Happy International Scrapbooking Day everyone and welcome to this special iNSD-edition of Sweet Shoppe Saturday! As I’m sure you know, iNSD is one of the biggest scrapbooking events of the year which means in addition to TONS of new products hitting the Shoppe today, all weekend long at Sweet Shoppe Designs, you can save 30% storewide and join in tons of fun games and activities in our forums.
I know all the fun & craziness of iNSD can be a little overwhelming so in an effort to make things simple for ya, I’ve called on my powers of listy-ness and put together a list of all the things you need to know about celebrating iNSD with Nettio Designs. I hope you’re nice & comfy because there’s a whole lot to talk about this week, haha.
1. New Goodies: Grid-tastic Vol. 1 Templates
What would iNSD be without some new goodies right? This week I’m releasing Grid-tastic Vol. 1, a brand-new four-pack of templates designed around one of my absolute favorite things: grids!
What I love most about grids is you can easily dress them up or down any way you want and no matter what, you’re guaranteed to have an amazing design because the grid is such a strong design element. Plus they’re super easy to customize to any story because you can easily swap a paper block for a photo and vice-versa without compromising the overall design.
The best thing about these grid-tastic designs is they can really be used for any sort of life adventure you want to capture. Just take a look at all the different ways the Sweet Shoppe Sugarbabes and Team Awesome scrapbooked with this template…

2. Storewide Sale at Sweet Shoppe Designs
Of course, in addition to new goodies, what would iNSD be without a sale? Through Monday you can save 30% off storewide at Sweet Shoppe Designs.
We’ve also got a special spend $10-$15-$20 promo going on which if you spend over these amounts you’ll get some amazing FREE goodies included with your purchase.
If you spend $10 you’ll get Misty’s adorable kit…
If you spend $15 you’ll get Misty’s adorable kit AND our exclusive iNSD SSD collab which is chalked FULL of amazing goodies including a brand-new template from yours truly…
Here’s a closer look at my template…
HAnd finally if you spend $20 or more, you’ll receive Misty’s kit, the iNSD collab AND a set of awesome quick pages from the Sugarbabes…
Also as part of the iNSD festivities is a RARE custom font sale from our fontographer Darcy Baldwin!
I was lucky enough to have had my own handwriting turned into a font by Darcy a few years ago and let me tell you, not only did she make the process crazy easy but it’s hands-down my most used font for my scrapbook journaling. There’s just nothing like having a digital copy of your own handwriting to add that personal touch to your pages.
3. iNSD Digi Parade Free Template
Looking for some FREE goodies this weekend? Here ya go! I don’t often give out full freebie templates but in honor iNSD this year I’m participating in the May Digiscrap Parade, where an amazing group of designers from around the community teamed up to create the awesome That’s Life collab.
No hoops to jump through for my goody – just hop over to this page on my site and click download.
4. Introducing the New Team Awesome
And now the announcement I know quite a few of you have been waiting for…the results of my Creative Team Call!
Let me just say that you guys did not make it easy on my team and me! SO much good talent and I can’t even tell you how fun it was to read a little bit more about each of you who applied. I’m so honored that you would want to scrap your life adventures with lil’ ol’ me. W would have loved to take all of you but well, that would be crazy, haha. So instead here are the six lovely ladies who I’m so excited to announce will be joining Team Awesome…

5. Your Chance to Join the SSD Team
Speaking of teams, over at Sweet Shoppe Designs we’re looking for some fresh meat to join our SugarBabes team. I was honored to be a Babe for over four years before becoming a SSD designer and let me tell you that it truly is one of the sweetest gigs in digi. The call only lasts two days so if you want to throw your hat in the ring, go to this thread for all the details.
Also over at SSD we’re looking for a fabulous action/preset maker to join our design team so if you think you have what it takes, drop Robin an email at admin@sweetshoppedesigns.com
