Hi everyone! I hope everyone is having a fabulous holiday season. Everyone seems to be busy busy busy!!! With that being said… we are extending our current challenge through the holidays. The new challenge will be posted here on Monday, January 5th, 2009. I hope this gives everyone a chance to submit their fabulous pages!
Happy Holidays everyone…. we’ll see you in the New Year!
That’s right, you read it correctly. This week Nathy has created an awesome template for us to work with as the challenge. Before we get to that though, I would like to announce the winner’s of last week’s challenge. It’s getting tougher and tougher to choose. You ladies are really rocking these challenges… and I see a lot more people played this week… THANK YOU!!!!
ok… our first place winner (for a $10 gift ceritficate) of the Simple Sleepy challenge is….
miney777 with this gorgeous layout
and second place (for a $6 gift certificate) goes to…
Jankacz with another stunner…
Amazing layouts ladies!
Please make sure you contact Nathy (nathy @ cinnamon-designs dot com) so that she can get your prizes to you! I loved all the pages and hope that everyone will play again this week!
It’s officially December and that means busy times for most of us. Thank goodness for Nathy!!! She created this wonderful template for us to use for this week’s challenge. How much easier could it get, right? You can click on the picture to download the template and play along…
Isn’t that great?!! The only other requirement other than using the Spice Of Life template is just to make sure your layout consist of at least 25% Cinnamon Designs products. The template is just a base… you do not have to copy it exactly… you can change it up a bit to suit your needs. If you feel more comfortable using it exactly “as is”, that’s ok too!! Just have fun. Here is a peek at what the Cupcakes did with Nathy’s awesome Spice Of Life Template…

Congrats ladies!! You did a wonderful job. Please make sure you contact Nathy (nathy @ cinnamon-designs dot com) so that she can get your prizes to you!
It was so hard to choose as I really loved every page!!! I hope everyone will join us again this week for another challenge. Since most of us starting to get really busy with the holiday season I thought it would be nice to keep it simple.
Once it starts getting cold and gray here all I want to do is curl up on the couch and take a nap…. especially after I have eaten a lot of turkey!
**I want to see a “sleepy time” page.
**Your photo has to be of someone (or a pet) sleeping.
**Your design needs to be centered and simple.
**The last requirement is that your LO must consist of 50% Cinnamon Design products.
Oh… and HAVE FUN!!!
Here are a few samples of what some of the Cupcakes did for the challenge…

Hello everyone, Jamie aka scrapaholic aka a Cinnamon Designs Cupcake here with my first blog post. I asked Nathy if I could host a little challenge for all of you and being the sweety she is she said yes. I am so excited to be part of such an amazing team of ladies. The Cupcakes really “rock my socks off”. Each one has amazing style so I though it was fitting that our first blog challenge would be a lift of a Cupcake’s LO.
So if you would like to play along and have a chance to win a great prize then here is your chance. Go to the Creative Cupcakes Gallery and pick an layout you like from one of the amazing Cupcakes and lift it using at least 40% Cinnamon Design products. Upload it to any gallery you choose and then leave me a link in the comments section of this post. I will be back next Thursday and pick 2 winners by random draw (1 $5 GC to choice & 1 $5 to Cinnamon store). You have until next Thursday 12 noon central to get your links in. I can’t WAIT to see what everyone comes up with.
For a little inspiration some of the Cupcakes played along.
Kristen lifted Two Beauties by kewl_jive
