This month we are going to try a little something different. I have three mood boards you can choose from with a list of suggested products to include.We have a spring themed, masculine and fun more pastel themed one. I can't wait to see what you choose and come up with this month! Suggested products: Flowers Wood something (wood grain paper, wood veneers, wood thickers etc) something small (sequins, tiny bling, tiny letter stickers, tiny stamps etc) something soft something WHITE

I'm drawn to the last one with the balloons but I think the masculine one will probably work better with the photos I have to scrap. I think I might see if I can combine the two but that plan is likely to change once I start pulling supplies.

The last one is my immediate choice. I gotta do that. I'm thinking about doing one for the first picture too.

I was actually thinking about making page kits for all 3.... I have to confess I was thinking that too! I love the colours in your kit, especially that aqua to pink uneven chevron paper and the spring green doilies.

I love a good mix of things, I can make so many different pages that way, so its not all same same

Here is my take. I am too lazy to retake photos as we are getting tons of rain and it makes me comfy/cozy aka lazy! Can you guess which I did? I also put my bash in here so I will post that over there! woodgrain letters and paper, white die cuts and paper and letters, cork for something soft, something small are my tiny stamps to layer with this month.

Finally got my kit together - it is huge again. I just cannot seem to make a small kit. I was inspired by the 3rd mood board. Just love the fun celebratory feel. Papers May Build your own kit Embellishments and Alpha's May Build your own kit by DawnMcD, on Flickr

crystalb that second mood board is very clear in the kit you've put together. I like that the doily and butterflies keep it from feeling too masculine. DawnMcD that's definitely a happy looking kit you've put together. I'll be watching to see how you use those giant Heidi Swapp flowers as I still have a few in my stash.

I made my kit earlier this month but have been busy and hadn't gotten around to adding my photo. I used the masculine kit as my inspiration and I've just realised that my photo didn't capture all my papers so the navy papers (which included the navy floral which was my starting point) are not shown.

Love that Chinagirl! Great composition and contrast with pretty colours. I will admit to still be working with April's kit/bash-kit. I didn't get a lot done (nor am I currently) and I don't want to waste the time I spent creating the kit. It's working well! I have a few LOs done that I never shared, but I chose to fight the battle of "get into the scraproom" rather than "photograph your layouts and share" WHY is our hobby sometimes a "battle"? (time. mojo.) Why is SHOPPING for supplies never a "battle"?

Whew. What a month! It's been practically non-stop with so little time for creativity. Finally though, I'm getting around to May challenges. I loved the color palette of the third picture. October Afternoon immediately came to mind. I used five different lines - Daydream, Ducks in a Row, Woodland Park, Midway, and Make it Merry. Flowers - orange enamel flower Wood - butterflies Small - letter stickers, stamp, sequins Soft - orange butterfly White - scalloped chipboard border
