Exclamation Quick Poll - September Challenges

Hey ladies!

You've been working sooo hard the last two months, and with DSD coming up at the beginning of October, we wondered if it might be nice to take a challenge break in September?

Since you're doing the scrapping and earning the Sweet Rewards... what do you think?

Let us know by replying to the poll above and thanks so much for pouring your hearts into this summer's challenges!

We love you guys!

R

Thank you for all the fun challenges Robin and the Sweet Shoppe team!

I admit I find it was too much challenges for me this month as it was holidays so I didn't play all the challenges even if it was really interesting and fun.

I vote Bring it on because I like having challenge to boost me to scrap more.

The challenges bring me some help and a departure point to go for layouts each month but I don't know if I will have enough time with new school for kids and new activities this month.
Maybe it could be a little break but with prompt for for those who want without any Sweet Rewards?
Anyway I think it will be cool!

I'm voting to bring them on!
I also like the extra challenge to scrap in one direction or another.

I love challenges and love that they challenge me to scrap layouts each and every month! I'd understand if you took a month off, but I would be sad not having them

I'm also a vote in favor of challenges for September! I likely won't use any Sweet Rewards I earn as a result of completing them, given the big iNDSD sale at the start of October, but that's only part of the reason I work through the challenges anyway. Mostly, it's because they help keep me motivated, and focused, and inspired, and all of that helps me keep filling our family's albums with layouts.

Plus, as much as I hoped I'd be able to slam through all the challenges in August, this month has totally whipped my butt. A couple weeks of being sick, plus a trip in the middle of the month, and I got totally off-track. So, yeah. My vote is for more challenges, if your awesome team has the bandwidth to put together a Passport for us!

ETA: On the other hand, if you don't do September challenges, I will probably just go back and finish the August challenges I didn't get around to... so it's all good either way!

I didn't vote because. . .
either way I'm fine. I knew August was going to rough for me, so I only did a few of the 31 challenges here and there. So, bring it on!
However, if everyone behind the scenes would like a break, I'm good with that too. Especially with DSD coming up so soon.

I voted for a little break. Just because I'm sure the behind the scenes might want one too, with DSD coming. But I'm always game to take on a challenge or two

I wasn't able to do the July or August challenges that y'all did. We just had too much going on, or I might have at least looked into it. I quit doing the regular monthly challenges quite a while back. I have limited scrapping time and just decided that they were too much work to deal with. When I scrap, I just want to scrap what I want and not worry about meeting the guidelines of a challenge, posting it to the passport card, uploading it, etc. There are enough sales throughout the year for me to partake in if I want a discount on something and if I have to have something when it is released, the 25% discount is sufficient. So for me, it wouldn't phase me at all if you skipped a month.

I would love to see challenges again in September. But back to the normal passports! Not sure I could do another 30-31 layouts again, but I love the directions they provide, and the wiggle room that you usually have for them means I am still scrapping what I need or want to, but just get a fresh perspective I may not have thought of.

I'd love to see the challenges, but totally understand if the staff needs a break. Thankful for all the hard work that went into creating the summer challenges!

I voted to take a break, thinking more of the staff than the members. Maybe that will lighten their load a bit this month.

I haven't done challenges in years, but when I was I did them monthly for that discount, but if you are getting a sale discount anyway, not sure the sweet rewards discount is necessary.
