Aya is with us today with a great tutorial: altered box

Aya has a great video tutorial planned for us today.   Please join us here for the current challenge. 

We have a great couple of songs and you still have time to link up with us before the end of the month.  We have some great prizes to be won too. Have a look at the mid month reveal and join in with us:  Scrap It With A Song  

Now, this is Aya's project:

This is an altered box: when I listened to the song, I come up with this, even me I didn't understand why exactly... But then I noticed that in the lyrics it says "a box I choose.
No other box I choose to use"...  When I hear a song sometimes my mind just do something else, so
it seems I took a word and turned it to a project!


Check out Aya's video tutorial on how to make this gorgeous, stunning altered box:

January Mid-Month Reveal

Now it's time to see what the second half of the design team has done. We have these wonderful songs for your inspiration. Listen to the rock song and the pop song and choose one or both and make a layout based on anything the song inspires you to do. Use the song in any way that it inspires you to create a project.  It can be any thing from the title to the way the music makes you feel or even the way the video makes you feel.  Just tell us how the song inspired you.  You may enter several different projects just link up to the linky tool at the top right with a separate link for each project.  It can be a digital creation as well.  You have two prizes that can be won. (If we get enough entries) These will be chosen by random by the linky tool.  The team will choose a project and that designer will be asked to be a guest designer in future.  I hope you will join us this month.

The song Honeymoon made me want to scrap pictures of when my husband and I celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. He totally surprised me with a much-anticipated, first-ever 'honeymoon' getaway to Dallas and then to Maryland. I gave him the new wedding band in the picture and he is holding the James Avery charm bracelet he got for me for you special silver celebration of marriage. I have also been wanting to scrap using some foil papers I picked up at Hobby Lobby, so I began this layout with the feather background and implemented some winter-y snowflakes because our anniversary is at the beginning of December.  Hope you like it! There is another page that goes with this layout and I will post some of the processes I used on my blog soon-feel free to jump over and visit!! http://impressionsbymelody.blogspot.com/

The song seems very dreamy/melancholy to me.  The lyrics had the word dream in it so that is the inspiration I took from the song.  My granddaughter looked like she was day dreaming in this photo.  I used paper from my stash and used some colorbox ink along with creative embellishments chipboard.  I used two different embossing powders on all of the chipboard.

Happy New Year! Let's start 2016 with great challenges

We hope everyone is up for great challenges this year! We have some wonderful songs for your inspiration. Listen to the rock song and the pop song and choose one or both and make a layout based on anything the song inspires you to do.
Actually 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.

I really had no idea what to do with this song about Honeymoon ? I do not have a lot of photo's from my own wedding, because it was a non traditional one, I have no friends or family who just got married , I started to read the lyrics from the song and found "fashionable" in it, well that's something I could play around with. Here's my boy with some "fashionable' orange glasses.

Marie-Christine

I was inspired by the title "Honeymoon", with a vintage wedding couple image and some beautiful Paper House paper for my background and items.
