    READY?

    JOURNALING CHALLENGE
    Journal a saying, motto, punchline, a phrase,
    or words that you, your family, or that you express often.

    the Anne of Alamo TWIST
    NO PHOTOGRAPHS may BE USED

    here are some older examples:
    "Freeze the Worm!"
    [​IMG]
    Or
    "Pickle Juice"
    [​IMG]
    and a new one I did for this month's challenge
    "Lifetime Supreme"
    whenever we go somewhere and get all green lights, my boys put one arm up (like a super hero flying) and yell
    Lifetime Supreme
    [​IMG]
    the journaling challenge is
    1. THE Actual phrase and

    2. explaining the phrase and
    why it is important, funny or
    just what it means to you.

    the Anne of Alamo TWIST:
    NO PHOTOGRAPHS may BE USED
    nope, none, zilch, zero
    only elements, paints, words, etc...
    no photographs.

    I will leave you love and sweetness, and check! bhwhahhahahah


    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).

    Oh my gosh, I was wondering what part of the US uses this saying. It took me a minute, I get it now. Lol.

    Thanks for this awesome challenge. I didn't think I'd ever make a layout about THAT turkey.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this @AnneofAlamo
    so I don't know if you can read this - but we used to tell each other to not be a hedgehog - meaning to quite bristling when someone was just trying to help - we have been through a lot of stress with frequent culture changes and all - anyway, that has morphed in the last year to "Put your Prickles down" which is our way of saying - I am trying to help you, not make fun of you - I am on your side, we are in this together, now cooperate! It makes us laugh anyway and lessens the tension - these little cacti reminded me so much of it even before I saw this prompt!

    Aaargh! @AnneofAlamo which one to choose?

    @mimisgirl we have one very similar. PINEAPPLES! If we are talking and people are getting wound up about the subject or just generally being disagreeable someone will shout PINEAPPLES! and the rule is that the convo is over and we change the subject.
