    Hello friends! I'm so excited to host the May template challenge! I'm honestly not a huge template scrapper. I don't know why - I always enjoy them when I do use them, I guess I've just never gotten into the habit of using them regularly. But the more I do use them, the more I realize how fun and easy they can be! And it doesn't get much easier than templates from the super sweet, super nice, Sara Gleason!! You can download her contribution here:

    And here's my take - it's actually my second version. I did some twists and rotations and changes to the template, but when I was done, I was missing so much of what I liked from Sara's original, I tried it again, staying a little truer to her design, and I love it so much more!

    As always, please remember the monthly challenge rules: Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread.

    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 guest spot on the Lilypad Creative Team! 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).

    Enjoy your template this month!

    Slight modifications, but used the same basic shape and the idea of rectangles and small circles.

    Silly page! But you have to understand: it is my first "finals week" in 20+ years! And I've been writing a 7 page paper on Jean Piaget. So a bit of brevity was desperately in order! ha.
