January 25 - Art Doll (Style Challenge)
Oh, man, did I love this challenge!! I was SOO AFRAID of it, but I am egotistically going to say that I rocked it!!

I chose "Spring" for my layout inspiration and have been listening to it for an hour and a half!

I wanted to convey a feeling of fashion, of bright color, and happy, forward thinking!

January 26 - Tradition/Heritage Journaling Challenge


Journaling:

The year is 1917. My Great Grandparents moved to Montana from Canada to the county of Stillwater to a small, largely abandoned town named Nora, which was basically just a Mercantile, a Railroad station, and a few homes. They purchased the Mercantile, and all the buildings outright and renamed the town Wheat Basin.

By 1918, my great grandmother Frances was the Postmistress of the town, the family ran the Mercantile, and Great Grandpa Edward was the barber. Soon this little town grew and now had a developed main street with a grain elevator, a bank, stores, a dance hall, and lumber yards. The town was primarily an agricultural community with a stop and depot, and as my Grandma Peggy told us, it was a wonderful place to live. She grew up on a farm, and had many friends.

When Great Grandpa Edward decided to leave the town, she was very sad to leave it behind, but looked forward to a new life in Salinas, California, where the winters wouldn’t be so bone chilling cold. In 1936, the USPS closed the post office, the town soon followed.

Today, Wheat Basin is a ghost town, with little remaining that is easily visible except a number of concrete building foundations and depressions where buildings once stood. The streets and main road are also still present. The last surviving structure was the Grain Elevator, which burned down in 1997. A sign placard indicates the site of the former town. My mother and her cousin Barbara took a trip to see the town and took pictures of the empty lots, and the last remaining street sign.

January 27 - Combine Six Designers Random Challenge

full


https://the-lilypad.com/forum/galleries/moc27_6designer_pachimac.335097/

I did this for the 6 Designer challenge, and the slow scrap as well.

The name of the band is "Holes and Hearts", because the boy in th e front was born with a hole in his heart and they are so grateful that he survived, and he had open heart surgery a few years ago to finally correct it. Thus...the heart motif as well.

Designers Credits:
1. Pink Reptile Designs "Today" wood heart, paint splotches recolored to red.

2. Little Butterfly Wings - "Carpe Diem" sneakers sticker, enjoy today word art, "Laugh Often" star, chipboard heart, this pic flair, pink button, "Maker's Gonna Make" background colorized black,

3. Forever Joy "Road Trip" brown buttons

January 31 - Then and Now Challenge

*** Corrected Layout in gallery, click to see. For some reason the new version is not propogating into the threads****


And with this, I complete the MOC 6!

Journaling:
It is hard to believe that so many years have passed between these two photos. Our “Then” picture was taken in 1968, when we still lived in Santa Ana. I have very little memory of this house, or this particular Christmas. My memories seem to start in 1969 when we moved to the house I grew up in. My sister is seven years older than I am, and my brother is 18 months older. We grew up in a pretty much normal suburban environment - school, church, lazy summers by the pool. The “Now” picture was taken in 2016 and it was at a not so fun location: our mother’s burial. It’s amazing to me how fast time has flown from being those tow head blondes with nothing to worry about except what games we were going to play today to the three grown siblings with families and responsibilities. We are all different people with one common thread: Blood. We love fiercely, and will always be family no matter how much time passes by before we see each other in person again. I live in Las Vegas and they are both in California, so visits are few and far between lately.
