Hello and welcome to the January, Week 3 AJ Challenge. Our word for January is RESET and what a wonderful word it is. To me, it's just full of possible new beginnings, but also for me, personally, there are still challenges. I just love the word RESET, however we want to interpret and use it. Just let this word be your muse and take your creativity wherever it will.
Here are some great quotes about RESET that I found online: I hope you find some inspiration from one or more of them.
Here's my inspiration layout and as you can see, I did use the word RESET, but you don't have to. I'm working hard on "resetting myself" and hopefully, my layout reflects a lighter note for the beginning of this new year.
You can choose to do a single page/tag/TN each week, or do a divided template - one part for each week. If you don't have the Divided Template and would like to have it, you can get it here at Dropbox. Thank you to Ona @wombat146 for providing the template choices for us! If you do the template, we would love it if you would post it incrementally. Post one done in the first week, post an image of the two together on the second, and three on the third, and then the finished page on the fourth week.
Again - the template is NEVER a requirement to use, just something fun and different if you want to use it.
Everyone who participates in any of this month's challenges will be entered into a drawing for a $5 gift certificate to Oscraps. You can receive up to four entries into this month's drawing.
Challenge Rules:
You have until 11:59 p.m. CST on January 31 to complete your pages for this challenge.
Here are some great quotes about RESET that I found online: I hope you find some inspiration from one or more of them.
"It's not only moving that creates new starting points. Sometimes all it takes is a subtle shift in perspective, an opening of the mind, an intentional pause and reset, or a new route to start to see new options and new possibilities" ~ Kristin Armstrong
"We all get so caught up in the moment of what we're doing every day, it's hard to hit that reset button and get pulled away from all that and see life from a different perspective."Tony Stewart
“A fresh start isn’t a new place, it’s a new mindset.” – Gary John
“Sometimes the best way to move forward is to stop where you are and hit reset.” –
Kris Gage
