October kit contest: Make a card from your kit scraps!

by Nathalie

If you are a regular here, you know from my recent blog posts that I love to use kit scraps, so this month, I thought I would challenge you to use your kit scraps to....
create a card. Halloween, birthday, Christmas... any card counts as long as it is newly created for this challenge and made with a TTT kit!

Here is my example created with scraps from the fabulous March kit #2 (still available here!):

Details:
You need to use a current or past kit from Transparent Touches, and when you share your project with us, please specify which kit(s) you have used.

Due date for this contest is midnight PST October 31st! Winner will be determined by random drawing.

Each card counts as one entry with a maximum of three entries per person.

You can share your card(s) two ways: link us to it in the comments section of this post or share it with us in this post on the forum.

I look forward to seeing what you create!

And remember that you can still enter the Back 2 School kit contest until October 31st as well!

September Contest!!!

With all the kids back to school I know you got to get some scrapping time in. Here a fun contest right up your alley! I am giving you a full 2 months to enter as many times as you want! Also you don't have to use a TTT kit this time (you must be a TTT member though) but if you do use a kit I will enter your name into the drawing twice. So lots of chances to WIN a great prize from TTT!

Due date for Contest will be October 31st. 2 page layouts count as one entry. The more times you enter the more chances you will have.

Let's get to work and start scrapping. Pick any sketch to use or all of them. Please post your work here, on the blog or the facebook page (if you post on FB please provide a link on the comments of the blog or here.)

June 2010 Monthly Kit contest: Sketch or Memorabilia!

by Nathalie

I am going wild this month and decided to offer you three options for the kit contest (also giving you more chances to win that way)!!!!

Option #1: Use the following sketch and any TTT kit to create a page:


Option #2: Since I am sitting here with two layouts that include some (but you have to wait til the DT reveal to see them;), I would like to see pages including any type of memorabilia! Tickets, programs, letter, receipts... you get the idea.

Option #3: Make a page combining both option #1 and #2 and your page will count double! Yes, that's right, I will put your name in the hat twice for any layout based on the sketch that include some type of memorabilia!

Now onto the small print:
The main requirement is that you need to use a kit from Transparent Touches, any kit. Please refer to the rules post in the forum for additional details.

January Monthly Kit Contest

by Nathalie

Happy New Year TTT kit fans!

1/ During the cold winter months, a blue and sunny sky is always a mood lifter
2/ All three January kits have it in them
and 3/ My first two January DT pages happen to match the requirement for this contest!

Did you figure it out yet? For this month's contest, make a page with a blue background with any Transparent Touches kit . It can be cardstock or patterned paper but the background has to be blue (any shade) and you have to use one of TTT's kits (old or new).

Please refer to the rules HERE for additional details. Due date this month will be midnight PST on Sunday January 31st. Winner will be determined by drawing. You can enter as many times as you like. 2 page LOs count as one entry.

You can post your pages in this thread to share but in order to be in the contest you must post your pages in the gallery under the "January 2010 Contest Work Gallery" (I know that some of you have been having trouble with the Gallery so we will take that into account until it is resolved).

Have fun!!! Can't wait to see your pages!

October Monthly Kit Contest

I don't know if you are like me but I often take for granted the fact that TTT kits come with double sided papers and it is the case again this month with all three kits. I have recently gotten other kits that were not like that and that's when I realized how nice of a feature it was!

So for this month kit contest, you have to use both sides of at least one of the papers from a TTT kit on one layout. Remember it does not have to be the October kits. You can use any TTT kit to participate. When you're finished, load your page in the TTT Gallery under "October Kit Work" and link us in this thread. Please point us to the paper(s) that you have used both sides of (yes, I will be checking )

Please refer to the rules post HERE for additional details.

Due date this month will be midnight PST October 31st. Winner will be determined by drawing.

You can enter as many times as you like. 2 page LOs count as one entry.

September Monthly Kit Contest- Sketches!

The new PageMaps sketches came out and I love them so why not have a sketch contest this month. I picked 2 (one with one photo, one with multiple photos) and you can use one or both. I would love to see what you create using a current or existing TTT kit.
