    Helllooooo August!

    For this month all I could think about was how busy the end of summer always feels (and I don't even have kids yet!) I always tell myself to slow down and relax... so this got me thinking... I want a page that gives me that feeling.

    For your August Inspiration Challenge, I want you to be inspired by relaxing. It could be a photo that makes you relaxed, a quote, or the overall feel of the page.

    Here is my relaxing moment with my pups:

    Please remember the monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread.

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a guest spot on the Lilypad Creative Team! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    I can't wait to see how you all relax!

    We visited with relatives this past weekend. Ended up on their pontoon boat for a gorgeous evening cruise on their pontoon. I used the PRISMA app on the photo for a sketchy look.

    Relaxing before the baby is born, nothing else I can do while I wait. Love feeling him move in my belly, also very relaxing.
