Oh So Beautiful Paper

Happy Mon­day every­one!  I’m so happy to be back after a wonderful week of rest and relaxation – and I’m incredibly grateful to Mag­gie and Melanie for holding down the fort while I was away!  First things first, we’re start­ing the week off with our Monday sum­mer con­test series with Moon­tree Let­ter­press!  In case you missed it the first time, here’s a bit of back­ground on the con­test and how to enter.  The win­ner with the best six word story will receive 50 per­son­al­ized let­ter­press note­cards!  This week’s theme is “Prom Night” – feel free to leave mul­ti­ple comments/entries, and don’t be afraid to get creative!

You’ll have until 11:59 p.m. EST on Tues­day to leave your entry in the com­ments below, then Rebecca will announce the win­ner on her blog on Wednes­day!  And just in case you need some inspi­ra­tion, you can check out these six word auto­bi­ogra­phies.  Bonne chance!

    From girl to woman via dancefloor.

    And we danced like nobody’s business.

    We danced; time couldn’t catch us.

    Timberlake thumped, time goes in reverse.

    My dress torn. How dare she?

    Feeling the groove! Chaperoning is fun!
    Embarrassed, she ignored her dancing mother.

    Looking back, big hair isn’t better.

    Why’d I say no to her?
    Nervous dancer. Bathroom stalls are small.
    Went as group. Left as couples.
    The after-party is my life.
    Seems important until it is over.
