03/08/16 - March "Round Robin" Challenge

 

This month I have signed up for 2 Inspiration Challenges over at Scrapbook.com.

 

Today I am showing you one of my layouts (the other I haven't completed yet).

 

The was created for the "Round Robin" Challenge:

"There are teams of 4 people, one person for each week, similar to a relay race. The person assigned for week 1 in each group will start their team off with a layout depending on what the specs and twist will be. Then the following week, everyone assigned to week 2 will lift off their week 1 team member and so on. It's fun to see how a lift progresses from the first week to the fourth."

 

I was week 1 for my team.

This was the starting inspiration (not created by me):

 

 

"Romance"

I went a whole other direction w/ it, pun intended,  while still including some of the original in my design.

I went for funny (though true) with my layout.
I also included the challenge's twist of "write a letter as part of your LO".
I wrote a letter to One Direction, LOL.

 

"Dear One Direction"

(It's on a white BG which is difficult to see on my blog BG)

 

Journaling: "March 5th, 2016
Dear One Direction - I'm 40 yrs old and a huge fan. I've loved your music since taking my daughter to your concert in Sept 2014. She has since outgrown you but I've become a bigger fan. I've been listening to your latest cd , "Made in the AM", almost daily since buying it in Nov 2015. Thanks for the great music! -Signed Mom who loves 1D
P.S. Please don't break up!"

 

 

 

I realize to some it may be silly... but I love music, especially Boy Band music and thought it would be fun to capture this time of my life and what group/artist I was into at the time.

After all... good, bad, ugly, funny... scrapbooking is all about capturing memories, right?
