Color Challenge {March 2025} Host: Aimee Harrison

Buffet Challenge {March 2025} Host: Kristmess

Another month gone and a new Buffet challenge awaits! Feel the fresh breeze of spring with the beautiful pastel shades in the March Buffet collection!

Taking part in this challenge is very simple—all you need to do is scrap a layout using something from the March Buffet collection. Super easy, as there are lots of great choices!

Post your layout in this year’s Buffet Challenge Gallery, and don’t forget to come back here and post it in this thread as well.

Here is the color palette for this month:

I can’t wait to see what you come up with!

REMEMBER

• All challenge layouts must consist of at least 80% GS products from current GS designers.

All About Me { March 2025} Host: Adrienne Skelton

Hi! I’m Adrienne from Adrienne Skelton Designs, here with a fun challenge called “All About Me”. If you’re like me, there is one thing that is often missing from your scrapbook pages … YOU! This challenge will help you create layouts all about you. These albums are not only fun to look back at, but they will be priceless treasures for future generations. You can add these pages to your family albums, but I think it’s extra fun to have a special book just for these layouts and then create new ones every so often to see how you and your life have changed.

This challenge will take place over two years. I’m going to try to throw in a mix of pages, from childhood through adulthood. Keep in mind that photos are not necessary – but they are extra fun if you have them or can get some. What’s most important is the story – the story of YOU.

Of course, if there is any information on your page that you don’t want to post publicly, feel free to blur that out or cover it up in some way.

This month, for your “Book of Me” (or whatever you choose to call it), let’s celebrate you!

I can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

Hi GingerScraps Family!

Thank you so much for your patience during our transition to a new and improved forum and gallery! I got a sneak peek today, and I just know you’re going to LOVE it!

The most common request I’ve received has been about the challenges. I initially considered posting them on Facebook, but since many of our community members don’t use Facebook, I’ve decided to post them here on the GS Blog instead!

This might make scrolling for Daily Downloads, Tutorials, or other blog content a little trickier, but don’t worry—you can use the “tagged with” feature at the bottom of posts to quickly find what you’re looking for. Whether you want to see all the Daily Download posts or just the March 2025 Challenges, the tags will help keep everything organized!

How It Works:

• This post will serve as the Master List of all the March 2025 Challenges.
• As each challenge is posted, I’ll update this post with a direct blog link to that challenge. I might not post ALL of the challenges but I will give you plenty to inspire you while we wait for the forum.
• BOOKMARK THIS POST or save the link so you can easily check back for updates!

Once the forum and gallery are back up, you’ll be able to upload your pages and post your links in the March Cookie Jar thread as usual.

We’re also still chatting and sharing in the GingerScraps Facebook group, so come join the fun! 💛

Thank you all for being such an amazing community—I appreciate your support and patience more than you know!

Happy Scrapping!
💖 Ginger
