* CAPTURE A PHRASE OR STORY *

DateThursday, July 1, 2010 at 8:00AM

This challenge is to capture a phrase or story that your loved one shared often. For some, this will jump out at you with an obvious choice. For others, maybe not so much. Regardless, stop and think about things that were said, okay?

Here's Sherry's take on this one:

Here's one that I actually made for an earlier challenge but thought fit nicely here:

And here's the one I created for this challenge:

Please join us! We'd love to see your take on this challenge. Post yours online and then add the link in the comments of this post, before the next challenge goes up if possible (though later is always welcome as well!). The stories behind these layouts will go up in the coming days...

Now, for a quick "housekeeping" item...Apologies aplenty but I've shut down the message board feature here. (Okay, technically, I've disabled the link for now and will be taking down the message board as soon as I figure out how to do that, lol.) I've been having significant issues with spam and can't seem to find a way to deal with it. Also, I've totally been slacking and activity on the board hasn't been much in any case. :(

Well, please enjoy a safe and fabulous July 4th weekend, okay? Do you have any big plans?
