May 2024 Picture Yourself Challenge

Post by aheatfan »

Posting early... before all the festivities of NSD start.  

Welcome to the 11th month of this challenge, I am not sure how many months this will run but it has been fun so far. I love looking at your unique stories about YOU. If you are new here, this challenge came about after a conversation with my 22 year old son about a certain event and how I did not want to include a "bad' picture of myself. He then asked that I include more of myself in our books. It occurred to me that we, the scrappers are usually behind the camera and often fail to scrap ourselves - this is a means to remedy that. 

Sooooo....in light of that, this challenge is to get YOU in your albums, your kids albums, your grandkids albums, they want to see YOU!!! 

This month I am keeping it simple since we will all be busy busy scrapping NSD Challenges.  Since this month features Mother's Day, we will be celebrating all things MOM.  Whatever that means to you. It could be you with your Mom, with your grandma, your own babies or even your furbabies.  I am leaving this one way open to interpretation.   As always, your layout MUST have a picture of yourself on the layout.  Here are my examples:

Full disclosure....these layouts are not new (busy working on my NSD timeslot) BUT YOURS MUST BE!!

ImageImage

Must be a new layout, paper or digital, single or double page. Layouts only.
You can combine with ONE other challenge that allows it. May NOT combine with any NSD Challenges. 
Limit ONE entry.   MUST have a photo of you on the layout somewhere. 
Please link your work here. Deadline is May 31, 2024. A random winner from all entries done correctly will be selected for a $5.00 ACOT gift card from me.

I love your example layouts. Every month I say I'm gonna do this challenge but haven't gotten to it recently but wanted to do this one before NSD otherwise I prob wouldn't get to it! So for me right now "mom" to me is our 4 cats. My kids are all in their 20's and independent of course. But the past couple years we've had a shake up with cats. Ideally we like to have 2 cats. But we had 3, then lost 2 in the past few years, then got another, then another, then unexpectedly another in Feb. Three of them are under 2 years old so they are pretty much my focus all day every day just like little kids lol.

I finally had the pictures and time to do one of these challenges!  :)  This is my Mom and I in the late 1960s early 1970s.  I combined this with the Grab 5 challenge.

I wasn't sure I'd be able to submit a LO for this challenge. I work chronologically and I wasn't good about picturing myself in 2010-2012 where I'm currently working. I found this picture from an event I took my daughter to with some dance friends. I loved surprising her friends with VIP Meet & Greet passes - the excitement was so high! I also love exposing my daughter to everything arts related - theater, dance, exhibits, etc.

This LO was also submitted in the Taylor Swift challenge this month.
