May Journaling Challenge

Hiya everyone. Happy May.

For this month's journaling challenge I want you to use the phrase:

"This makes me so happy" as a prompt.

I was putting all my pieces together from the Facebook hop and this tag by Lauren Grier really stuck out to me. I remembered this past weekend how happy I was wrapping thread and even felt a little silly thinking about how happy it made me. It wasn't for any particular reason. Maybe it was the colors, the patterns it was making, or knowing what it was all for. I got to relax, not worry about too much, and just work on the task at hand. I snapped a photo when I finished and am so thankful. It reminds me to enjoy little moments like this. When I'm not having to worry about technology or chores and can just take a quiet moment to myself.

I can't wait to see how this prompt inspires your journaling. It can be something big or small. Old or new. Anything! Here is my page to give you some inspiration:



Please remember and follow the Lilypad Challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% of Lilypad product. You should post your layout in this thread, as well as in the May Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked!

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 all 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 six challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the seventh 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).
