Flasher's Merry Month Of May Challenge

Post by Flasher »

While strolling through the park one day, in the merry, merry month of May . . .

This Challenge will draw inspiration from the Month of MAY!  Below is a graphic which details some fun, interesting facts about the month of May!  All you need to do is choose something to inspire your project.  I will be very flexible here.  It could be the birthstone or the flower.  Maybe you choose Gemini because you have twins!  Or perhaps, your granddaughter's name is Maia, which refers to the Greek Goddess May is named for.  Or maybe you choose a word from the personality description.  Maybe you know someone who is an optimist!  I'm sure you can find something.  Here is your inspiration:
Image
And here is my layout using the emerald birthstone/color green (although my scanner has really altered the color) for my inspiration:

ONE RANDOMLY CHOSEN WINNER WILL RECEIVE THE FREE SPIRIT BUNDLE GENEROUSLY PROVIDED BY CATHERINE POOLER:

RULES:
1.  One entry per participant.
2.  Challenge is open to paper and digital scrappers, layouts/cards/journals.
3.  Post your project to this thread.
4.  NO COMBINING with any other NSD or Message Board Challenges EXCEPT the 25 Item Challenge and the Bi-Monthly Inspiration Challenge. 
5.  Must be a new creation!
6.  Entries must be posted to this thread by Friday, May 17 at 11:59 PM, EDT.
7.  You MUST have fun!

If you have any questions, please ask away!
OCD is not an adjective.  It is not a personality quirk. It is not synonymous with being organized.  It is a complex and debilitating mental health illness that affects people of all ages and walks of life, and is defined by the presence of unwanted, intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions. 💙 I am an OCD warrior and I fight for my son. 💙

This is mine - celebrating my daughter's birthday which is May 22nd in spite of it being the least common birthdate of them all.

My son was born on May 31 and is a Gemini, so I used some photos from last year of his new hairstyle.

I chose to scrap a picture of myself.  I consider the month of May to be all about me.  Between Mother's Day, my birthday and my favorite color being green, it's the best time of the year!

Here's mine, this was fun!  I drew inspiration from a few things, the color green, Hug your Cat Day and National Smile Month with my sentiment.  This kitty is smiling in the grass ready to pounce! Thanks for the challenge!
