    Hi Everyone! It's June! It's supposed to be warm and getting super sunny for the summer, but it hasn't yet, and I'm trying to wait patiently! We've got a mixed bag over here in NJ. I know some of you are in different seasons, and probably waiting patiently for the next one to come! Anyway, I guess to keep myself busy, we will scrap this month's RANDOM challenge. Haha!

    For this month, you will.....be completing a mixed bag challenge. First, you will get a color palette from Colormind. (http://colormind.io/)

    Then you will complete a layout using the recipe below, and combining it with the color palette you found at Colormind.

    Here is the recipe:
    1. One blended photo, you may have more smaller ones. No limit.
    2. Include at least 2 strings, bows, stitching, ribbon, twine, etc. Mix and match.
    3. Add some elements - at least 1 flower, 1 greenery, 1 postage stamp and 1 star.
    4. Add at least one piece of word art, more is ok.
    5. This is a tricky one... Using your color palette, please add 5 new items, your choice of what you add, that is close to each color in the palette. These should be separate from the items added in 1-4.


    Here is my color palette:

    I used Rachel's Thallus, Anita's Sea La Vie, NBK Delightful Masks to complete my page!

    One Blended photo, 2 strings - Blue and a Greenish one, 3 peach flowers, 2 leaves, 1 postage stamp, 1 white star, and 2 word art pieces. For my 5 new items, I have a navy flower, a greenish flower, a seahorse, a darker star, and a fish in the background.

    Can't wait to see what you create!

    Gentle reminder: please remember our monthly challenge rules. Your page must contain at least 75% Lilypad product. Your page should be posted to the Lilypad Gallery and then linked to the June Challenge Layouts thread so it can be tracked, and to this thread. (Please use the share BB IMG code found on the right side of the gallery).

    The Lilypad uses a percent system for our challenges; the number of challenges you participate in determines the store discount you will receive at the end of the month:

    2 challenges = 10% off
    4 challenges = 20% off
    6 challenges = 30% off

    If you complete 7 challenges, you will receive a coupon for 30% off, plus you will be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from the Lilypad! The first seven challenges will be posted on the first of the month; the eighth challenge is the BYOC challenge, which is posted on BYOC release day. Each page counts for one challenge (you cannot use one layout for multiple challenges).

    I just did a screen grab and cropped it. You could just upload the screen grab and add the thumbnail in the More Options button when you reply.

    I couldn't figure out how to do a screen grab, so I took a photo of my screen. Not great quality, but you can see the colours:
