by beachlover
UPDATE: PLEASE RECHECK THE LIST YOU HAVE!!! I HAD 2 #'S MISSING AND TOWARDS THE END TWO WERE THE SAME!!! YOU MAY NEED TO UPDATE YOU LIST TO THE ONE BELOW SO YOU DO NOT MISS ANYTHING!!! SORRY FOR THE MIX UP!!!
These next two months will be surrounded by All THINGS SUMMER!
There will be 30 prompts, and you will have 2 months to complete them. Each layout MUST BE new, but you can combine with other monthly challenges if you want. What you can not do is post a layout in more than one prompt. Meaning, if I ask for circles, and you use several pattern papers, you can not also use that layout for a prompt asking for multiple pattern papers. If you have any questions, please feel free to pm me.
For this month, you have until August 31st at 11:59pm to complete the list. All those who finish all prompts will be in a drawing by random.org to win a $10.00 GC to ACOT. Since it is running 2 months, I chose to up the prize a bit. Most important, have fun, it is all about getting those pages done and keep the creative juices flowing.
Post your layouts in this thread, save your spot! AND HAVE FUN!!
