    January 21: Time capsule/letter to future self

    Hello and welcome to Day 21 of MOC 11 - Coming Home! I am hosting this journaling style challenge and can't wait for you to join us. Our theme this year is "coming home" which makes me think of the future and coming back home. Whether I revisit my old home, or my children come home at some point in the future, I'd love to be able for all of us to look back and remember the good times. For this challenge, we are going to write a letter to our future selves (or someone else) and give a glimpse into what is going on right now. Let's create a sort of time capsule of the now for our future selves.

    Requirement for this page:
    1. You must create your a new layout containing a letter to someone in the future. This can be yourself, or a loved one.
    2. You must include some journaling about what is going on right now that you'd want to look back and remember.
    3. You may include photos, information, quotes, or anything else you think the future reader would like to know.

    For my example, I want to look back and remember things going on in the news, the prices of gas and milk and eggs and where the world stands. I went with an infographic style layout.

    Your page must be a new page in order to count for the Month of Challenges. Your page must be posted in three places:
    1. Uploaded to the TLP Gallery (not an outside hosting site).
    2. Posted in your page thread you created in the MOC Layouts Folder. You should have one post per completed challenge page. If you complete all 31 challenges, your thread should contain 31 posts. Please do not comment in the participants’ page threads so we can keep them clean.
    3. Posted in this thread. People can comment here if they wish.
    Pages must contain 100% current or retired Lilypad product from current resident TLP designers. Please list the kit and designer in your credits. Pages with just photos and/or journaling do not count toward your MOC pages.

    reserved for questions

    Does the letter have to be to yourself or a family member in the future? Or can it be anyone in the future?
    ----It can be to anyone

    Does my journaling for your challenge need to be readable?

    ----Nope....I trust you
