Hello and welcome to the February Journaling Challenge, which is also the first challenge I have ever hosted!
Since February is the month of love, what better month is there to tell your love story? For my family, this is the most important story there is to tell, because it is the beginning of us as a family. It is where our story begins.
You can begin your love story wherever you want: when you first laid eyes upon each other, when you first met, when you first danced, or first kissed. Or you can begin your story on the day you were married. Maybe your story begins after your first fight – when you knew you didn’t want to be without him/her. It’s your story; only you can decide where it should begin.
Before you begin, ask yourself: What is the story I want to leave behind? That is the story I want you to tell.
Monthly Challenge Rules:
* This Challenge will run from February 1st through February 28th, 2011 at 11:59pm (GMT). If you upload your layout later, you will not receive any points.
* By completing this challenge, you will earn one point!
* You must use at least 75% MScraps product. (Retired products and Quickpages do not count!)
* Each layout will only count for one point (meaning you cannot use the same layout for more than 1 challenge).
* Maximum points for each individual challenge is one point, no matter how many layouts you make for it, unless otherwise stated.
* Upload your layout to the Journaling Challenge Gallery (http://www.mscraps.com/galleri/showgallery.php?cat=30) and post your layout (image) + link in this Thread
* Keep track of your points in the Challenge Points Thread (http://www.mscraps.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=111). It is entirely your responsibility to keep your challenge points up-to-date.
* Layouts & Photos that are not listed in your Challenge Points Thread (http://www.mscraps.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=111) will not be counted towards your point total.
* An important rule: Please put the journaling underneath your page so that it will be easier for everyone to read.
And most importantly - HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't wait to see what you all come up with. Have fun and good luck to everyone that plays along.
Now for some inspiration. Here is my love story:
