Hi again everyone!
It's time for our May 15th challenge. Again, MANY thanks to all the wonderful entries for our last challenge. The winners will be announced very soon. Thank you also for your continued support. We have reached 500 followers since starting in April! WOW! This is an amazing response to our blog .
I wanted to quickly clarify some details regarding journalling. When you journal on your layouts, it is expected that your writing will consist of more than just the date/place etc. the photo was taken at. Your journalling should be at least 1 to 2 lines long. Please consider this when creating a layout. I would hate for you to create something stunning that cannot be considered as a winner simply because the journalling was not present or enough.
On to our next challenge.
MAY 15TH CHALLENGE
Journalling criteria: Your journalling should be typed (and remember it should be at least 1-2 lines long). You can also make a card or altered item based on this sketch and use a typed quote instead of journalling.
