    Beautiful board! Here's my take on the challenge. :)
    [​IMG]
    My goal is to give myself Me Time in 2019. I want to set a goal not only to let myself have time for me, but to teach my children that it's okay for me to take that time.
    1. The Droste effect of the woman holding a frame of herself holding a frame etc.
    2. having a black and white photo
    3. The color palette (I used Jan 2019 BYOC products to make sure they matched lol!)
    4. writing on the photo, though I used a typewriter font instead of a more natural handdrawn look because I wanted it to fit on the Kindle cover. :) But I did love the handwritten look of the background paper.
    5. the beautiful handpainted look of the small almost-square navy/orange art piece

    I was inspired by the
    - color palette
    - doodled lines
    - all the girls made me think of LBW's little girls (so I used one of those)
    - the butterflies
    - used the purpose quotes for title and journaling
    - the AJ style image

    For some reason I had a hard time getting started on this challenge and did 6 before this one. My goal for this year is to be more focused and decided I wanted to incorporate a little humor into it, thus my search for the perfect cross eyed photo. I actually used a filter on it to make it a bit more painterly so one of my requirements were made.

    1. Painted Portrait
    2. Paint sample
    3. cluster of layers instead of flowers
    4. Grid used behind the lower blue collection
    5. Frame from girl on tracks

    This one's definitely out of my comfort zone, hence the reason I'm a day late! :-) That and learning new software at the same time.
    [​IMG]
    The inspirations I took from the board were:
    1. colour palette - use the teal and the navy
    2. Marc anthony quote from centre
    3. style of chalk writing from bottom left photo
    4. never let your fear decide your future quote
    5. 2D drawn portrait
    6. made heart dimensional on the drawing - the umbrella is dimensional on the fence drawing

    Goal for the year - less planning, more doing

    Wheew! This was a toughee! Mostly because it was so subjective- I mean, one person's mood board may thrill or seem dull to another. This didn't exactly come out as envisioned, but I'm happy it's done!

    My 5 items:
    the double frame image,
    quotation on page
    sketch

    This one was hard!! Inspiration - Brick wall. Painted face. Quote. Butterfly. Muted color flowers. Flower cluster.

    My goal is to find myself now that my girls are all grown and pretty much out of the house. I think this quote is about finding yourself.

    My inspiration came from any number of things on the board
    1) the flying away of butterflies into the birds flying free
    2) colour palette
    3) white writing on dark background
    4) the brick background
    5)the various quotes in various shapes and word art
    6) the flower Cluster

    My goal is in the form of my One Little Word for 2019 which is Breathe
    "Breathe is to remind me to enjoy the small stuff, and isn't all stuff small stuff.Every breath I take is a bonus breath. I need to start enjoying each and every one of them. I will enjoy every bonus moment I have as I breathe."
