February 1st Reveal

It is February 1st already and time for a new pop song and a new rock song to give you inspiration for a project.  This month we have some fairly new songs that are on the radio quite a lot.  I really like both of these songs and hope you all do too.  Listen to the rock song and the pop song and choose one or both and make a paper project based on anything the song inspires you to do. It doesn't have to be a scrapbook layout: it can be any type of paper project.  By the way it can even be a digital design.
Inspiration can be anything at all: it can be the title, it can be words in the song, it can be how the song makes you feel, really just any thing that the song inspires you to feel.  Please tell us how the song inspired you on your project.You can do a layout or project for each of the songs, just do separate entries for each.  Link up at the top right with the linky tool.  The winner will be picked at random by the linky tool on the last day of the month.  Also the design team will pick their favorite project and ask the designer to be our guest on the blog in an upcoming month.  We hope you will join all the lovely designers on the team and get some of those projects done while listening to music.

 Our songs for February are -click on titles to be taken to the video:

Let's see what the first half of the team has for you.

Rock Team

I didn't know this song previously: when I listened to it for the first time it suddenly gave me a sense of fun and happiness. I saw the video and it was so colorful... I wanted to recreate something fun and colorful! These are pictures from 2014 Valentine's Day: me and my hubby toke part in a craft party together! So much fun making felted ornaments - hot air balloons and clouds, so you can understand why I used them as embellishments!



I have still a very well relation (most often) with my ex-husband, and father of my son. I'm happy with that, so I used the word EX to make a LO about him!


Pop Team

I have been thinking a lot about what to do with this song, but the lyric "hello from the otherside" was spinning around my mind. 'the otherside" made me think of out of space, aliens and so on,  and than I remember this photo from last year at the history of the planes museum. I went a little nuts with my stamps and embellies ;-)


Marie-Christine


I was inspired by the title "Hello" and I wanted to make something funny and try mixed media technique. So, this is a tag that says "Hello" to you!
