Don't forget to do some journaling on your page by writing down your thoughts using an idiom for the number "five". You can find a list of idioms here:

Just pick one that inspires your thought process and journal about it. I think the number theme of this project can add a fun element to your pages... you might want to use the respective number prominently in decorating your pages. Don't stop with a simple saying - that's just a prompt to get you started. Let the creativity continue to flow as you journal and decorate your pages. You have the entire month to complete your pages for this challenge.
Here are some idioms for "FIVE" to get you going...

- hang five and hang ten

Don't forget... As a little incentive for this project, the moderators are offering the opportunity to win a prize for participating.
For each challenge in which you participate (there will be a total of 10), you will earn one entry into the random drawing to be held when the project is complete. The more entries you earn, the bigger the potential prize:
1-3 entries = prize value of $5
4-6 entries = prize value of $10
7-9 entries = prize value of $15
10 entries = prize value of $20
One lucky person will win a gift card to their favorite local craft store up to the value for which they qualified. More participation >> More chances to win >> Bigger potential prize! Plus... it will be lots of fun, too.
