#50 The One | Make a project using mainly 1 designer or brand for 1 point. If your entire project besides essentials (photos, cardstock, adhesive, mixed media) is made using only the one designer or brand, take a bonus point.
#51 The Many | Make a project using more than 5 designers or brands for 1 point. If you can make it to 10, take a bonus point. Excluded: adhesive, cardstock, mixed media and photos. You may include all the rest to count towards your total!
#52 Black Representation | In light of the current events in the US, include black representation in your project in one way or another. Pick a pattern paper with a dark-skinned character, document what you're reading to understand the issue better, scrapbook your favourite black artists, journal about what you can do to be active in this movement of social change, etc. If you're a black person or have black children and are documenting your usual photos, yes, this of course counts. Actually, this is the point.

#53 Celebrate the LIGHT (or mourn the loss of it). In June, the northern hemisphere will have its "longest day" of the year, while at the same time, our friends "down under" will be having the shortest daylight hours of the year. For this challenge, create a project that features LIGHT. It could be starlight or sunbeams or spotlights. Perhaps a glow effect around one element? Lit birthday candles, too. Of course, if you are playing along with the Mega Crop, Christmas lights or a Hanukkah menora definitely count!

#67 Congrats Grad! Most of the graduations in our part of the country are in June . . . our district has gotten very creative with just grad, up to 6 family members and a walk across the stage to shake the principal's hand. Lots of nice decorations up for photo ops as well. Thanks for this one, it ties in really nicely with a challenge I have to do on another site, which is to journal about an event that we have missed due to the pandemic. For me it will be my daughter's uni graduation, which was supposed to have been last month. I have a couple more to add, but I don't know why I'm bothering - I probably won't get around to doing them anyway haha! #68 A Day In The Life - do a page about a day in your life right now. It will be fun to then do another one later in the year when things are (hopefully) back to normal, and compare the two. #69 School Photos - Scrap those school photos that are hiding in the drawer. A bonus point if you scrap your own old school photos. And this one is purely self indulgent because I didn't get to do some of the challenges that I wanted to last month: #70 Challenge Catch Up - Complete any challenge from May that you didn't get around to doing. Points as per the original challenge. |
