(e.g. Chocaholic, Dancer, Positive, Energetic, Athlete, Mother, Organizer) Make your page a tribute to you; use a variety of fonts and alphabets and your 25 words on the layout. 24 - Dig out your favorite Sweet Shoppe kit. Select four colors from the kit. Now use papers and elements from other Sweet Shoppe kits that match the color palette you just created. Be sure to tell us what kit you used to generate your color palette. 25 - Use a variety of borders - either pre-made or shape templates to create a page inspired by this piece. 26 - Sinner or Saint?

Is there anything you need to be forgiven for? * What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done? * What’s your secret desire? * What’s the most outrageous thing you’ve ever done? 30 - Are you still sticking to your New Year's Resolutions? What have you done lately to stay on track or meet your goal? Scrap a page about your progress (or lack thereof) or perhaps your plan to get back on track! Five Point Tasks - 10 Primary Points Possible 31 - The five senses. Pick 3 senses below and scrap 3 layouts to earn 5 points: 31a -SMELL - a layout about a scent.... roses in your garden, freshly baked cookies, dirty diapers. 31b -SIGHT - a layout about something you like to look at... the ocean, the squirrels in your backyard 31c -HEARING - a layout about what you like to listen to... favorite music, your child's laugh 31d -TOUCH - a layout about something you like to touch... fuzzy blanket, pet, bare feet on the carpet 31e -TASTE - a layout about tasting something... your special brownie recipe, your favorite meal or drink 32 - Life Lessons 2011 - this year SSD is encouraging you to create a Life's Little Lessons Album! One of the greatest things we can pass along to our loved ones is the stories of lessons we've learned in our own lives, so this year we're challenging you to do a little soul searching and create an album of these little learning experiences. Pick 3 of the 5 topics below and scrap 3 layouts to earn 5 points: 32a - Happiness is a thing to be practiced, like a violin. 32b - Finding fun in simple ways makes the happiest days 32c - Do one thing everyday that makes you happy. 32d - Dare to be different. 32e - Always laugh when you can.

Basically you can design anything you'd like and print it out, then slip it into a frame and add a string with a dry erase marker tied to it. This board would make a great Teacher Appreciation or Mother’s Day gift. Here are some examples from the Babes to inspire you- Celeste Sara and she made another one too! Andrea & a tutorial too! Tracy And examples from other places- Simple Board Ornate Frame Menu Board Flex Tip - Be Creative! If the challenge is asking for a TOP 10 of your favorite TV shows, feel free to scrap your husband's or child's favorite shows instead! If it's asking a question, feel free to ask the question of a loved one and scrap a page for them instead. The only time this wouldn't apply is to your Book of Me album which should be a stunning tribute to YOU! ___________ DON'T FORGET! As you complete layouts for our challenges, you'll be tracking them yourself in one post that you'll update throughout the month. For May, all layouts and points need to be posted by 11:59pm EST at the end of the day on June 1st. If you're joining us for the first time this month, have a look at the amazing portfolio tracker threads from throughout the year to see how it's done! 1) Post to claim your tracker spot for the month. 2) When you finish a layout for a challenge, upload it to the gallery and right click to get the image information for your layout. 3) Return to your tracker spot you claimed in this thread, and click edit to add the image of your layout to your portfolio. You'll want to add your layout in order of the numbered list above and include that number and the points earned above your image. 4) At the very end of your portfolio, please keep a running tally of the total points earned to date. PLEASE NOTE: Portfolio points may NOT be carried over into the following month as each month begins anew with a fresh set of inspiring challenges! Additionally, you may NOT use the same layout for more than one numbered task - each task requires a new layout. Please don't post chatter or comments in this thread as we'd like to keep it clean and easy to check at the end of the month. If you want to give praise to your favorite prompts or layouts, feel free to chatter as much as you like in our General Info & Chatter Forum. Thanks!! Celeste |
