Sweet Shoppe Designs

Robin Carlton · #1 08-12-2021, 10:35 AM

All of you aspiring Babes out there... I have another amazing opportunity to join our team of SugarBabes! We're looking for a blog Babe who will be responsible for our In the Works Wednesday and Thursday Treats blog posts each week!

In exchange for your two posts per week, you have full access to the shoppe and can create layouts alongside our layout Babes without the weekly scrapping "requirements".

It should be noted that this position requires someone who is organized, a self starter and committed. I really rely on my Blog Babes to run with their responsibilities and get those posts scheduled each and every week, and our current blog babes have been doing this since 2015! So we're looking for longevity in the role.

If you have an interest in this position and want to join our team, email me a sample Thursday Treats blog post with a theme of your choosing (don't forget the images) plus your reasons for wanting to be one of our Babes by Saturday, August 21st before you head to bed.

I look forward to hearing from you guys, and can't wait to find another new member of the Sweet Shoppe team!

Let me know if you have any questions!

Robin

This would be an awesome opportunity but like so many others I'm not a natural writer for blog posts I don't think

Robin I tried sending my email numerous times and it kept telling me my email was too big

Same! I just emailed Robin about it, too! I'm glad it wasn't just me.

Kiana · #23 08-13-2021, 07:04 PM

Emailed mine!!!!

Kiana · #24 08-13-2021, 07:08 PM

Welp drats I got the same message too big. I'm going to remove some of the images I guess and try again.

Kiana · #25 08-13-2021, 07:29 PM

Okay I figured out a way to send. lol

Nothing I do makes it small enough to send, including removing some images. Could you share how you made it go through?

How about hosting the images on imgur or something similar and share the links instead? Or send a PDF of your email?

I tried hosting on imgur with much smaller images, but it still didn't go through. I will try the PDF option. Thank you!

Kimberly27 · #29 08-14-2021, 03:34 PM

I had no issues...that I know of. I assume mine went through. I dragged the images into gmail and made them small instead of attaching them. A pdf would work though. I hope you can figure it out.

LJSDesigns · #30 08-14-2021, 04:46 PM

Gmail is always the best way to send an email with images as they allow bigger file sizes. It's one of the main reasons I have a gmail account. LOL Another way that you might be able to do it is to upload your sample to dropbox and share a link in your email.

I did the same thing. I tried smaller images and hosting them and didn't work. I ended up making a couple of collages with the images I chose. Took an 8x8 layout in PS and put 4 product images on it. That worked for me

I like this ideaa!

norton94 · #33 08-15-2021, 12:37 AM

You should have one from me

Dalis · #34 08-15-2021, 12:42 AM

Robin, I submitted mine, but I just sent you a link. I hope that's ok?

eve11ne · #35 08-15-2021, 03:38 AM

Good luck to everyone who's applying!

iScrap · #36 08-15-2021, 12:03 PM

I was finally able to get a message small enough to be received. I used the combine them all into one image method and made it small enough to not be rejected. Thanks for the assistance!

Yay glad it finally worked!!!

weaselwatchr · #38 08-17-2021, 12:19 AM

I sent mine as a pdf attachment. Good luck everyone!

wimpychompers · #39 08-17-2021, 06:30 PM

I emailed mine over, waiting to see if it gets kicked back for being too big!

bcgal00 · #40 08-17-2021, 07:01 PM

Wowie...this is so tempting!!! I have wanted to be a Babe for many years but gave up last year, thinking no other chances would be coming up in the foreseeable future.

bcgal00 · #41 08-17-2021, 11:44 PM

Whew...done. Gmail was wonky, a few previews didn't show when I opened up the email in the "sent" folder but hopefully it is viewable on Robin's end.

Good luck to everyone!

Hi, Lorie!

Unfortunately, having a Gmail account doesn't help, since the problem is on the recipient's end. The sweetshoppedesigns.com email host is kicking the message back with the response 552 5.3.4 Message size exceeds fixed limit - so however the SSD email host has configured that mailbox, it appears to have a very small message size limit.

Time to get creative...

Well, I had no idea. I am so glad all you ladies are creative cause I am sure you will figure it out. I think the dropbox link still may be a viable option.

bumblebeee · #44 08-18-2021, 04:55 PM

Sent mine in. Since sending it by email didn't work I learned how to create a pdf file! Yay for me.

Robin Carlton · #45 08-23-2021, 08:38 AM

Hey chickies!

I received a ton of fun apps, and it's going to take me a couple of days to get through them. Back to school is Wednesday, so I might be a bit busy with that, but I promise that we'll let you know as soon as possible who our newest blogging babe will be!

Hang tight and thanks so much to each of you who applied!
