July Journaling Challenge

Hi Everyone! Time to Journal and I want to know all about you! I know - it's a hard things to do... write, and even harder, to write about ourselves. We can make it fun!

For our July Challenge this month, we are going to start with our names. There is so much to our name, it's power, humor, defining, and loving as well! I have had many nick names or alter egos - Jenn, Jenny, Ifer, Smiggles, are just to name a few!

For this challenge, I want you to choose a name that you go by - it can be your real name, nick name or a name you go by with others. I want you to tell me about it. Make me laugh, share where it stems from, or how it was chosen or why you might be called by that name. There are so many possibilities! You are to include at least 7 sentences about this name you choose. No other requirements for the layout.

I cannot wait to see what you create! I really can't wait to read what you share!
Here is my layout:



Remember our monthly challenge rules:
Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Galleryand then linked to the July 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. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

 

Any name that you go by would work, including last names. I have college friends that still refer to me by my last name too!

 

I would like it to be you. We so often forget ourselves in our own scrapping.

 

I'm really LOVING reading about you all! A little glimpse of your life that I wouldn't otherwise know!
