How long does it take to ship?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n        Sweet Shoppe Designs is a digital scrapbook boutique! All of our products are delivered as downloadable files, which means nothing is shipped to your home. You can start creating as soon as your payment is processed!<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>How do I download my order?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n        Once your payment is complete, your goodies will be waiting for you in the &#8220;My Account&#8221; section under the &#8220;Order History&#8221; tab. We also send a confirmation email with direct links to your personal download keys for easy access.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>I&#8217;m getting a &#8220;Download Attempts Exceeded&#8221; error.

We are always happy to reset those links for you so you can get back to scrapping!<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>I&#8217;m getting a &#8220;You Have Nothing To Download&#8221; error. Can you help?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n        This message usually appears if a product or designer has retired from our store and the files have been removed from our servers. Because of this, we aren&#8217;t able to recover those specific files for you. We highly recommend downloading and backing up your purchases to a cloud service or external drive as soon as you buy them.<\/p>\n<p>If you believe this is an error and the product is still active in the shop, please let us know your order number so we can investigate!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>I accidentally purchased the same product twice! Can you help?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n    Our shoppe includes a handy &#8220;Already Purchased&#8221; alert, but it can\u2019t always tell when a kit you already own is also part of a larger bundle or collection.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve accidentally doubled up, don&#8217;t worry! Simply open a ticket with your <strong>order numbers<\/strong>. We are happy to refund the duplicate item or the difference between your two purchases so you only pay for an item once.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>Can I get a refund?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n        Because our products are digital and available for immediate download, we are unable to offer refunds once the files have been downloaded. However, your satisfaction is so important to us!

Since we cannot guarantee the availability of our files and regularly retire products from our product line to make room for new goodies, we strongly encourage you to back up your files to a cloud service or external drive to ensure they are safe forever.<\/div>\n<\/details>\n<details class=\"my-faq\">\n<summary><strong>Can I share my purchased designs with friends or relatives?<\/strong><\/summary>\n<div class=\"faq-content\">\n        While dessert is always better when shared, our designs are portioned as <strong>single servings only<\/strong>!
