The amount of dots on a 6-sided die is 21.
According to physician Duncan MacDougal, 21 grams is the weight of a human soul.
21 means time for new beginnings and changes.
Don't feel like you can do a bonus challenge? It's okay! We just wanted to offer a little something more for those who want to gamble on themselves this year.

Love some of these challenge ideas! Can you share the link where we can sign up to participate? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! I've incorporated a few of the challenges already. Have about half of my posts written for April, but should have them all pre-written and scheduled before the month starts. I'm taking guesses on my blog as to what my theme will be this year.
ReplyDeleteHi, I would love to participate but how do I go ahead.. really new to this.

I've been looking forward to this! My challenge is participating with both my blogs. I like the prompt idea challenge, but it's too late to do that now, I've already started.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas! Though I'll probably stick to the easiest one and share the links on two SM platforms.
ReplyDeleteExcellent ideas! Chuffed to see WEP on there - thank you!
ReplyDeleteLots of good ideas! I do some already, there is always room for MORE. Haha.
