Advent Event Calendar of Events & a little “How To” for the Daily Downloads.

Share a SMILE with us….

We are so excited to be able to share a SMILE with you all this holiday season.  We couldn’t think of a better way of expressing our gratitude to each and every one of you for your loyalty and support throughout the years.  Not to mention, this year being somewhat of a roller coaster ride of political events, natural disasters, war, etc. around the world, we thought we all need that little reminder that there is Always Something to SMILE about.  So, from our Oscraps family to you, enjoy a SMILE today….. and every day for the next 25 days.  We’ve got a little “how to” for you at the end of this post.

We also have the traditional forum event happening with daily games and challenges – don’t worry, you’ve got til the end of the month to complete them all.  Our standard monthly challenge rewards are in place, plus a few extra designer sponsored challenges.  And, rumor has it, we’ve got a mischievous little elf named Buddy, running around randomly passing out coupons to lucky participants.  The more you participate, the more you can win!  If you’re very lucky, we won’t catch him until he’s passed them all out.  He was last spotted running around  in the special Advent Event section of the Oscraps forum.

As if all this wasn’t enough, the “shop by Category”  Christmas, Hanukkah, New Years and Winter categories will be ON SALE for 25% off for the entire month of December!

Buddy, being the sometimes mischievous, but always helpful little elf he is, has put together a little “How To” on how the daily downloads will work:

• Visit the Oscraps Blog every day
• Find Santa peaking out from the side of every page of the blog, so it doesn’t matter where you are, Santa is there waiting for you.

• Go ahead and click on ol’ Saint Nick to open the advent calendar.

• Click the appropriate day.

• Click on Santa and Rudolph to download.

• If you have any trouble, we have a special event HELP section in the forums.
