Hi! Welcome to 2023! The challenge team, along with Cheryl Ashcraft is hosting the new monthly challenge series, Finding Me In 2023. The goal of this series is to help you create an album of layouts specifically about you. Each month, a new theme will be presented along with one or more example layouts. By the end of the year, you will have a cover layout, at least 12 layouts, and an ending layout.
Last year, Farrah started a new series of storytelling slow scraps. She dove deep into telling meaningful stories and writing out some of those memories that we had been putting off creating layouts for. This year, Farrah has continued the storytelling slow scraps, and they now coordinate with the Finding Me In 2023 series. This month I’m excited to be helping her by hosting the August Storytelling Slow Scrap. Join us for the chat where we will discuss the prompt and ideas for multiple ways to document stories within the prompts. Then, you will have 48 hours to create your layout...yep...extra time, in case you need to find a photo or rustle up a memory.
This month, we are going to tell a story related to this quote:
“Everything I learned I learned from the movies.” ― Audrey Hepburn
July 2023 | Movie Quotes
You may interpret the prompt in any way that is meaningful to you. Here are a few ideas to get you thinking.
1. Pick a movie that describes your life right now and tell us why it’s so relatable.
2. Tell a story about your favorite movie quote and why it’s so memorable.
3. If you would like to coordinate your LO with this month’s Finding Me in 2023 theme, then describe a movie that you’ve learned a life lesson from.
Instructions
1. Use the theme of learning from movies - and you don't have to put the title on your page, but please make it obvious that it's for this scrap. Feel free to change up the prompt...but it should be clear that it's for this specific scrap.
2. Add a meaningful story - yes...journal! but there isn't a limit or certain amount....it's all you
3. Photos optional
4. Make a page you LOVE.
Here’s my page using Project Mouse (Movie) kit by Sahlin Studio & This is Now Dressed Down template by Fiddle-Dee-Dee. Our family has been watching one movie each week for 25 years. Now that we are down to one son at home and one daughter in town, we don’t do these movie nights as often and I sure do miss them. We watched Venom a few weeks ago and I had to take pictures to capture the moment. I’ve learned that family time is to be cherished!
See how easy it is to complete this slow scrap? And remember that you have 48 hours to create your LO. They are due August 21, 2023, at noon EDT. Please post your completed layout in The Lilypad gallery. GALLERY RULES: Layouts must contain at least 50% TLP products (Templates count as 15%). Uploads must be less than 250k. List all credits; no off-site linking allowed.
