January 1: "Brought to You by the Letter ..." (Journaling Challenge)

this is mine - i went with D as well and mixed and matched to try to incorporate some of my fave Dec things into the page (the paper clip and chalky look is to represent school finishing and the gold burst behind the D alpha is the summer sun here in December etc) and i used my avatar as that's me in front of the tree last xmas so it seemed fitting

 

Thanks a lot for this first and so inspiring challenge, Julie!
Here's my take

 

Brought to you by the letter....C
My first LO in a very very long time, hope met all the requirements. Really struggle with journaling so found this challenging.

 

Thanks so much Lorry.

 

The Letter V

 

OMG I think I'm going to be sick I'm so nervous lol, it's ridiculous! I've written out the journaling in the layout description....

 

The MOC is going to be a half MOC for me because I'll be traveling out of the country starting the 13th, but let's see if I can keep up these first two weeks!

 

Thanks for the challenge, Julie! Here's mine:

 

Not sure why the shadow on the "A" looks like jagged gray line, but here is my layout.

 

Here is mine...what a tough #1 challenge!

 

And the fun begins... Here is mine:

 

I chose the letter C because it is the beginning of my daughter's name.

 

Not as easy as I thought it would be but it was fun. Any journaling challenges really do challenge me. Thanks for starting off making me think!!

 

I almost forgot to put it in this thread too!

 

Great to be back at TheLilyPad! It's been a few years!!!

 

Fun Challenge! I chose G. I love the way the lowercase g looks. And then my boyfriend, Gayle's initial. <3 This layout took forever though! My G collage - I had that in mind since I read the challenge. I started at 1pm ish and now it's 6pm. I really need to speed up my scrapping. I thought it would take an hour, two most. ACK!

 

My Letter is M:
