ACOT Message Board

Thank you all for joining in on my birthday month celebration. Unfortunately the celebrating came to a halt during the month as I lost my dear mom. But, I have now had a chance to go through all of the wonderful creations in this thread and enjoyed seeing what you all created. As promised, I have picked 4 winners! Plus, since I had over 20 entries not counting bonuses, I am picking a 5th winner!

The winners, chosen using RandomNum iPhone app, are…

Winner #1
#40 Tammey

Winner #2
#19 Kelly R.

Winner #3
#1 jcsmaestra

Winner #4
#46 Retiree3

Winner #5
#52 lisn2cats

Congratulations to Tammey, Kelly, Mary, Donna, and Lis. I have sent out your gift cards. Thank you to everyone that participated.

***UPDATE: Some of you are not using a song title (or song lyric) with the word "Party" in it for the title of your layout or card, so please be sure to do that. That is the main challenge. The word "Party" must be in your title. I want to be fair to everyone that does enter correctly, so if you didn't use a song title with the word "Party" in it, but you did the bonuses, I entered you for the bonuses but not for the main challenge. I really need to be fair to everyone that does the challenge correctly, but I did not want to remove all the work on the bonuses because of the one mistake. I hope everyone feels this is a fair way to handle this.***

It's my birthday month Cherries! So let's have a party! Choose any song that has the word "Party" in its title, or any song lyric that contains the word "party", and use it for the title of your layout, card, or whatever you decide to create. And because it's my birthday month, there are a bunch of bonuses this month too!

Bonus #1 - An extra submission if your layout is about a birthday.

Bonus #2 - An extra submission if your layout uses a song title containing the word "Party" AND there is also a lyric from the SAME song somewhere on the page. (The lyric does not have to contain the word "party", as long as the song title does.)

Bonus #3 - An extra submission if you scraplift my layout below.

And…

***You MAY stack bonuses*** So if you have all three bonuses on one layout you will get 4 entries!

And…

***Since it is my birthday month and there are so many opportunities for extra entries I am going to pick 4 winners this month***

So let's have a party!

Open to paper, digi, hybrid, cards, crafts, planners, or anything else you are inspired to create.

Multiple submissions are allowed up to a limit of 3.

You may combine with one other challenge that allows combining and you may also add to the Prompts Challenge.

Post your submissions to this thread by October 31st and 4 random winners of all participants will receive a $5 ACOT GC from me!

And most important - HAVE FUN!

Here is my layout. I chose the lyric "Get this party started" from the song "Get the Party Started" by P!ink. Pic is of my sweet JJ in front of the Stitch poster that DD hung up for her birthday. (They both LOVE Stitch). It was such a fun photo to get! My layout is a bit busy, but I tried not to overdo it and lose the photo in everything.
