    Remember back to mid high (jr high) and high school?
    Bad hair cuts, embarrassing moments and just all around
    what was I thinking moments?
    So, let your memory go down that awkward time and hey
    lets giggle and scrap it!

    Muse:
    verb: to reflect deeply on something
    noun: the source of artistic inspiration

    I went home to my parents last year and took a zillion photos of pictures in the albums, and oh the awkwardness of my 7th grade photo. I remember hating it then, and now!
    so I went art doll inspiration.

    You may create any style of layout (ie. clean and simple, artsy, pocket style etc.) you wish, with or without photos. Create any size page you wish. This is for everyone, so have fun and see where the inspiration takes you. If you want all 3 Muses ( 1 for each week this month) on one page that's perfectly ok or you can make 3 separate pages!! It's totally up to you! :) Sorry only 3 this month due to insane NSD weekend fun!

    **Stay tuned next Saturday for the next challenge to May's Monthly Muse**

    Please post your layout to the Art Journaling Gallery HERE prior to May 31, 2019 and then post it in this thread by copying the code (at the right of your gallery image) from the box under "Share BB Code".

    We will draw a winner at the beginning of next month for a coupon!! You can use any products in The Lilypad store or retired products from current Lilypad designers, (just make sure you follow our gallery guidelines)

    We always thought, from the time he was born, that our DGS looked like his mother's dad. This exercise brought out a whole new thought. HE LOOKS LIKE ME!!!!!!! I never saw me in any of my kids or grandkids before. I know he would rather look like his grandfather than a grandMOTHER, so I don't think I'll say anything to him, but it will be interesting to watch as he grows to see if he continues to take after me. I'm STUNNED! Thank you so much for this challenge.

    Gosh, everyone looks GORGEOUS compared to me. In case you can't read the journaling, I will include it in my gallery post. Mom loved to decorate me, it is obvious...

    You were gorgeous, too! You mom did like to decorate you, I agree - especially "the signature bow". You just gave me a good chuckle. :hehe
