    Welcome to the July Story Telling Challenge with Lynn Grieveson Designs. You have a chance to win $10 to Lynn Grieveson's store just by playing along with our challenge this month.

    One of the things I love the most about scrapbooking, is being able to tell stories. Stories that tell us what happened, and stories that give insights into the person(s) on the photos.

    There are lots of ways of telling those stories, and this month I'd like to challenge you to use personal quotes as part of the story telling. I'd like you to include something the person your page is for/about said. Include at least one photo either of the person speaking, and/or what they are speaking about. You can add any other photos you like.

    Here's a page I created quoting my daughter's statement after she saw the desk of a late famous writer. I've used a speech bubble, but you don't have to.

    To recap:
    1. Quote something that the person your page is for, or about said.
    2. Use at least 1 photo of the person, or what the person is talking about. (Other photos optional)

    Rules:
    1. Please use 75% Lynn Grieveson Designs (including freebies, retired goodies and currently in store)
    2. Please upload to Lynn's Gallery at The Lilypad following The Lilypad's rules.
    and then add it into this thread too, so we can leave you some love and count your entry.
    3.You have from now on the 1st of July until midnight on the 31st July 2021.
    If you have any questions or need to reach me please tag me @Angela Toucan

    Hope this counts as it is not a quote, but lyrics from a song that the cousins sang on the wedding

    I'm so glad I got to use this photo of my granddaughter - she tried to erase it after I took it.

    I had such a fun time with this challenge - thanks!
    One of the albums on my "to-do" list is a quote book of "Moo-isms," (our daughter's nickname is Moo).

    This was a perfect challenge for me - the story is all on the page. But the handwritten quote is the star. Thanks for hosting this one!
