Trying to keep that scrap mojo going...put the kiddos on the bus, made a cup of tea and headed straight for the craft room! My scrapping process starts with a visit to my favorite blogs for some scrapping inspiration. I make a list of current challenges and then grab some pics I'd like to work with. I take a look at my challenge list to see what would work with the pics I have going, and then start building a layout!
For today's layout, I started with the "I Gotta Feeling" song challenge at Scrap It With a Song. I LOVE using song lyrics as titles on my page, and since I was scrapping New Years Eve pics, this song was perfect! Next I went with the color scheme and sketch from Black With Two. I would not normally reach for black, seafoam green, and sand, so I like how a color challenge forces me out of my comfort zone! Lastly I added in the challenge from Twisted Tuesday, to use more than three manufacturers plus an arrow. It was fun to pull out scraps of various pattern papers, as well as stickers from several different lines and layer them all into one happy layout. Here's the end result:
Do you have a favorite challenge blog you like to turn to for a creative jump-start? I'd love to hear about it and add it to my "go-to" list! Thanks for stopping by, =) T
