PBarnes Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Father's Day is celebrated in June in the United States, but a day set aside to honor our male parent is celebrated in many countries on different dates throughout the year. For June's layout contest, we want you to do a layout honoring your father, whether he is living or not. Post your layouts in the June Monthly Layout Gallery before Midnight MT on June 30th. Be sure to list your credits in the description or under the EXIF Properties. Including journaling on your page is always a good thing. If your layout is one of the two chosen winners, you will receive a $10 Gift Certificate to the Scrap Girls Boutique! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nica Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Perfect! I have a half finished LO of my dad that I never seem to get around to finishing. Perhaps this will give me the push I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A-M Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 This sounds a lovely theme for this month. I have done a couple of tribute type pages about my Dad since his death 6 years ago but there is a page I would like to do about the little great-granddaughters he missed out on.

MariJ Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 Wonderful idea, Pat. We are all so good at celebrating Mothers and sometimes Fathers get lost! Can't wait to see all the layouts in the June Gallery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sara Arell Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I'm still working on this one - I just found a great picture of my Dad - now to figure out where my mojo is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Ahhhhhh, Here's My Dad but I think I may go back and re-do it when I am feeling more creative! Where, oh, where did my mojo go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cabalistic Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 We can do more than one, correct? I was thinking of doing two... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 We can do more than one, correct? I was thinking of doing two... I think so, Tonya - I know I'm going to have to do another one - the one I did this morning was just awful - I want to use that pic of my Dad but surely I can do better than what I submitted this morning - I don't think it's a problem to do more than one but am sure someone else who knows more than I will come along and let you know for sure.

princessrunningfingers Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 We can do more than one, correct? I was thinking of doing two... I've never done more than one, but I know I have seen two done by the same person a few times. I'm sure it is perfectly ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara Arell Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 I just wanted to say thank you for all of the love on my layout of my Daddy! His picture is very special to me and I really thought I might re-do my layout because I was so not feeling creative when I did that but after all the Scrap Girl love, maybe I will just leave it as is! Yall are just the best! You make a girl feel good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBarnes Posted June 12, 2011 Author Share Posted June 12, 2011 I apologize for not catching your question earlier, Tonya. Yes, Sara and Joyce have it right. It is perfectly ok to post more than one layout in the monthly contests. Keep 'em coming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
princessrunningfingers Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Here's my layout of my wonderful Dad. He passed away in 1993 at the age of 84, and I will never stop missing him. My Dad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
