iNSD 2016: Bingo for Your Chance To Win!

[Robin Carlton]

Happy iNSD Sweet Shoppers! We're keeping things simple and full of sweetness this year here at SSD so you can focus on shopping, scrapping & sharing all weekend long! We thought it would be fun to put a funky twist on our Bingo challenges with a special edition card just for iNSD!

This easy-going card is full of shopping challenges, photo challenges & fun things to do around the community, so check it out and jump into the fun now...

Our iNSD Bingo card was created using Happy Snaps by Shawna Clingerman

We know it wouldn't be iNSD without prizes, so for every 20 entries we get, we'll be giving away $20 coupons too, so tell your friends to play along for more chances to win! Bingo in any direction, anywhere on the card is all you need to enter to win, so pick a row and go for it. You can do 5 of our community challenges, 5 shopping challenges or mix it up with a row that features a little of each!

Think you can fill in the entire card and complete blackout? If you do, enter to win a $100 gift certificate to the shoppe which is ridiculously sugary and super duper sweet!

Use screenshots, preview images & photos to fill in your bingo card and once you're ready to enter, just click one of the links above to submit your card for your chance to win! Also, the center space is only FREE if you're going for blackout, otherwise, just choose a challenge from somewhere else on the card if you're completing a bingo which includes the center space!

Entries must be received by midnight EST on Monday, May 9th to be considered!

Happy Scrapping & Shopping from all of us here at Sweet Shoppe Designs! Best of Luck to each of you...

Robin & The Team


*************UPDATE*************

I just spoke with Robin regarding the purchase requirements for the bingo card.

If you are playing for blackout you may use combine shopping squares as needed. So, you could count that card bundle as an INSD release from your fave designer for those 3 different squares.

However, if you are only going for a single line, you can't simply buy 1 kit (or bundle) and make it fit into every space on that line. That means if you were going for a bingo down the center of the card, you couldn't spend $10 on an INSD new release bundle with cards in your favorite color and then count that as an entry.

[Robin Carlton]

Bumping so you can play along!

[Nikki Epperson]

Fun!!!

[KingsQueen82]

Ooooo.. this is super fun! Going to see what I can do!

Done!

[kristalund]

this is a great BINGO card!! let the fun begin!!

[GraceLee]

Question here as well: can the purchases overlap? Can the kit I buy be from my favorite designer and also be having my favorite color, for example?

I'd say anything with more than 1 template would be considered a pack.

Edited: after clarifying with Robin, the purchases MAY overlap. Please see details in the top post.

[GraceLee]

Gotcha! Thank you!

[JMC1988]

Oh my, this should be so fun!
Let's see what I can get accomplished on this busy before vacation weekend madness plus iNSD!

[joelsgirl]

Just so I'm clear, there is only one square for scrapping. Right? Scraplift another SSD member?

[Libby Pritchett]

That's correct, Kellie... unless you want to dress up your own siggy or the ssd logo.

So, just to be clear, I couldn't buy a bundle with a kit and cards and have the kit count for one square and the cards count for another since the bundle is one product in the shoppe?

[shunnstergirl]

Ok. Thanks Libby!

[jumbbumble]

all do i love the bingo card , i am a bit sad there is not more scrapping on it , i always love the challanges they bring me out of my confortzone and make me one scrap my albums . With insd and nsd i always catch up on my albums

[Saar]

Count me in! Yay!

[Gemma]

Fun. Grabbed the card before I go shopping

[fruitysuet]

Can someone confirm what we do with the photos for the photo only challenges? Add them to threads, just on the bingo card? In the gallery?
And for the shopping ones also how do we indicate them on the bingo card?

I am also assuming that if we spend $20 that covers both the $10 and $20 challenge? But that for all other shopping challenges each has to be separate so buying an iNSD template pack from Cindy would only count as one (either template pack or iNSD goodie or favourite designer)? so by my reckoning we have to have six different products purchased to meet all the challenge requirements? Is that correct?

[anelia]

I'd love to participate too but with so many purchases required, I'm not sure if I will be able to do a blackout without using my bingo coupon
How do we confirm our new signature and profile pic, as well as purchases? Will a print screen work?
Also, how do we confirm on the bingo card our comments for 10 layouts?
Sorry for asking so much but I'm not really sure what do.

[Gemma]

I've screenshot my new avatar and signature then put them in the same bingo square.

For the 10 comments I was planning on screenshotting the ones I've commented on and making a collage to put in the square for them.

Not sure if either of my ways are right though lol.

[anelia]

Yeah, I was thinking something similar for the avatar and signature.
For the 10 comments I did a screenshot of the 10 links and added a text "love left on" Hope it works.

[Saar]

For the 10 comments one... I took a screenshot of my last comment. That was one a layout from Brie. I hope that's ok.
I also commented on layouts from Anelia, Britanee, Vickiyang, Conny, Kjersti.

Can anyone tell me where the 20 Questions Game is? Thank you very much!

[clucaswvu04]

Sounds fun - yes, wondering about how to add "proof" of purchases or comments left as well, or that we joined the questions game. Also where is the chatter group on facebook?

Not sure if it works, but this is the chatter group on Facebook.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/711450272232358/
I just took a print screen of it.

[anelia]

This is the Facebook chatter group

Proof of purchases -- I saw in the entry form there's a field where we should enter our order numbers.

There's actually TWO entry forms:
1. For $25 (with 5 completed prompts)
2. For $100 (blackout)

Thanks!

[Saar]

If we have blackout, do we need to fill in both forms? One for the 25 dollar coupon and one for the 100 dollar coupon?

[Gemma]

I screenshot the page with the download links and image preview as proof of purchase.

[anelia]

I guess we could also enter the number of the order directly on the card.
Sarah, that's a good question indeed. I suppose, however, that if we have a blackout, we should only fill out the form for the blackout?! Don't know.
What bothers me the most is that there's a lot of shopping involved for a blackout and I was hoping to use the 40% off from the last month's bingo which is due in a few days
If I shop now, what's the point of the bigger discount coupon next week?

[Saar]

I see your point Anelia!
I shopped 'till I had just enough for the 20 dollar FWP. I kept the rest for the 40% coupon next week.

Please let me know if that isn't clear.

Sorry for the confusion! I was going based on our past challenges, and since Robin is traveling around Europe right now (goodness... so jealous!), the time difference makes it tough for me to clarify things with her right away.

Thank you for understanding!

Yes, you may fill out both forms! Winners will be drawn separately, so if you only fill out the blackout form, you won't automatically be included in the single line drawing.

[Libby Pritchett]

And as for showing proofs, you may include screenshots, order numbers, or any combination. I'll be the one checking them, and I'm good with whatever method you use. IF there were a question, I'd contact you to ask before just disqualifying the entry.

[Saar]

Thank you Libby! You're the best!

[anelia]

Oh, thanks a lot, Libby! You're a sweetheart!
This is good news. Ok, off for some shopping

Please see my clarification post up top. If you spend $20 and are going for a blackout, you may overlap and count items for more than one square.

[scrappingram]

omgosh I get to play--I can do this

[scrappingram]

Happy iNSD Weekend & Good Luck! yeah!!!
full and uploaded

[Suzs]

For the seasonal/holiday square would something like a grad kit count (for the spring graduation season)?

[Libby Pritchett]

That sounds fine to me, Sue!

[Tinci]

Fun iNSD Bingo game!
My question: can I buy older template pack, or just new release?

[Libby Pritchett]

Ronda, I don't see a place to accept it... I must not be an admin in that group. Other people are getting accepted pretty quickly though, so you shouldn't have to wait long!

[fruitysuet]

Libby thanks for your clarification, that helps a lot!

Yep I just asked to join too and Traci has approved my request - so quick!

My biggest challenge is having to figure out how to get instagram. I couldn't get it before on my old phone and couldn't figure how to do it just via pc. I have a newer phone now so off to see how to do it.

[GraceLee]

Wish we'd known we could overlap before I went shopping last night! It took over 2 hours for me to get 6 products to fit into the card! LOL *is indecisive*

[kc33558]

Thanks for answering my question about 20 questions, Sarah!! I got it!

[jumbbumble]
