Unfortunately, due to a number of legal restrictions surrounding U.S. companies operating contests for residents of other countries, the contest is restricted to residents of the United States and Canada only. Residents of Puerto Rico and Quebec are not eligible for the contest because these territories require all communications with participants also be posted in Spanish and French, respectively. We apologize for any disappointment this may cause. All decisions regarding the scope of the contest were determined by our attorneys. All inquiries may be directed in writing to our legal counsel:

ATTN: Charles Davis

Mesa, AZ 85201

Why are residents of Quebec restricted from entering your online contest?

This is due to strict laws in Quebec that make residents of that territory ineligible to enter our contest because Quebec law requires that all promotional materials related to the contest be presented in both English and French. Unfortunately, providing legally acceptable French translations of the English rules is not feasible for us.

Can people under the age of 18 enter if they have a signed release from their parent or guardian?

Laws regulate the participation of people under the age of 18 in any contest. Due to the administrative burden that would result from processing parental releases, the contest is open only to people age 18 and older.

Can I submit layouts that are digitally created?

No. All layouts submitted to the contest must be scans or photos of physical layouts. Some elements composing a physical layout may have been created in a digital environment, but such elements must be printed and affixed to the layout. Such items must not compose the majority of the layout. Computer generated fonts and journaling are acceptable.

Can a previously uploaded layout from my Scrapbook.com gallery be posted to the contest?

No.

Can I submit my layout to other contests, magazines, or websites?

No, not during the contest period (including the judgment/review period).  Layouts that have been found to have been submitted to other contests, magazines, or websites during or before the full contest period will be disqualified. Layouts that do not win the Scrapbook.com Layout Contest may be submitted to other contests, magazines, or websites only after winners to the Scrapbook.com contest have been announced.

Can I enter tags or cards to the contest?

No. Only scrapbook layouts measuring 8"x8" or larger are eligible.

Does a two page layout count as one entry?

Yes.

Can I upload a two-page layout separately or do I have to stitch the two sides together in a photo editing program?

You can do either. A two-page layout may be uploaded as two separate thumbnails, or you may stitch them together and upload the entire image as one thumbnail. Choose whichever option suits the detail of your layout best.

If I submit more than one layout, will the layouts be judged as a group, or individually?

Our Contest Review Committee will look at each layout individually.

Can I change or edit a layouts I have already uploaded to the contest gallery, prior to the final contest deadline?

Yes, provided you delete the earlier upload. However, you will lose the layout's comments and other community feedback.  If you attempt to change or edit any part of your entry after the contest has officially closed, your entries will be removed from the contest gallery and sent to your member gallery. We offer no "last minute" support if this occurs, so it is important to get your entries in on time and to be sure they are presented and labeled 100% the way you want them (layout, description, products used, etc.)
