May's Number Challenge is Up with a TWIST!!

[PatinParis]

May comes and for most of us brings with it flowers, newly hatched insects, green grass and leaves and the joy of knowing spring is here and summer is coming!!

I am taking over this challenge starting with this month and am going to add a different twist to it. Read on....

As I live in France the new twist will be sharing something different each month about where you live, either your country, your culture, your customs, your holidays, something that will help us all learn more about another place other than where we are living. This month will be about flowers and/or insects where you live.

Requirements for this months Challenge:

1 page layout
2 photos (flowers and/or insects typical for your area this time of year)
3 different papers used "somehow" on your page
4 or more lines of journaling telling us about your photos
5 elements, all different, no less no more.

50% or more of your items need to be from Deco-Pages designers. In your description area you need to list the requirements for 3 and 5, giving credit to designers at the same time. Example:

3 papers: red with flowers by...., white with dots by...
yellow one cut/torn for..... is by....
5 elements: button by...; ribbon by... and so on.
For 4, please post your journaling in the description for ease of reading

Link your gallery layout back in this thread, I will respond here, leave love on your page and send you links for the kit I have created for your efforts. We will continue to use the "main" numbers gallery instead of monthly, here!! Remember... This is a specific challenge and all requirements must be met to receive the kit.

This kit can now be found in the store!!


I am really looking forward to learning more about where you live and seeing your layouts. Have fun!!

What is a challenge if not a "challenge"!! I am going to continue with the "twist" every month... different things, but helping us all to learn about each other's area where they live! I also want to push the limits a little for you all to think outside the box...grow in your scrapping. It can be hard, but it helps us grow and learn!
