Hi ladies…how are you? How is going your September?

I have planned this post, out of our regular challenges because we have some news here in SIWAS….

We need some members for our Design Team….

This time the DT call will work differently.

We don’t ask for any challenge this time.

What we require as a member of SIWAS DT

1. We have 2 teams here: Pop and Rock. Every week on thursday we have a challenge.The challenges have generally a common theme, decided before.  We scrap a song, generally, but could be even a CD cover or a movie poster….The songs are generally decided by me, or by me with the Team. We ask 2 works a month every 2 weeks…
2. The DT members must comment the entries on their blog, please don’t forget this, because who shares a work with us must receive a comment!
3. The DT members decide the winners. Every month we have only one winner!
4. The prize for the winners is a RAK, a little present made by one of members of the Team.
5. I require a minimum six months period to stay with us….But if you love siwas you can stay more.

Pop Team: Getting Better

Someone really doesn’t love the school….
As told in this beautiful and famous song by The Beatles :)
Lyrics

                                                    Melania

For this song I made a Smash Journal page. I love smashing and when i have to celebrate a song, often I do smash with the pics of the band/singer and the reason for which i love the song! This song is on my favourite Beatles album "Sgt. pepper's", i love it because my mon (great fan of Beatles) gifted it to me. :)

Karen

inspired by the lyrics to make a LO about my daughter getting better at finishing her meals.

 Deanne

...inspired by a line in the song

Astrid

Hi all, this is my first post as a dt member here on SIWAS and I already love it ! I was very honoured being asked on the team. For my first page I was inspired by this line; I'm doing the best I can" ,  I think it was perfect with my boys photo''s trying to get dressed by himself

Rock team: Summer of 69

Hi ladies…are you enjoying your September?
Here there’s another challenge for you! This week we have the very charming man…Bryan Adams with the Summer of 69 :D
Lyrics

May i say????very sexy Bryan Adams :D

Kristin

This challenge is from Bryan Adams "Summer of '69" it is making you look back on the summer but this made me want to do a page with all the new school supplies that we have bought Colton for school ...his new backpack and lunchbox ....good times!!!

Please check out my blog for details:

JANE

Couldn't resist doing a page for my Childhood Memories album.

  School really was some of the best days of my life ...

Doreen 

I was inspired by the song title and used it, w/ a little bit of a twist, as the title

of my layout: "July 4th Summer of 2013".  The song also inspired me to scrap a page

about a summer event.

Amy 

I was inspired by the part: "Those were the best day of my life"!

This picture was taken on our vacation to Spain in 2010 we had a wonderful time there.

We all love the beach but who doesn't right?

Pop Team: Another Brick in the Wall by Pink Floyd

Hi groupies!
This week we have an emblematic song to speak about school! Maybe the most famous song of Pink Floyd … Year 1979…and it’s really beautiful
 The  lyrics

                                                           Melania 

 

I was inspired by the words written in the page!

I am very fond of this song...My cousin made me listen to it, when i was only 8 yrs old. 

I imagine everyone knows that when Waters wrote this song, the wall he spoke about was the one that obstructs the communication between people! 

Karen

As a teacher I was inspired by my hatred of marking.

Deanne

Being a teacher, I just HAD to create a teacher layout for this song!!

This is of my first year teaching in ...um...errr...1988!!

August Winner

Ladies we have the winners of the Summer challenge :)

At the third place, ex equo we have

Rock Team: Good Morning Little Schoolgirl by The Yardbirds

Hi Galsssssssssssssss…did you spend a wonderful summer? I hope so…
September is officially the month of coming back to school…
And we begin this month with a wonderful old song!

Do you know the Yardbirds? They were a lovely band in the middle of 60’s in which played 3 great guitarists: Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page…Here the lyrics

Great News in this month: the winner won't be our guest designer BUT....will receive a little RAK (Random Act of Kindness) handmade by one of our DT members :D
Have fun!!!!
And that would be me Kristin ...since it is a school theme I have some wonderful Echo Park "Paper and Glue" collection all cut up and ready to go out to three different winners!!!
Here is a photo of the prize:

Good luck to everyone!!!

JANE

I used the lyrics "hug hug squeeze squeeze" to highlight this lovely family photograph of my kids and dh on Father's Day morning.  Nothing quite like a little hugging and squeezing between siblings!

Kristin

This is the page that I did because if you listen to the words in the song they say "lets dance" ...so that made me think of Colton and Bailey dancing at the Phineas & Ferb's Rockin' Rollin' Dance Party on the California Adventure side of the park ...we had sooo much fun that trip!!!

Please check out my blog for close-ups

Thanks!!!
