MAY CHALLENGES

I have found so many awesome challenge layouts that I have trouble narrowing the monthly/weekly challenges down to 4.  That is why I snuck in a fifth challenge.  There aren't enough weeks in a month or months in the year to use them all.  I know, I know.  I could quit collecting them and just use the ones I have already collected, but how much fun would that be?   I hope you enjoy these.  Thank you to all the talented bloggers and Pinterest members for sharing these great layouts.


Challenge #1 - a mood board that is very different from my usual picks.   I LOVE colour and that is usually what attracts me to the mood boards I post.  I have no idea why; but I've always been attracted to hot air balloons.  They are so colourful, often seen as whimsical and to me they emote light heartedness, a sense of freedom and adventure.

Challenge #3 comes from Alda Stevens at the Flying Unicorn, one of the blogs I follow.  You can buy kits from her store (the link is at the top right on her blog), join in on her challenges or just get inspiration from her wonderful blog:

Challenge #4 - Am I allowed to squeeze two mood boards into one month?   I also have a thing for sunny beach scenes, bright yellow and beautiful ocean blues.  As you can see, this tongue-in-cheek mood board was a September challenge of Sassy Scrappers.  Great blog... hop on over to take a look!
