Default IG Scrap Challenge!

Hello everyone! I have one more game for you all before the real madness of Christmas begins but this one is just a little bit different than usual. This one is an Instagram challenge!

Your challenge is to create a page documenting someone or something special to you this holiday season -- it can be anything: your favorite recipe, a particular family tradition, a person, place, pet or in my case - a keepsake dear to my heart. When you're finished post your page in the comments AND to Instagram with the hashtag #sweetshoppedesigns or @sweetshoppedesigns so I can feature your beautiful creations! If you don't have an Instagram account now is the time to get one because one lucky person who participates will win a $20 coupon to the store!

Here's my page for inspiration:



and I used this adorable collection from Digital Scrapbook Ingredients:



I know it's a busy time of year so you have a whole week to complete the challenge!

DEADLINE IS 11:59 PM EST , Friday Dec 29th!

Happy scrapping everyone!

Quick question--I want to scrap a birthday that's right around Christmas, but I'm leaning toward using a birthday or winter kit instead of a holiday kit. As long as the journaling makes the tie-in obvious, is that okay?

Sure thing! The point is to just have fun and get some memories scrapped!

I kind of cheated because it's not specific to this holiday but in general all year long. You know me and know the one thing that is special to me (outside of my family and friends) is visiting the local places with each and every duty station. My favorite place here in Colorado is Garden of the Gods. I probably go here a couple times of year. It's so beautiful and peaceful here that I just enjoy it! This was just our most recent overlook visit (last week) on our way home from Glen Eyrie. I love the beauty that is within those photos. If the weather stays nice, we'll be seeing it again this coming week!! <3

Instagram only works on a smartphone, right? I think I tried to get an account one time but couldn't manage it because I don't have a smartphone.

You can always create an account with Instagram through your computer:

And you can schedule your posts through Later:

I believe most people use IG on their smartphone but I personally also use it on my computer. I purchased an app called Flume Pro (there is a free trial version) and I can do all the posting and viewing, etc from my computer. I absolutely love it and think it was well worth the $10!

posting on IG in a few minutes. Mine isn't about the holidays per say, more about the winter season.

I've never tried Later so I can't compare... who knows? Maybe it's better but the amazing KCB sold me on Flume and it works perfectly for what I need!

Unless I looked at the wrong app, isn't Flume just for Mac products? Is there a PC version?

I guess you're right Wendy! I have a Mac and didn't even think twice if they'd offer it for PC's or not but it seems they don't. Phooey on them!

Yup, I just looked and saw it was only for Macs. Thanks for the suggestion, though!

Here is mine. Can you see our posts if we have a private account? I am not sure about how that works. Thanks so much for the chance! The most exciting thing about this holiday season in our family is that my son got engaged on our Christmas trip to Disney!

I just looked for yours and don't see it with the hashtag but if you tag @sweetshoppedesigns I believe it will show up! Ps. Congratulations on such a momentous event! What a perfectly magical place to get engaged!
