Tammy, most of the time around here, Indian Summer refers to those very last days of summer going into the fall where it's still warm and calm and colorful.

Can I double dip some of the open house layouts I make for the Bingo challenge? I just made one for Traci's challenge that fits perfectly for one of the Bingo challenges.
|
#155
|
||||
|
||||
I had the same question ...
|
#156
|
||||
|
||||
Normally, we say no on using the same layouts for more than one challenge, but this is a different type of event. So, let me double check with Robin and get the official word for you guys.
|
#157

||||
|
||||
Good news! I asked Robin, and she said if you can make it work for both, then that's totally fine!
|
#158
|
||||
|
||||
Thanks so much for checking Libby
|
#159
|
||||
|
||||
Woohoo! Thank you for looking into that and finding the answer I hoped for!

Can anyone help me with the ABCs or 123s challenge? How do I interpret this? I'm not sure I understand the prompt.

Or, you can do something like 123 go... maybe about starting something new or running a race. Just a thought Hope that helps.

This may be a dumb question, but what is meant by dressing up/ dressing down or messy/clean. Does that mean scrap a page about both dressing up and down or dress your page up or down? Same goes for messy and clean. Do you mean scrap a page about both messy and clean? Or make your page messy or clean?
Now I think I'm confusing myself! LOL

This is my first time doing Bingo here and I like Jenn, overthinking everything!
(1) What does "What is your world like right now?" Like can I scrap taking the kids to Home Depot today because that's my life, doing things with the kids? Or am I scrapping current events, news--all that boring stuff I'll never want to include in an album? (2) I hate pumpkin/pumpkin spice. Am I allowed to scrap a layout using orange? Or do it HAVE to be a layout about pumpkin spice? (3) Clip it Good-- are we talking clipping papers to the template or literal paper clips? (4) Inspired by prints- are we talking tiny prints of photos or tiny patterns? (5) All about me: the journey - what journey? What does this mean? Can I scrap about a road trip? Uugh, SO many questions that my head is spinning. I'm so sorry for some of the questions that I have, I really am trying. I'm such a literalist that I've always been overwhelmed with challenge Bingo, which is why I've never done them, but I am driven by the chance of winning a GC!

These challenges are TOTALLY open to interpretation. As long as you can justify in your mind how your page fits the challenge, it's totally fine with us. These challenges are supposed to inspire you. We aren't in the business of trying to disqualify people.
So using some of the examples above: messy/clean - You could do a literal page of a messy room vs a clean room (or messy/clean kid or whatever), or you could do something like half your page is messy and the other half is clean, or any other way you interpret the challenge is fine, too. Same with pumpkin spice... if you don't like pumpkin spice, you don't HAVE to scrap about starbucks. LOL Scrap a trip to the pumpkin patch, the color orange, a general fall page using pumpkin elements. Just take these prompts as a jumping off point and let them inspire you. I promise you, as long as there is a connection in some way to the prompt, it's TOTALLY fine. |

Ahh, thanks for the reply, Libby. I've never done the challenges here before so wasn't sure how to interpret the challenges! Seems easy enough!

Um, I confess....I don't know exactly what something means and think I might have done something wrong with my bingo card.
"Spin your scraplift of sugarbabe: seattlesheri" What does that mean? I just scraplifted her but I'm thinking there might be more to it? |

Hi Wendy!
A Spin-A-Lift is an old challenge that we've done around here for years. Basically, it's just like a regular scraplift except you flip it or rotate it somehow before you lift it. BUT if you've already done your page as a straight-up lift, since you didn't know what that meant exactly, the challenge police aren't gonna come hunt you down. Just consider it done and move on to the next challenge! |

Thank you for the quick response. I want to be fair and not cheat. Can I ask one more question? Robin said for basic bingo, to scrap five layouts, yet the example shows the middle as free. giving you only four layouts to scrap. Today as I was looking through the easy mode forum, people who used the free middle, had an extra layout and one lady even pointed to a fifth layout. Is that something that is necessary as the middle doesn't count--having a fifth layout? If it doesn't count, do you just do another block of the challenge card or can any SSD layout count as your fifth layout? I'm only asking for next month, so I know all the rules. Hopefully this will be the last time you hear from me! |
#172
|
||||
|
||||
That's correct. The middle square is only truly "free" if you are doing a blackout of the whole card. Otherwise, in order to get your 5th layout, you can choose any other prompt on the card and count it for your free space.
Hope that clears it up! |

How do we know what kits we have that are free with purchase (I believe it's number 17). I don't remember what is what in my files because let's face it, I have a horrible memory!
Or are you talking about SSD Store collabs? |
#174
|
||||
|
||||
I have a question about the 2 free with Purchase kits. Is there a certain way to know if a kit you own was a free with purchase one? I tried searching in the store, but it only came up with the current free with purchase kit. There are a few kits that showed up since they have free with purchase items.
How do we figure this one out? Thanks! I'm attempting Bingo this month (I've tried in the past and failed, but I'm committed this time! I've already got a few pages done!)

Wendy and Dawn, one way (not necessarily the easiest way, I'd say...) to find out is to go through the SSD blog post about the featured designers and their FWP kits. Here is the link of the list of such posts: https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/i...ured-designer/
I hope it helps

I'm not sure if this is the quickest or easiest way but i had a look in my order history the ones with a $0 purchase price i got for free (some were the little freebies i downloaded but it's pretty easy to tell by looking at the kits which were freebies and which were FWB, they're usually bigger)

This may have already been answered, but can we use retired product from Sweet Shoppe designers for the bingo challenges? I am getting ready to purchase several kits from the retirement sale and would love to use them for a few of the challenge squares.

book blitz is open to your own interpretation.... but the spirit behind it is just to scrap about books! your love of books, a current book favorite, last book you read, books on your 'to be read' list, favorite author, favorite series, most reead book... etc. I'm going to scrap a page about all the books I read in 2016.
Hope that helps!

What does 'ticket stub' mean?
And does some have any ideas on what layout to make for the 'take a stand' prompt?

My son participated in a "100 Nights of Reading" challenge at school in 2016 and made it to 300 nights, so I'll be scrapping about that.
Quote:
As for the "Take a Stand" prompt, maybe you could pick a topic you are really passsionate about? Or an instance where you have shown a lot of resilience and/or stood up for something you believe was right?

Thank you so much Angie! That helps a lot! <3
We're going to see the new Star Wars movie this weekend, so I could take a photo of the tickets and scrap it. I had no idea what the word 'stubs' meant in English.
