February challenge

Hi guys, here we are at February with two new wonderful songs: each month here at Scrap it with a song we give you a pop and a rock song as inspiration to create any kind of paper project (altered canvas, card, layout, ATC, art journal…) Here is a link to the challenge rules.

The Rock Song is....
Little by Little - Oasis


The pop song is ...
Whenever - Shakira

Let' s see how the DT used these wonderful songs

POP TEAM

Giorgia
I used part of the lyrics "tell me one more time that you'll live lost in my eyes" as title for this layout about our 2013 Valentine's photo shoot. I love having funny photo shoot with my Love!


Annamaria

Hello, I draw inspiration from the title, and I created a door tag!


Astrid
I choose the lyric "we're meant to be together" and that's what me and my hubby are. Searching many years for mr.right and found him in 2004.


Andrea

I took inspiration from the title.  When I was searching for a photo to use, I came across this one of my son at a carnival.  I thought to myself, " wherever this world takes you, I will follow".


Anne
I loved all the words in Shakira's pop song, "Whenever",
but the one word in the lyrics that kept popping
 out at me was the word LUCKY...


Chara
I love this song by Shakira and it was really easy for me to be inspired ... the part of the lyrics I chose was "Ten Million ways to love somebody" and I scrapped a photo of me and my Mom!!!


ROCK TEAM

Tynke
I love this line of the song! I made an art journal page of it, to remember this when I'm feeling not so well..


Monia
Perfect title to celebrate the birthday of a our friends' child! Little by little as to recall the growth that we all do in life! Super inspiring !!!


Kristin

 I had so much fun making this page from the title of the song and using some of my Disney pictures right as you start entering the park ...i tried ti take as many pictures as I could during our big adventure ..."Little by Little" ...

FedericaThe song made me think to my cat who is very little...so i scrapped this page for her!


Melania
I used the phrase "We are free" in this Lo about the USA east coast holiday 2010....with this car we were really free!!!

Hello, my name is Astrid and I am from The Netherlands. I'm on SIWAS DT since a year and I am still in love with music as inspiration for scrapbooking.

I began scrapping in 2004 when I bought a scrapbooking magazine: then I discovered a world on internet and online galleries. I become more interested on it in 2006 when my child was born.

In the last few months I'm experimenting with inks, mists and stamps... I love trying new techinques.

We have a lot of funny challenges for you here and we hope to see you play with us!

I've been cardmaking since I was a child, I did it always with my grandmother. I discovered scrapping about 9 years ago, but it became my favorite hobby when I joined a panel vor North-Dutch Scrappers 5 years ago. My style is mostely colorfull, I like to experiment with different materials. Since oktober 2013 I joined the SIWAS team, and I like it very much! I hope our work inspires you to join our current challenge and all the challenges that may come!

Hi my name is Anne Bolduc-Jang.  I live in the United States.  In Maryland, about 30 minutes north of Washington DC.  I have been married for 17 years, have a 14 year old daughter,   I have been scrapbooking for what feels like forever, and still after all this time I still love it!  Most of whom I scrap are my rather large family, (there are 28 of us) and we all live within 15 miles of each other.  I am excited to be a part of this design team, because I love music, and according to my friends, I am a walking jukebox and know all the words to all the songs! Which will only enhance my scrapbook pages because I always say there is a song for every occasion!
