Happy Monday everyone! I hope that everyone had a nice weekend, and happy Family Day to my fellow Canadians :)! I’m not planning on doing anything but scrap and shop today, so it’s going to be a great day for me!
Speaking of scrapping, we have a whole new challenge for you today! Each month we’re going to have a journalling challenge, whether it be a prompt or using a journal spot, journalling on a path, etc.
This month I thought I would do a “Love at First Sight” prompt.
I want to see layouts that feature something you loved from the moment you saw it. This could be ANYTHING – it doesn’t have to be a person (because hey – not everybody loved their SO the first time they saw them, haha). I’m thinking ultrasound pics, maybe your spouse (if it really was love at first sight), perhaps a new puppy/kitten/pet, or maybe your new camera, Nook/Kindle, a killer pair of heels, your KitchenAid stand mixer… lol! There is no wrong thing to scrap!
Here is some inspiration from the team:
Laura used Momma’s Boy to make this page about her laptop love…
Sherly scrapped about a favorite gift (using Magical Vacation):

Janie made hers about a project that she adores (also using Momma’s Boy):

And Rebecca scrapped her love of iced coffee (using Penelope):

So there you go! You have until February 28th to upload your layout (in whichever gallery you choose). Please leave us a comment with a link to your layout. On March 1, we will announce a winner (who will win a solo kit of their choice). Have fun!!
And now for our winner of our template challenge! I loved all the layouts submitted, and am glad that I use a random number generator so I don’t have to choose one myself! Here is the result:

Avalon4 is our winner with this layout:
