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 : Delirious
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 : Summer FWPs
Create a page using one of your favorite FWPs collected this summer. [If you weren't able to grab any over the summer, then please feel free to use any FWP from your stash]
#3. Featured :
Amanda +

Our brand new series of Featured Designer freebies are here for 2021, and we can’t wait for these fun kits to inspire you! Thanks to a suggestion from community member, Lisa aka Armygrl, our theme this year is focused on all of those special days that make up our sweet memories. From Rainy Days to Ordinary Days, A Day at the Zoo or even a Kinda Nice Day like Erica’s first kit in the series, we can’t wait for you to get your hands on these beauties! Taking inspiration from these fun kits, each month we’ll be asking you to scrap a page focused on the kind of day our designers are celebrating in their featured designer freebies! You’re welcome to use the kit itself, or simply scrap a page inspired by the title, but get creative and let your imagination take the lead.
#4. Inspired By : Random & Quirky
Scrap a page that documents something completely random and quirky in your life. Something that makes you smile and brings you joy. Like this brilliant page by Sugarbabe Kim B.!
#5. Dealers Choice : Rewind - Pie Charts
Let’s bring back the love of pie charts... think paper piecing, photos, and/or graphs!
#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 : Alternate Dimension - Perspective Switch
Take a photo that makes people wonder if they’re going crazy when they see it at first glance by altering the perspective of the photo! This is a great opportunity to either pose your subjects for some fun shots or simply edit a photo in order to flip your viewpoint.
#8. So Sketchy : Monthly Inspiration!
Use the following sketch as inspiration for your layout.
#9. Seasonal : There’s a Greatness to Your Lateness
Being late for something is a common occurrence. It's caused by a whole host of reasons. Some are intentional, some are not. Fall behind schedule early in the day today, and you’ll be late for everything that follows. Celebrate September 5th’s Be Late for Something Day by scrapping a page that documents your struggles to stay sane while trying to be on time (or not)!
#10. Typography :
On the Edge of Crazy Font
Download font and use it on your layout.
#11. Wild Card : Scrap anything you'd like for this challenge ♥
#12. Composition : Weighted Triangle
Scrap a page using a weighted triangle design. Where your composition is heavier on one side and then gradually tapers towards the opposite side of the page.
#13. Journal : Feeling Crazy
Do you ever feel “crazy” thanks to anxiety or depression? Dig deep and journal your thoughts on mental health. Is it something you struggle with or something you can’t relate to?
#14. Currently : Avoiding...
#15. List : Crazy Good Top 5
The last two years have made all of us a little crazy! Let’s turn those frowns upside down by scrapping your top 5 crazy good things that have happened to you since Covid began.
#16. Pop Culture : Peopling... Yay or Nay?!
Do you love big crowds or do they make you crazy? Sometimes getting yourself to venture out of the house can be challenging. Especially after so many of us have been pretty isolated for the past year and a half. How well do you [or a loved one] cope with social gatherings, braving shopping centers, attending school, or simply running errands? Create a page documenting your peopling skills.
#17. Details : Dot. Dot. Dot.
Have some fun playing around with circle backgrounds and allow them to take center stage.
#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.
