Hello and welcome to the July AJ Challenge, Week 2. Our word prompt for July is {CONNECTION}. Although this word might seem similar to other word prompts we've given you, upon researching for the challenge, I've come to believe that it's very unique. This quote that I found pretty much sums up what the word really means.

“Invisible threads are the strongest ties.” – Friedrich Nietzsche

How beautiful is the thought of invisible threads connection us? I really like this next quote too and it follows the same line of thought.

"Everywhere was connected to everywhere else, Pismire had said.” – Terry Pratchett

Let these two quotes sink in for a minute. I found them very powerful and profound.

Here are some of the picture/quotes that I love so much and made them into a mood board forbore inspiration.

Here's my layout. I was so enamored with the first quote and used it on my page. I also used some "threads" and my signature wings to "connect Heaven and earth".


Challenge Rules:
  • You have until 11:59 p.m. CST on July 31 to complete your pages for this challenge.
  • To qualify for the drawing, you need to use 80% Oscraps products that are currently in the store (non-Oscraps products or retired O designer products can be used whether the designer is selling elsewhere or not).
  • You need to credit all the products used on your page.
  • You cannot use a page you create for this challenge for another Oscraps challenge.
  • Upload your page to the Art Journal Gallery and then add your layout to the challenge thread. (Below you will find instructions on adding your page to this thread.)
Adding a linked layout from the Gallery to a thread:
  • Upload your layout to the gallery first. In your forum post, click the Gallery Embed icon (little camera).
  • This will open your gallery; simply click on the layout you require, then scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the Continue button.
  • Your linked layout is now in your post; the image will appear once you have clicked the Post Reply button.
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.

We look forward to seeing your art journaling pages!
