Sweet Shoppe Designs

Robin Carlton · #1 03-31-2025, 11:44 AM

Sweet Shoppers,

How the heck is it already April?! Time is flying, and while I never love the feeling of that, I am excited that a new month is already here because I have been LOVING taking this trip down "challenge" memory lane with you!

This month is so, so, sooo easy and fun because we're revisiting our Scrapper's Portfolio challenges which means you get the ENTIRE set of challenges right here, right now!

The rules are incredibly straightforward...

Each challenge has a point value, and Sweet Rewards and entries to win this month's FREE goodies are awarded by earning points. Scrap along with the challenges that inspire you to build your own "portfolio" of layouts to earn the rewards YOU want!

Let's get to it with your look at this month's Scrapper's Portfolio...

As you can see, the goals are simple! Create a portfolio with 10 points, and you'll earn a 25% coupon to use in the shoppe during Sweet Rewards Week in May. Or, collect 20 challenge points, and you'll receive a 40% discount, plus you'll be entered into a drawing to win a $50 gift certificate to the shoppe!

Sweet Rewards earned this month will be redeemable May 11th-24th, 2025!

Grab a spot in this thread to share your layouts and your final "checklist" once you've collected all of your points for the month - easy as that!

DEADLINE: Update your tracker and post in this thread no later than 11:59pm ET on May 1st, 2025 to claim your Sweet Rewards and be entered to win!

I love how flexible and fun this system is and I hope you enjoy it this month too!

Happy scrappin'!

Robin

Like they always do, our fabulous and truly creative Babes wanted to get your wheels turning by creating a portfolio of their own! For their sample portfolio, they've scrapped 5 of the one point challenges, one of the 5 point challenges and the 10 point challenge for a total of 20 points to earn the max rewards!

Here's how they did it and is a good example of what your final post should look like at the end of the month...

It's Asymmetrical! - 1 point

That sucks... - 1 point

Wordless Page - 1 point

Travel without leaving your living room! - 1 point

Bitten by the Creative Bug - 1 point

Scrap for a Fellow Sweet Shopper - 5 points

Note: Swapping photos is an easy way for both of you to get 5 points, but it is ok if you simply scrap photos FOR someone without it being reciprocal.

Photo Scavenger Hunt - 10 points

As you can see, there are lots of ways to get involved and scrap along in a way that works for you! Short on time? If you do the 10 point challenge and you're happy with the 25% reward, you're done for the month. Feeling scrap happy? Do all fifteen 1 point challenges and one 5 point challenge and you've earn 40% and an entry into this month's drawing!

Putting together a portfolio of your own is the best part and we hope you have fun with it!

Let us know if you have any questions!
