May Challenge!

Hello everyone!

Welcome to our May challenge. THANK YOU all for playing along with our last challenge. We read so many beautiful stories.  I also received a lot of emails telling me that it was the first time some people had scrapped something "sad" in their lives. Thank you for sharing your stories with us!

On to our next challenge! After last month's deep and meaningful journalling requirements I present you with an easy challenge :) 

Have fun and take care!!!

Journalling Theme: "Anything goes...."

Yes, you heard right.. this month you can create a layout about ANYTHING you like, but please do not forget our journalling rules..Read below..

You are free to interpret our theme ANY WAY you like. It is for your inspiration and this theme word DOES NOT need to be part of your title or journalling. But please make sure your layout is based on the sketch below and includes journalling (hidden journalling is fine). Acceptable journalling is MORE than just a sentence, or generic writing such as date/place etc. It needs to be present and at least 3 lines long. Remember, hidden journalling (under a photo/tag or behind your page) is perfectly fine but please DO let us know in your post where your journalling is! 

 Now here is what our Design Team came up with. Please click on their blogs for more details on their creations. I am sure they would love to hear from you !!!
