    Hi everyone!! I'm back with this month's AJ Challenge. Every once a year I will host a challenge that is crazy and out of the norm. It's called Mission Impossible. However, I thought I will postpone to a later date and come up with something less intense / crazy!! LOL!!

    Before I proceed, this is challenge is a CHALLENGE!! It's meant to get you out of your norm and start thinking out of the box. This is an opportunity for us to learn from one another. Feel free to jump in and support each other. Eg : if you have not done extraction and need a tutorial. Just ask and I/ the members will be glad to assist you. I do not want to be rigid therefore the end result of your page can be ANY STYLE you want it to be!!!

    Note :
    I plan my challenge HOWEVER anything CAN CHANGE!! I am spontaneous therefore be warn that you MIGHT get an UNEXPECTED INSTRUCTION TO THE CHALLENGE!!! There will be times when your brain will tell you the followings :
    Li Li is crazy, this challenge is crazy, what is Li Li trying to do to me, what am I scrapping, why must I have chopsticks? when do I scrap?

    STAY CALM, PLAY AND HAVE FUN!!

    PLEASE PM ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. Sometimes I miss out on the notifications.

    I choose palette one, so I am assuming stash items should match our color scheme?

    Although, Lili, sometimes it's what you don't say that's important....

    My "stuff" is set aside. I'm going with the 1st set of colors. My full faced extracted photo has bangs, but I figured I could hide them somehow. Ready for the next step. :-)

    I think the key word was "human" in her question. Can it be another kind of animal?
