AEzine Challenge & weekend update
Tags:Here was the challenge from the AEzine last week:
Did you get a chance to do this yet? It is a great little exercise for focusing yourself on your word. Another thing you may consider doing is looking up your word in a thesaurus (one of my favorite tools). Here are some words for peace I found in my thesaurus: tranquility, calm, restfulness, peace and quiet, peacefulness, quiet, quietness; privacy, solitude, composure, ease, contentment, contentedness, harmony, nonviolence
Still loving reading through all those comments on the initial positng of the one little word challenge.
Right now I am waiting for my flight out of Vancouver - on my way back home. Had a great time once again at Photo Express - seeing old friends again and meeting new ones. Thanks for such a nice weekend - and thanks again Michelle for the invitation.
I will be back up in Vancouver again in March for ARTistry. This is a very special, cool event with Donna Downey and Claudine Hellmuth. There are just a few seats left for this experience - should be a ton of fun and a bit more "artsy" than some of the other events.
On Wednesday I will be heading to Pennsylvania for Scrappin Away Vacations. Totally looking forward to the adventure and for a bit of time to do a bit of scrapbooking as well as teaching.
Crazy, busy life.
Happy Monday!

wow you are one busy gal!!!! I loved the first challenge and am loving how I have been able to incorporate it into my life. I have decided to create an album that will keep track of how I incorporated sweet simplicity into my life over this year. So for your last challenge I decided to also create a LO that defines (dictionary defintion) my chosen words. here is a link to my blog where both LO's have been posted in previous posts. Thanks for the inspiration!!!

i took your one word challenge to heart. i discussed my thoughts on choosing one word, the word i chose, why i chose the word, and steps I can take to embrace the word i chose on my blog today.
i also altered a journal to house my thoughts on my word throughout this year and posted that project.
The link is here:

Hey Ali..thanks for the challenge. I took your challenge and combined it with Heidi Swapps Class... My word is commit and from that I created my 12 x 12 layout for A Year to Remember class.

I took your challenge, and made a little canvas/magnetic frame, with the definitions inside it. Check it out! (I listed what definitions I used under the pic)
