You can either create a project where something actually moves, shakes, slides, wobbles, jiggles OR you can use an image where there is movement within it (like dandelions blowing in the wind) OR you can create movement in the background in an artsy way. 

Here are our Challenge rules ~

• Enter only new creations – no backlinking
• If using The East Wind images ~ unlimited entries
• If using The East Wind images ~ enter with link to blog post and 2^nd time with link to blog
