If you have any questions regarding THIS month's Passport challenges, please post them here.

We have a wonderful team and community here at SSD....
so someone is sure to get back to you ASAP with answers to anything and everything related to our Passport Challenge System!

Here is a list of this month's challenge prompts for easy reference:

#1. One Little Word : Delight
You can use this word as/in your title work, within your journaling, or simply let it inspire the direction of your layout.

#2. Product : Scrap with a product found in our Summer (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/home.php?cat=320) category!

#3. Featured : Willemijne (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=54&sort=add_date&sort_direction=0) + Cindy (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=32&sort=add_date&sort_direction=0)
**NOTE** Because her feature fell at the very end of last month, you can also use Crystal's (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=62&sort=add_date&sort_direction=0) Feature/Product for June's Passport ♥

Our featured designer articles have been expanded since we started our alphabet inspired series, and are showcased on the blog each time a new designer goes into the spotlight. Your challenge is to use any solo product from one of our featured designers this month PLUS discover something from either Willemijne, Cindy or Crystal's interviews this month to use as inspiration for a layout, be sure to tell us what inspired you in your gallery comments!

The following are a few ideas on how you may glean inspiration from a FD interview... Using this interview with Meg [featured in December (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/index.php/2018/12/featured-designer-fwp-meghan-mullens-4/)] ... You might be inspired by the red and white cookie jars in her kitchen to scrap a red & white layout. Maybe you'd like to include the quote she shared “The Best Thing About Memories Is Making Them” on your page, maybe you were inspired by the letter “G” to scrap your own OLW starting with the letter G... or perhaps you might simply want to lift one of the layouts created by the Babes to show off the FD freebie. It’s totally up to YOU to decide how you'd want to be loosely inspired by one of our FD blog posts.

#4. Inspired By : Scraplift a page from our Sweet On: Summer (https://www.pinterest.com/ssdpins/sweet-on-summer/?autologin=true) pinterest board!

#5. List : 30 Before 30… what’s your next big age milestone?
Create a list of all the things you want to do before you get there! A fun idea to use for yourself or a loved one.

#6. Leaving Love :
Leave love on 15 layouts in the gallery and then post the link to each in your tracker thread.
Create your own place marker by using your favorite layout you've left love for during the month to "hold" that spot on your card ♥
Right click on a page in the gallery and save... follow by resizing this saved image to 97 X 97 before adding it to your Passport tracker image.

#7. Photography : FUN Destinations!
Think Playgrounds, Parks, Fairs, Carnivals, Amusement Parks, Festivals... etc!!

#8. Quote : Use the following quote on your page.
“Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.” - Michael Jordan

#9. Seasonal : June 8th is World Ocean Day!
Haul out those kits from under the sea and scrap a page that’s swimming with sea creatures!

#10. Typography : Funshop (https://www.dafont.com/funshop.font)
Download and use this beautiful font on one of your layouts this month

#11. Wild Card : Scrap anything you'd like for this challenge ♥

#12. Composition : Divided!
Divide your page in half, either left/right or top/bottom, and scrap each half as a mirror of the other!

#13. Journal : When was the last time you truly had fun?
What were you doing and who were you doing it with? Write down and share all the details!

#14. Currently : Enjoying...

#15. Color : Scrap with this month’s color swatch.
It should be obvious that the page you've created was inspired by the colors featured in the swatch image posted below.
** You don’t necessarily have to use all of the colors shown [use 2, or 3, or all 5] **

#16. Rewind / Flashback : Complete one of the challenges from the 2014 Sweet Shoppe Summer Shadowbox (http://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/index.php/2014-sweet-shoppe-summer-shadowbox/)!

#17. Scrap Stash : F - U - N!!
Scrap with a kit from your stash that has a name beginning with an F, U or N!

#18. Scraplift : Hosted on the Blog
On the first Sunday of each month, Sugarbabe Kim E. will host an inspiring Scraplift Challenge on the SSD Blog.
You have the entire month to play along and complete your page.

To keep in mind while you're scrapping...
These prompts are written and created with fairly broad themes/concepts in mind and I think that personal interpretation is key. You can certainly approach a prompt literally, or I encourage you to think about it in a different way ... take a creative approach on ways to apply prompts so that they'll work for you and your family.

How fun! The link to the summer shadowbox just takes me to an image, I can't access the challenges associated with it. Can you post the challenges so we can see them?

When I click on a box, it opens the page with the challenges for that box.

I was having the same problem, but I just realized that the challenge is in the light gray box on the top left & bottom right of the daily image. It is there - just not immediately noticeable.

I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, but I just want to clarify..... we can use Libby's Solo kits in challenges up until the end of the month right?

I'm so sorry if I'm being dense... but could someone explain the Shadowbox Challenge to me?
Are we supposed to use the elements in the box? Use them as inspiration? Or scraplift the LOs that come up when the box is clicked?
Thanks!! :wub:

It says complete one of the challenges, so I took the boxes as a challenge, like Bingo you could interpret it. So for instance I chose box #14 make a wish, and I scrapped a birthday page.

Of course that's my interpretation of what the challenge says to do, so I don't know if that's right. LOL

Another question, sorry!! I'm trying to get a lot done before I leave!

Spot 4 is Inspired by: Scraplift from Pinterest "Sweet on Summer"

I just want to make sure on this: I can scraplift the design of the LO, but it doesn't have to be summer...right? :)
