Default DD website help

Hi Everyone,
Since I am new here, I don't really understand how all the different challenges work. I would like to know what the color challenge is all about. Are we suppose to just find something ourselves that is an inspiration and create papers or pages and submit them to you? Just not sure how these all work and haven't found instructions yet, so would really appreciate your help. Thanks for all you do.
Val

Each week one of the Creative Team members posts an awesome FREE paper pack and the challenge is to do a layout using those papers. Then post it in the color challenge gallery!

Hi! Welcome to DD! The 3 challenges each week are color, journaling and everyday inspiration. The team gives us a freebie to use in a layout however we choose. When you go to that particular gallery you can see all the different ways that the freebie was used by members. Again, welcome! Look forward to seeing you in the gallery.

I'm glad someone else asked that questions---I was never really sure what the challenges were, either, or how to "do" them! It's like meeting someone at work, or church, and hearing their name, then forgetting it---and a year later, you still don't know their name, and are embarrassed at that point to ask.

Welcome to DD!

Thank you everyone for clearing up this matter. I look forward to taking on the challenge. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I had to go out of town for awhile, but I'm back now excited to get going.
Thanks again,
Val
