September 2025 - SWTSB 9/5 - 1-2-3 Challenge

[kim517]

Hello there Sweet Shoppers! Here's your invitation to your next Scrapping with the SugarBabes challenge! I'm excited to share this one with you. It's a flash back to a challenge format we used in speed scraps in 2014. And I think you'll find it's simple as 1-2-3!

We are giving you 1-2-3 things to use in your layout:

1 - COLOR
2 - WORD
3 - TECHNIQUE

Your challenge is to use all three of these to create your 1-2-3 layout. Take a look at the image below to see the inspiration we've found for you to use...

Ready to scrap along with the Babes? We've got some great inspiration to share with you from myself and some of the other Babes. Take a look these layouts to see our inspiration.

Simply scrap along and update your post in this month's tracker thread to claim your Sweet Rewards and enter to win this month's $50 gift certificate giveaway!

My inspiration

 

[GraceJ]

Awesome challenge! thanks for hosting and the inspiration :wub: I was inspired by the shelves and books, and the color palette from one of the books that I'm reading (I repeated the photo), my crocheted shawls isn't exactly made in the same color palette, but pretty near thought my take, beautiful weekend!

 

[GraceJ]

Beautiful pages Jacinda! thank you so much for sharing, so inspiring :wub:

 

[jagruti patel]

I have a question...maybe I'm overthinking. But what does the technique part mean?

 

[KAPOH]

I THINK I understand what "color" and "word" mean, but I agree with Jagruti, above, what does the "technique" mean?

Looking at the inspiration layouts, I think it's supposed to some sort of shelves or horizontal lines with your photo(s) and elements lined out. At least, that's my interpretation...

 

[kim517]

Yes, the technique is to take the inspiration of shelves with trinkets and photos on them and use that in your layout somehow. In mine, I have drawn shelves and put elements and photos on them. That's a very literal interpretation, but you don't have to be that literal. Heather's layout uses the horizontal lines from the shelves and she scatters elements around her layout. We are happy for you to be creative and make this your own! I see Geraldine already scrapped a beautiful layout with one "shelf" and the row of three pictures. As long as it's true to the idea of the challenge, go for it!

 

[jagruti patel]

Thank you!! I get it now!
