Merkee’s Spotlight at Oscraps is almost coming to a close! Don’t forget to drop by the Merkeley Designs Blog Train and grab the awesome freebies for you!

For her Spotlight at Oscraps this Week, Merkee has set up a challenge with AWESOME prizes when you join!

Your Challenge This Week

- Scrap a “past” event/time that marked a very special moment, achievement or get together in your life or the life/lives of someone you care about.

This can be a milestone birthday, anniversary, graduation, babies first steps, special award etc. (Anything that is a “Kodak” moment you don’t want to forget!)

- Use at least 50 percent of Merkeley’s stuff (keep reading….she’s got a great freebie for you) and as always, 100 percent of Oscraps stuff. (Dig into your Oscraps stash and have fun!) (Remember photo actions don’t count).
Edited to add: You may use the blog train element/alpha freebies but NOT the Quick Pages. Your layouts need to be created from scratch.

Note: Any Merkeley Designs products will work, you don’t have to use the freebie…just her stuff!

- Post your layout in the Oscraps Designer Spotlight gallery.

- Come back to this thread and post a link to your image (and the pic please if you know how) so we can leave you some lovin’ in the comments.

- Post all layouts by Sunday, Aug. 2 (midnight EST-USA time zone please).

The Prizes
WOW…take a look at these prizes!

First Place: $100 coupon to Merkeley Design’s store – To the person who completes the most layouts during the spotlight.

Second Place: $50 coupon to Merkeley Design’s store – To the person who completes the second most layouts during the spotlight.

Third Place: $25 coupon to Merkeley Design’s store – For the most creative layout (this layout/person will be picked by Merkeley Design’s Creative Team members)

Additional Prizes!!!!
Merkeley Designs will also have three random drawings for all qualifiying participants! $5, $10 & $15 worth of products.

Take Note: Each layout gets your name entered into the drawing. So, make five layouts, your name will be in the drawing five times!

Wait…there’s more. Everyone who participates in the challenge (and meets the qualifications) will receive a $2 coupon good towards their next purchase at Merkeley Designs.

Another Reward!
During my spotlight week, wear Merkeley Design’s fan blinkie and you could win a coupon for $25 worth of Merkeley Design products at the end of the spotlight week…..

Isn’t this AMAZING?!  Hurry now before you miss this awesome opportunity!  Anyway, for this challenge, I did a LO with my friends from High School.  Of course we’re still friends today even though all of us don’t live in the same city.  This photo was taken in our sophomore year in college back in 2002.  We also had different Majors but we still found time to be together, glam shots and all. :D
