Who Are You? Ongoing Challenge

Post by Jessica Mikels »

Image

Hello Sweet Cherries!

I am hosting a NEW ongoing challenge called, 'Who Are You?' You, you, you, you *in the tune by The Who. If you didn't sing it the first time, I'll give you a second to go back and sing it, but this time you must do a little shoulder dance as well! I know I'm a couple days late in introducing this new challenge but it is an ONGOING CHALLENGE so, save your spot and no sweat!

This challenge is to motivate you to create layouts about YOU in your albums. I will be following Kristin's (@aheatfanPicture Yourself Challenge every month. I will take you through my creative process in hopes that you find inspiration and encouragement to keep scrapping your pretty little self! If you haven't been participating in the Picture Yourself Challenge, I highly recommend that you do! Kristin has provided heartwarming and super fun challenges thus far! Personally, I have completed none of her challenges... *hiding behind my laptop now lol Like many of you, I struggle scrapping photos of myself but as Kristin says, "...we, the scrappers are usually behind the camera and often fail to scrap ourselves -this [Picture Yourself Challenge] is a means to remedy that." I will be completing ALL previous challenges as well as the monthly one until I am all caught up. So, if you're just getting started like I am, we can do this together!

I was also inspired by @SandyJay's recent submission to the Picture Yourself Challenge in a Rewind called, Hope (it's a poetic must-read and so beautiful! Go take a look if you haven't done so already). Sandy's journaling really tugged at my heart! I decided to start a whole new project and fill a brand new album all about me. I can pass down to my girls to help them answer a question they may have about me one day, "Who are you?".

This challenge is meant to:
- Keep us accountable of scrapping photos of ourselves
- Encourage one another to scrap photos of ourselves &
- Inspire each other to scrap photos of ourselves

* combining is allowed
* surprise rewards randomly awarded to participants at random (meaning not every month)

Pretty simple I hope! Can't wait to see more of you💕

Hats Off
Image

September - Fad/Trend as a child/adult.
Forever Young

October - A day in the life.

November - Accomplishment you're proud of.

December - A photo of you that you're happy with.

2024
January - Word of focus/inspiration
Myself
Image

February - Something you can't live without (object/habit).

I’ve been trying to do more of this! I’ve got an 8x8 album I’m doing a weekly highlight of for 2024 & I also have a 12x12 album to put random memories in outside my regular albums. Definitely a good motivation to do more for this one in addition to my mini!

here’s one I did!!! photo is of me & my little man on my first official Mothers Day in 2019. I even included way more journaling than I normally do in the spirit of the “who am I?” Prompt!

I love this idea and need to scrap some older photos of me because well, 1) I'm younger and 2) I also have stories I want to share with my children and grandchildren.

Ok, I'm game!  I really do need to do this.  My mom & dad passed away when I was 35 and I wish I had more information about them.  I know I have forgotten so much.  So saving my spot!  Thanks!!  I know this won't be easy

I like this Chris, who “were” we when we were younger?  I found and old photo of myself and my girls were very intrigued…lol.  Yes, I was young once!
