21 Day Challenge ONE LITTLE WORD

21 DAY CHALLENGE _ ONE LITTLE WORD_

This challenge came to me one night when I was working on a journal.  I wanted to do a different kind of journal, not just a “year in the life of” album again.  I was reflecting on the holidays and the feelings and memories it always brings out in me. 
Our challenge is to take our pre-created journals and for the next 21 days use a keyword and a creative idea and let the two inspire us to look at ourselves, our world around us, the people we love and our place in the midst of it all. 
Day 1 – I thought it fitting with a new challenge to explore the word “NEW”.  Does this word take you back to the first time you got a new car? brought home a new baby? or does it make you think of reinvention, or creating a new you, of trying new things? Does it bring to mind images of Spring? Dew on new flowers and buds on the trees?  Take one of these images and share what it means to you, why that one image or idea stuck out in your mind.
Our creative idea for our first day..Make old tools new.  Yup, break out the deco scissors, punches, corner rounder’s etc and find a new way to use them. 

A few ideas: use your deco scissors to create great layers for a photo mat, use your corner rounder to round only two corners of your picture and add a round embellishment, use your corner rounder to create scallops, take some of your old punches and put them together to create new shapes or punch out shapes them emboss or stitch them down to add a twist.

To take part in this challenge jusy jump right into this forum  :)
