Pay it Forward?

I always leave love when I post a layout but do we also scrap a page about it? How do we get that one done on the card?

#19: Scrap with an iNSD collab [International Scrapbooking Day- it's the first weekend in May]... You can scrap with ANY collab that is released on May 5/6th. This includes the THREE Sweet Shoppe Store Collabs that will release that weekend!

#14: Tutorial Challenge - Creating Cutouts
... See Here

#23: Pay it Forward - Leave Love on 15 Gallery Pages... You leave love on 15 layouts in the gallery and then post the link to each in your tracker thread.
Use the place marker below to "hold" that spot on your card ♥
First click on the image and then right click and save as a .png file.

I need some help girls -- I bought some kits with stitched alpha and it is in a single sheet -- so my question: how do you get the alpha "cut apart"?

I am still learning and this is something I have never figured out.

There is a tutorial that shows how to use full sheet alphas HERE. Hope this helps. If you are still having problems, though, just let us know.

Somehow I totally got the date wrong for this challenge It should read the 7th, instead of the 6th. The Scraplift Challenge posts on the first Sunday of each month on the SSD Blog. This month it's a little different, as the lift selection process is part of the iNSD challeges. You can check out all the details HERE.

I have a -silly- question to ask... but can we use the layouts we did for the NSD games for the bingo too? Of course, only if they match. TIA

Yes, that should be ok, since we didn't specify anything about it.

I was trying to post my layout on the blog but the link won't go through.

What kind of makeover can it be for challenge #18?

It probably went through, just needs to be approved by Kim (one of the sugarbabes that is in charge of the blog). So, don't worry about it.

As for makeover, it can be a page about you having a hair makeover or house makeover or garden makeover. I hope that helps.

You should be getting your coupon soon, Lea I think the iNSD makes everyone so busy that it is a bit delayed.

Brand new (Just signed up 2mins ago) and I have a question, I'm sure it's been asked before and is probably easily found somewhere I didn't look yet. I'm wondering if the Free collections on the site (under Free Samples, I think) can be used for these challenges? Thanks so much!

Hello and welcome to SSD!
Yes, you can use the free samples as well as any designers' freebies for the challenges, so long as the designers are still selling here. Looking forward to see your pages and participation around here.

thank you! but for some reason I can't save it. It ends up being corrupted. Anybody else has this problem?

edit: I managed to just drag it into photoshop and then erase the background around it.

I right click and then do save image as.

What is the tracker thread where we save the links to our comments. I don't get that?

I think something's getting corrupted via the image host... If everyone can wait a few hours, I'll have Robin host the image through the site & that should take care of the problems

I'd say that fits the challenge perfectly. Go for it.

I used Boyhood Adventures: COLLECTION by Flergs & KCB ap1 and add the stitching from the same kit. Would this be ok to use as stitched alpha?

There is no specific "script" font, is there? I googled and it gave me a lot of script fonts so I just chose one on my stash.

Yep, for this month, you just get to scrap with any script font you'd like.

I just want to point this out and double check

"Like always, challenges in quotes indicate a word or phrase which should appear as shown on your layout."

That is the verbage used in the monthly thread and on the bingo card it is in quotes. It is a bit confusing.

I forgot about that bit... [i'm so bad at following the rules myself ]
I may revisit that "rule" in the future... but for this month, since I already said you could scrap "in the spirit" of the quote, let's go with that
