Final SBT50 CC Challenge

 Ant's The Price is Right challenge

As a kid I used to love the show The Price Is Right......I even remember my Mum and her friend going.....but they didn't get chosen to play.

So, The Price is Right! Have you ever seen how it is played? Basically there are a set of mini games where the contestants have to guess the price of items. In the final game, if they get all the prices correct, they win the prize.

So... i can hear you thinking how in the world are we going to do this... well we are going to play some mini games of course!!  We will have 3 mini games being played. Each game will give you an item to collect and then at the completion of the mini games you will be told what to do with each of these items! 


Here are the Mini Games

Mini Game 1 - Find a word
One word from the list can not be found in this find a word. That word is your 'price' for this mini game!



Word List:
Embellishments
Patterned
Paper
Cardstock
Twine
Washi 
Tape
Buttons
Ribbon
Brads
Eyelets
Paint
Glimmermist
Masks
Chipboard
Handmade

Mini Game 2 - Solve the clues to discover the next price!
My first is in staples but not in apples
My second is in washi but not in mashing 
My third is in mist but not in most
My fourth is in ink but not in stick
My fifth is in paper but not in scrapping

What am I?

Mini Game 3 - Crossword
Answer all the clues to the scrapping related questions. When you are done, the highlighted letters can be rearranged to spell the next 'price'!



OK - so you have completed the mini games!? 

If so you should have three answers - those three items should be scrapbooking products that are commonly used on scrapbooking pages. If you are unsure of your answers, please do not hesitate to contact either Vicki, Sarah or myself to confirm.

Now you are on the the final game (challenge). 

Final Game

You must now create a LO with those three products BUT those three products must be altered in some way. Yep....sounds tricky, but it can be done. 

Here is my sample:





I hope you have had fun playing our games and I hope you have fun creating your LOs. 

The winner of this challenge will receive a great prize from

Vicki's Catch Phrase Challenge!

This is a nice easy challenge to get you in the game show mood. You need to select ONE of the following 6 popular game show catch phrases, and scrap a layout using the corresponding criteria (listed below the phrase)! 

1. "Come on down!" - The price is right - 
Use vertical movement on your page or an upside down element

2. "I'd like to buy a vowel" - Wheel of fortune
Your layout must have a single word title with only one vowel in it

3. "I'd like to phone a friend"- Who wants to be a millionaire
Your layout must include a photo of 2 or more "friends"

4. Is that your final answer?- Who wants to be a millionaire
Your layout must a include a title in a question form. Eg She is stylish? 

5 . "No Deal!" -Deal or no Deal
Your title cannot include any of the letter in the words "NO DEAL" 

6. You are the weakest link! Goodbye!- The weakest link
You must include a item on your layout that has a chain or links in it. Or a matching pair of embellishments

Here is my example - i have used a picture of 2 'friends', my best friend, my hubby, and myself! 


All entries must be loaded to the correct gallery by midnight Sunday the 28th of April.

The winner of this challenge will receive some awesome goodies from Charm at Charm's Creations

 Vicki's Deal or No Deal challenge

My challenge for you all this crop is 'Deal or NO Deal'!! Sounds like fun doesn't it! 
This one works much like Sarah's Wheel of fortune, in that you get to pick your own criteria!  You need to select 3 cases, numbered from 1 to 26, and write them in a post here. You will then be pm'd with your criteria. This is where the fun begins, once you have been pm'd your chosen criteria, you can either go ahead and create your layout, or if you don't like the criteria, you can say 'NO DEAL' and we will use random.org to select a new criteria for you!  The catch is though, that you must then use the criteria you have been given! Will you Deal or No Deal!!??



Here is my example layout, i used random.org to get my criteria (but i'm not telling you what i got, or you might try cheat! )


Entries for this challenge must be uploaded into the correct folder in the gallery before Midnight (SA time) Sunday April 28th

The winner of this challenge will get some yummy goodies from Burdy's Handmade Embellies

Ok, so get about these challenges - I am
