
Our Grand Prize will be awarded to one scrapper who completes all 15 challenges by the last week’s deadline. This means even if you don’t finish each week on time, you can still catch up to earn the remaining prizes and qualify for the Grand Prize!
Start a post in the GDSO Challenge Tracking thread
Keep this up to date with links to the layouts that you’ve completed and uploaded to the GDSO gallery. Please make sure you are linking to your page IN THE GDSO GALLERY, not the thread post in the challenge.
Final deadline for all layouts is April 4 @11:59pm ET. At that time the tracking thread will be locked, the final weekly prizes will be sent, and winners will be contacted by April 7.
