Challenge Bingo FAQ!

Spin-a-lift is an older SSD challenge. What that means is that you choose a layout from Aly's gallery, and then you flip it or rotate it to a different direction before you scraplift it.

Does that make sense?
 
I am already really missing seeing the inspiration for each challenge separately. Would it be possible for each challenge on the bingo card to have a thread for general sharing? For instance, if I wanted to see how people were doing the 'no embellishments' challenge I could just click on that thread for inspiration.

Be sure to check out our weekly Bingo with the Babes thread to see lots of inspiration!
 
so sorry... one more question

"use at least 4 3x4 pocket cards on a layout"

does that include ones you journal on, and is it ok if it's in a PL layout?

You bet! A pocket page would totally satisfy this challenge and if you arent a pocket scrapper, the challenge is in using at least 4 of them on a layout. Blanks that you journal on would certainly count!
 
If a particular challenge can be done in 1 or 2 pockets of a Project Life layout, is that enough? For example, things like scrapping a top 10 list or scrapping something trivial about yourself could easily be worked into a weekly or monthly layout. Obviously others might not be conducive to just a pocket; using an icy color scheme or no embellishments probably needs to apply to an entire page whether pocket or traditional.

Bumping this because it hasn't been answered yet. I've posted a couple of challenge pages like this, so I just want to clarify if they meet the challenge while there's still plenty of time to redo them if necessary. Thanks!
 
Hi MIchele! Welcome to SSD! So glad you're getting back to digi!

To answer some of your questions...

Spin-a-lift is an old SSD challenge that we've done over the years. Basically, you choose a layout and then flip or rotate it and lift it from there!

Any products from current SSD designers is fine... including freebies, items you've picked up from their personal store, and retired items. As long as it's by a current designer, you're good!

You're also welcome to check out our free sample section and use those things on your layouts. We just put 24 new free items up yesterday, so there are lots of fresh things there to play with, too!

And yes, we'll be putting up a new board each month! :)

Finally, I'd say that if you wanted to just try the challenges on your own using outside-of-SSD product (just to try out the system and knowing that it wouldn't count for rewards), you're welcome to do that. However, we do not have an "open" gallery, so that means, you have to use some SSD product on your page for it to be posted here.

I hope this info helps a little. If you have other questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Guess what! I just scrolled through my stash to see if I could find Sweet Shoppe kits I already have. I change my folder icons to kit previews so I can easily see what I have, and the Sweet Shoppe packaging is very easy to pick out from my stash too. I found I have several kits from the past few years from designers who are still here! I have last year's birthday collar too!

I also found I have two kits from Kristin Cronin-Barrow and Zoe Pearn that were monthly Premiere kits at DigitalScrapper. Would those count because the designers are here, or no because these two kits were sold elsewhere?

I'm going to get started on the Bingo challenge soon!

Hey Rachel,

If you're a pocket scrapper, you are welcome to scrap the challenge pocket style!

Thanks for asking!

As long as the designers are still here at SSd, using products they created no matter for special features they've done around town is just fine :)

Script and Sans Serrif fonts...I can't find them in Photopshop. Are they under that name?

You can use any script font you like. Script fonts are anything swooshy and scripty...

Serif and San Serif are accents or the lack of those accents on fonts as seen below...

For this challenge, we want you to combine script with San Serif on your layout like seen below...

The fonts you choose are up to you!

You need to choose one of the patterns shown. We may change things up with different patterns in the coming months <3
 
Robin, a question...
FOr the no-embellishment challenge, does Cindy's photostamp qualify to be used on the page?
 
i'd like to know about this too...
but my guess is no ? :unsure:
because if photostamps is allowed then paints, doodles and those kind is allowed to use too...
 
Ok I have a problem. I finished my bingo card. I had been reading the FAQ here and there but didn't see the Q & A for the no embellishment challenge. Can I redo that and resubmit so that it qualifies? I currently have a style on mine.
 
Yes, you can redo & resubmit the page :wub:

can we use kits that a designer has for sale at another store?

All products by current SSD designers are ok. :) Retired products, freebies, items that are for sale through guest spots, etc will all work. As long as the product is by a current SSD designer, you can use it, no matter where you got it.

Hope that helps!

I'm not quite sure about that center square. Does it mean that you can choose any of the challenges from the square and do a second lo for it?

If you are doing the black out the center square is free. That is how I read the instructions anyway so I hope that is right :o
 
Yep!

If you're doing Blackout the center square is FREE!

If you're doing any other pattern, just choose a challenge you aren't doing as your center spot in the pattern.
 
Just a question about the coupon. I,m Trying to go for the 40% but with the sale at the moment some bundles are -50% since the -30% and the bundle discount are combined. Will the -40% be on top of the bundle discount as wel?
 
Can I scrap in other formats than square (12x12)? I mostly scrap in A4 (~8.5x11) these days, are these layouts okay for the challenges?

I'm not the boss, but I don't see any problem with that. For putting the layout in your bingo card, just resize it so the longest size fits the square and center it in there. It shouldn't be an issue as long as the layout itself matches the challenge.

Im not a Babe or admin but as far as I know no coupons ever combine here on top of another
