Hi! We are heading into the home stretch for MOC 13. I hope you are having fun, getting some pages done, maybe learning something new, or stretching out of your comfort zone a bit. In the spirit of moving into our next chapter, for this challenge we’ll have a bit of a reflective look back at the past 13 years.
This is a journaling challenge For this challenge, take a few moments and reflect on what were you doing 13 years ago, what were you like, what was life like back in 2013? Where were you? It feels like forever ago and several lifetimes for me. How have those changes in your routine, habits, and/or environment shaped you?
You can explore this question and take it in many different directions. Use photos, or not. You can make this a deep exploration, or keep it more surface level. It is up to you as to how you answer the question of how you have changed over these past 13 years. Your journaling should include a minimum of 5 sentences of how you’ve changed over this time. Photos are optional.
To be honest, I wrote volumes before whittling away to focus on the primary events that resulted in changes in me these last years.
Here is my sample layout:
I used Hear My Voice 09 Changing Collection from Rachel Jefferies & Lynn Grieveson and
Lived In Time Stamps & Titles from Rachel Jefferies for my page
Here are a few jumping off points to consider in framing how you might approach this:
The requirements for this challenge are
Your page must be a new page in order to count for the Month of Challenges. Your page must be posted in three places:
Your page must contain Lilypad product (pages with photos and font only do not count). Product from other stores will not be allowed for MOC; your pages must contain 100% Lilypad product (current or retired product from designers or guest designers presently selling at The Lilypad).

- What was work like 13 years ago, what changes have you experienced through those years?
- How has your family changed?
- Perhaps you have added pets to your life
- What hobbies did you enjoy then; are they still your favorites? Or maybe you’ve added or switched entirely.
- Perhaps you have gone through some physical changes over these years (graying hair anyone?)
- How has your scrapping style and/or process changed?
- Have you moved location or remained in the same community?
- How has your environment changed over the years, still rural? Or have you experienced a growth explosion?
