Hello! I'm happy to host this month's journaling challenge and hope you will join me. This month I'd like to spend some time thinking about all of the things we, ourselves, can accomplish. We all have a lot going on and I think it is important to take some time to acknowledge what we achieve and feel good about our accomplishements - so this month's challenge is to journal about something you did that are proud of. Challenge: 1. Create a layout with journaling about something that you have done that are proud of. 2. Journaling should be a minimum of 5 complete sentences. Background for my layout: I have always had a hard time "patting myself on the back" and the past few years I've realized how harming that is to my psyche, so I've worked hard at recognizing my own self worth and allowing myself to be kind to me. Being kind to others - no problem! Being kind to me? Uh, not so easy. So making that shift in my awareness and thinking has been is big deal in improving my mindset, and I'm proud of myself for working on shifting my inner voice to one of kindness. And here is the layout I created, journaling about I am proud of myself with the self-kindness work I am doing: Credits: Sabrina's Creations Kindness, Mommyish Bee-utiful Day 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 June 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 $50 gift certificate from The Lilypad! 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 (June 4th). Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).
@lcpereyra are you ok with a photoless page? I have an amazing idea brewing that I'd like to journal about
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for. I see most of the other layouts are more personal. But I am kinda proud of this
