{Dixie Pieces} "Big Summer - It's the End of Summer" Contest

August is approaching and summer is starting to wind down - doesn't it always seems to go by so quickly? Join us at Dixie Pieces for a summer contest and let us help you drag summer out just a little bit longer! We are excited to announce our first - "Big Bummer - It's the End of Summer" Contest! It's going to be SENSE-ational! That's right! It's all about the senses of summer! Each week starting August 1st one of our fabulous designers will offer up a challenge based on one of our five senses. Challenges will be given on Saturday morning and you will have until the following Friday at 11:59 PDT to get your entry uploaded into the Dixie Pieces gallery and posted in the forum. The fifth and final challenge will have an extended deadline of September 7th at 11:59 PDT due to the holiday weekend.

Guess what else? Each week of the contest - the challenge designer will share some tips on how to use her favorite technique on your layouts! So, you can expect tutorials on stitching, doodling, hand cutting, painting & more!

The details:

How do you win?
The contest will be based on a point system - the one with the most points at the end of the five weeks will be our Grand Prize Winner. Points will be offered for weekly participation in the challenge, capturing the vote of our secret panel of judges (including design team members, Sherry and Brenna, and sponsor representatives!), participating in random weekly trivia games, using secret items on your layouts, and completing all five challenges. In addition, there may be surprise points along the way - so keep an eye on the forums starting July 13th!

A spreadsheet tracking contestant points will be updated every week and posted on Monday afternoons.

What do you win?
