I just can�t believe we are into the second week of May already! Mother�s Day is almost here, and Memorial Day is later in the month, but will be here sooner than we know it. But there are many other holidays in May too.
For this challenge we are making projects that reflect and represent any May celebration or holiday. I have listed a few fun ones, and some traditional holidays as well, but you are welcome to Google �May holidays� as there are MANY more! (Who decides this stuff anyway?)
Did you know May 8th (this post date) is NO SOCKS Day and HAVE A COKE Day?? Sounds good to me!
And Moms will like May 10th � CLEAN UP YOUR ROOMDay!
Please upload only NEW creations for this challenge. Your project should clearly show the theme of your chosen May holiday or celebration. No other limits. List your holiday in your description, please.

What a great idea for a challenge, thanks for posting early. I especially love the May 10th – CLEAN UP YOUR ROOM Day! I'm going to have to tell my daughter that one...LOL
OMG I just googled it and I cannot believe all the holidays!!! I found some good ones to add to your list on one site, but you may just have to wait to see my card first, snicker!
Some of these are so silly - which of course makes me want to try one! Thanks for the fun, Judy!

Good. I made lots of Mother's Day cards for a yard sell but I didn't keep one for MY Mom.

Here is my card - Sunflower Thanks. I will give this card and the coordinating basket I made yesterday to my twin's teacher and to each of my hostesses this month.
Too Funny! I looked it up and found May 13th is Root Canal Appreciation Day! ROFL..... I'll have to get to this one late today or tomorrow...my rugs are being cleaned today!
So how fun is THIS?!?!?! Thanks, Judy! I immediately knew which holiday I wanted (even knew what stamp and sentiment I would use!), and then my husband validated my choice without even knowing it... My card is here: Dance Like a Chicken by gregzgurl at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks for looking!
I love this challenge, Judy! Definitely playing tonight after work. Have a GREAT day everyone! and Happy Mother's Day a few days early.
hugs and smiles!
