#3. Featured : Christine (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=49&sort=add_date&sort_direction=0) + Janet (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=31&sort=add_date&sort_direction=0)
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 Christine or Janet'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 : Rainbows
Scrappers use a rainbow of colors in amazing ways on their pages, so get creative with papers and elements to create a page that uses a rainbow of colors. Here’s some inspiration from our paper scrapbooking friends:

Keep Life Simple

#17. Scrap Stash : Every : Day : Everyday Word Art
Use word art from your stash that includes the words every, day, or everyday!
#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.
