Sweet Shoppe Challenge Bingo: March 2015
March is here Sweet Shoppers!
How did you guys fare during our 10th Anniversary Celebration? Hopefully you stocked up on sweet stuff and are ready scrap your heart's out for this month's Bingo Challenges! We listened to your feedback on last month's card and tried to make March's challenges a little more general with lots of options that are open to interpretation but still challenging! I have another beautiful card to share with you guys thanks to SugarBabes Juli & Loni, and I know you're eager to get started this month, so I'll stop babbling and let you get to it! Our challenge system is mostly the same for 2016, we've just put a little more heart into making each card special! You'll find repeating challenges each month if you're into themed albums or monthly pages and lots more, so read on for all of the details on 2016's Sweet Shoppe Challenge Bingo... The Low-Down To play along, check out this month's Bingo card and start planning your strategy for earning the discount you want. Our Bingo challenges are designed to be fairly simple, straightforward and open to interpretation for the most part, so have fun with them! Like always, challenges in quotes indicate a word or phrase which should appear as shown on your layout. Otherwise, remember that as long as you try to scrap in the spirit of the challenge as it's posted, you'll be just fine, but let us know if you have any questions! This month's Bingo card was created using Lucky by Erica and will be available in the shoppe March 5th! Sweet Rewards Traditional Bingo: To earn a 20% discount, you'll need to scrap 5 challenges in a row in any direction. The center space may be used to choose another challenge of your choice from the card for a total of 5 layouts... Pattern Bingo: To earn a 30% discount, you'll need to scrap 9 layouts in one of the following patterns again using the center space to choose a challenge of your choice from elsewhere on the card. New for 2016: Alternatively, you can scrap any two horizontal or vertical lines, or a combination of one of each, to earn your pattern bingo discount! (Thanks for the suggestion Rachel!) Please Note: The rules for the center space still apply! Blackout: To earn a 40% discount and be entered to win a $50 gift certificate to the shoppe, you'll need to get blackout and fill in your entire card (we'll let you have the center space free this time)... Tracking & Earning Discounts To track your challenges this year, click here to download your own personal bingo card. Once you've completed a challenge, resize your layout to 160 x 160px (which fits perfectly in a bingo square) and put it on the corresponding spot of the challenge on your bingo card! Save your completed card and post it to this thread by midnight on March 1st, 2016, and our lovely challenge fairy, Lydia, will automatically send you your Sweet Rewards of 20, 30 or 40% off depending on the pattern on your card the second full M-F of every month! The Nitty Gritty You must use Sweet Shoppe products for the bulk of your page. Outside templates, minor accents, etc. are perfectly ok as long as at a glance the page is obviously created with products from our shoppe and designers! Challenges MUST remain where they appear on the card. You MAY NOT scrap 9 layouts of your choice and simply put them in the corresponding pattern to earn a discount. Obviously due to the size of the layouts on the tracker card, it would be difficult for us to check each challenge in detail to make sure it matches with the challenge, but we know we can count on our amazing community to play by the rules. More Sweet Stuff As if all of this weren't sweet enough, I'm excited to share that EVERYONE who posts a bingo card in a month with at least one line complete will be entered to win their choice of a kit from this month's Featured Designers Dream Big Designs & Erica Zane! My right arm Libby will choose at least 4 lucky winners at random the field of challenge participants to win these sweet treats which is just awesome! On that note, I'm going to let you get to work!! If you have any questions, please post them in our 2016 Challenge Bingo FAQ thread so that this tracker thread is easy to view at the end of the month! Don't forget to keep your eyes open for our Bingo with the Babes threads for weekly challenge inspiration and the opportunity to share some of your favorite challenge layouts in more detail throughout the month! Happy scrapping! Robin p.s. - we'd love to be able to really SEE your tracker cards - so if you can save your photo at 950px wide to photobucket or another offsite image hosting site that allows large images, and share those with us in the thread, that would be awesome!

This is my first bingo attempt, so I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask questions, but could someone define "dip" and "scoop" for me? I have a vague idea that these are kits that 2 or more designers collaborate on, but I'm not sure. Thanks! Last edited by Libby Pritchett; 04-02-2016 at 03:33 PM. Reason: add a photo |

Goodness me! I love this month! Such a cute bear
Unfortunately, no way I'd do a blackout, but having fun on my holiday instead, that counts for something, right? Here are two lines that I did earlier, before I forget to post Last edited by zinzilah; 03-24-2016 at 06:00 PM. |

Well, this was all I could get done, but this is the most layouts I have done for Bingo, so yay! I did the depth of field challenge for the center box. Did I misunderstand that? I thought to use it, you had to do another lo. oh well. This is what I did. I also wasn't sure if all my layouts needed to be in the Bingo gallery. Should I move them? Sorry! Obviously my first time doing this. :/
