    Hi everyone and welcome to the May challenges. This month's style challenge is all about the photo - big and bold. Sometimes you have a photo that just needs to be the center of attention, and needs to be big! So this month your main photo must be at least half of your page (it can be bigger). You can have additional photos, but you must have one photo that takes up at least half of your page.

    Here is my sample page for a little inspiration:

    As always, please remember the monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product (eligible product can be current or retired product from resident designers, or guest designer product that is currently in the TLP store). Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the May Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread (please use the share BB IMG code found on the right side in the gallery).

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    I'm looking forward to seeing your pages!

    I love big photos! I've done entire albums in this style and they are so awesome! Here's my submission

    Dh and I grew up in this area an my parent's former property backs up to where this warehouse was. My mom is almost 96 and we just moved her to assisted living 18 month ago and sold the house about a year ago. Fortunately, their neighborhood was spared, but places I've known my entire life are just gone. I felt the need to document it somehow, since it was shared history and we go up there several times a year.

    My picture is a screenshot of an instagram post, so the "picture is actually bigger than just my son" hope this works for being 1/2 the size
