Grand Theft Layout 08/05/09, lifting Jamie

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009

Hi everyone, Monique (monsu) here to bring you the new GTL.

For this week’s scraplift challenge I chose Jamie (jam1el33) for our target!

Her gallery is full of fun and creative pages! Her title work is often amazing!

So please, have fun browsing her gallery and pick a layout you’d like to use as a starting point for your own project!

I lifted Cole1:

And here’s my version, using Falling Dusk by Erica Zane:

And here are the pages that inspired our wonderful Creative Team:

Liz lifted this page:

And here’s her layout, using Sahlin Studio’s Love Life and Worn Cardboard Strip Alpha:

Kim chose Jamie’s We Rock:

And here’s her version, using Jennifer Barrette’s School Girl Rock and Add on and Sparkle and Shine:

Last but not least, Cristina lifted Cooling off:

And gave it a little tilt to create this page, using Secret Sage by Erica Zane:

Here’s a reminder of our Matter of Scrap Challenge rules:

You have all month to complete this challenge and once you post your LO in the gallery and this thread in the forum, you will receive one point.

If you use a newly released product from the Scrap Matters store on your challenge layout, you earn an additional point!! But make sure you indicate in your credits that the item you used was a new release.

Your LO must be posted before the end of this month to be counted.

At the end of the month I will choose my favourite for an extra point!

You don’t have to use SM products to participate in this challenge, but we love it when you do!

Remember, no double dipping. Each LO must be created for one challenge only.

Good luck and have fun!

I’m looking forward to seeing your pages in the gallery!
