Welcome to Lynn’s May 2026 challenge. This month we are looking back on and creating a layout about our family history. It’s largely about a small story that sheds light on your family or an individual ancestor. Please choose one that allows you to include at least one photo.
What are some interesting things about that person? What were they like? Where did they live? What career? How many, if any, spouses and children, if any. Any special interaction you had with him or her. Just make that person come alive to us, the audience.
Your layout must include both journaling (at least 5 sentences) and at least one photo.
Here is an example of an unsolved mystery regarding my own maternal grandfather along with a photo of him and of a newspaper clipping.
And here are some from Lynn's Creative team:
from Dady:
from janedee:
from mcurtt:
from Iowan:
Have fun creating a layout and maybe learning more about the person featured. Hint: family members may have stories to share that give you new insights.
Challenge Requirements:
· Create a new scrapbooking page with the above rules.
· Use a minimum of 75% Lynn Grieveson Products.
· Post your page to Lynn Grieveson's Gallery and then come back to this thread and post a link to your layout. (Please link your thread to your gallery image as it helps us leave love on your layout and validate your project).
· Please remember to follow Gallery Guidelines and list your credits in the gallery posting.
· No double-dipping…your layout must be created for this challenge only, no others.
· This challenge will remain open until midnight (EST) May 31, 2026.
