Default November 2021: Passport FAQ


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 : Tribe
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 : Gratitude
Scrap a page using SSD products that capture feelings of gratitude for you. Use something from your stash or search for words like grateful / gratitude in the shoppe and be inspired by what you find there.

#3. Featured : Jennifer + Blagovesta
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 : Family
Be inspired by pages that focus on those people in your life that you think of as family.







#5. Dealers Choice : Color Families
Scrap within a color family. Scrap a monochromatic page from one of your favorite color families (like blues, reds, greens or pinks for example) OR get creative with warm, cool, neutral color families too!


#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 : Family Gatherings
Scrap with photos that capture your favorite family /group gatherings.

#8. So Sketchy : Monthly Inspiration!
Use the following sketch as inspiration for your layout.


#9. Seasonal : Buttons!!
In honor of National Button Day on November 16th, scrap a page with heaps of buttons!






#10. Typography : Bestowens Family Font
Download font and use it on your layout.

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

#12. Composition : Big Bold Titlework
Scrap a layout where your titlework really takes center stage!








#13. Journal : Family Traditions
Journal about a special tradition that your family enjoys together.

#14. Currently : Grateful for...

#15. List : Your Family Members
Create a list of the people in your family. Think about approaching this “list" family tree style or keeping it simple with a more traditional list. You can list the members of your smaller nuclear family or branch out and include generations of family members. You can also think about scrapping a holiday family member shopping list, a list of your work “family" or another group of friends you consider “family”. Get creative!

#16. Pop Culture : Saturday Crafternoons
The notion of Crafternoons have sprung up in recent years as a time spent either by yourself or with like-minded friends working on /enjoying your favorite crafts or hobbies. So have some fun creating a layout that celebrates your favorite creative endeavors.






#17. Details : Blended Backgrounds
Have some fun and create a page that is built upon a blended background.






#18. Scraplift : Hosted on the Blog
On the first Sunday of each month, Sugarbabe Angie 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.
