Your last Think Outside the Box challenge is here and it may be my favorite one this month, and I actually think it's REALLY challenging. I hope you're up for the task!

While searching for this month's challenge inspo, I came across the most amazing project to create 365 "somethings" in 2025 and in doing a bit more poking into the project, I found it's been an ongoing project since at least 2018. Hanna's collages are GORGEOUS, and I thought there's no reason we can't do the same with all of the beautiful bits and bobs that are in our digital kits!

The Babes absolutely blew me away for this challenge and I know you're going to do the same. So get out your digital scissors and glue, dig through a variety of kits for the perfect bit or bob and make something beautiful for this last challenge!

Scrap a layout for this challenge and post in this thread by midnight ET on April 1st for your chance to win your choice of up to $20 in regularly priced goodies from one of the designers sponsoring today's challenge!

April 1st is the last day to earn Sweet Rewards & be entered to win this month's grand prize for completing all of this month's TOTB challenges! Be sure to update your post in this month's tracker thread by midnight ET to claim your rewards.

Thanks soooo much for playing along with us this month. When you're out and about in the world, I hope you'll continue to Think Outside the Box to find things that inspire your next creation!

Seriously can't wait to see your pages for our last challenge of the month. I'd love to know what you think of this format. Am I the only one who loves this slower, more in-depth pace? Are you excited to find out next month's blast from the past?
 
I am loving the challenges!
My preferences is to have all challenges posted at the beginning of the month. That way if I'm going to be away for some of the month, I can complete accordingly without missing and deadlines for prize draws!

But I have loved all the challenges so far and have created some pages I really like! Thanks to you Robin, the designers and all those involved!

 
Wow this challenge is something else!! It's going to be a fun one.

I've adored all challenges this month and yes, the slower pace of the challenges has been really nice for me. I feel like I took a big breath of fresh air this month and it feels good to slow down and not be pinned to the computer for all the free time I have. :)
 
What a cool challenge! I will say this is totally not my norm, but I'm excited to try my hand at it. Eeeeps!
 
I have loved all of the challenges this month! With the fewer number of challenges I could do them and be really happy with the pages I ended up with which made me excited for the next one. It was lots of fun!

 
This isn't beautful! I started out with that in mind but somehow- this is what I ended up with. It does, however, express my feelings right now- it's just not a good day/week, etc.

I always love a messy page, but I feel intimidated by them. This collage was a challenge! Also, I'm a toss between a page a day and a slow scrap.

 
This was a very different style, but it turned out ok.


I personally didn't like only 6 challenges this month! I have so many photos to scrap, that I needed more. I did scrap a lot this month, but if they weren't for challenges or CT work, I actually didn't post them! I could get more done without keeping track of all the credits and posting them around. So for me, at least having a requirement of 20-25 layouts makes me more active, gets me more layouts done, and gives me direction for those layouts.
