September 1st - 30th: About Me Challenge {Struggle In Your Life}

[Natascha]

This month's All About Me challenge is a pretty hard one, for me though! I want you to scrap a layout about a struggle in your life. It can be anything like for example your past, the present, but maybe also about your weight problems... scrap about it! It can be a page with one picture of more or just journaling :wink3:

I can't wait to see what you come up with!

Here is my layout about my struggle in life, my past and my weight problems...
Kit used: Precious by Ruth Melody Designs

Very interesting challenge. We don't talk enough about us in our layouts. You say it's OK to make a page about our past. It could be about our childhood, right?

If a kit is still available for purchase in the store but will be retiring Soon, is it still eligible to be used for a challenge?

I purchased 2 really pretty kits that are going to be retired and I would like to use them if I can.

Does anyone know?? :wink3:

[Joyce Paul]

If the kits are still available in the store, it's OK to use them! :wink2:
