    Welcome to our series of weekly focus challenges here at The Lilypad, happening the third week of the month from May through September! These are meant to be yet another avenue for you to get motivated, be creative, learn a new aspect of scrapping, and get that backlog of photos and memories into some tangible format! There are no hard and fast rules; for this series we simply ask that you follow the general Lilypad gallery guidelines: Your pages must contain at least 50% TLP product (current or retired product from the current resident designers), be less than 250k, list your credits, and not link off-site. Easy, right? We'll have a new challenge for you each day, Monday - Saturday (everyone needs one day a week off, right?), posted in the morning-ish hours of eastern time. There are no deadlines for posting, no "rules" to follow (other than the gallery rules, see above), and no "right or wrong" way to complete these challenges. You can do them daily, or as your schedule allows. Total flexibility!

    We hope you have fun with this extra set of challenges, and maybe even learn a thing or two along the way! As always, feel free to post here, or message me, with any questions you have!

    Cool beans! Now I just gotta find the time to do some of the other challenges. I always mean to, but life gets into the way. Oh well.

    What a great week of challenges in May. I appreciated the diversity of the challenges which stretched me and caused me to finally scrap some life experiences that don't always make our scrapbooks. And then, of course, I had to have fun with at least one and do an "off the wall" art journaling page.

    Looking forward to what the coming months bring with this Weekly Focus set of challenges.

    This is great! When I finish the first 7-8 at the beginning of the month, I often stop. But this keeps things going!

    Here is mine, not my normal style, but I like the results. I used "posterize", and masked it over a sort of painted edge background I made myself, and added a paint brush style overtop.

    I really like that now I can find the techniques I forget to use all in one place here! Thanks!

    I'm glad this is continuing through September. I really like the ones I've seen. Just haven't managed to scrap much since early May. I'm missing it!
