Grand Theft Layout: 3/30/2011
Wednesday, March 30th, 2011
Hey scrappers! Wow, can you believe it’s almost April? I sure can’t! Welcome to the last GTL for March, and, technically, the first for April, since the challenge will carry over through the whole month! I’m Becca (becca372), here to bring you one of my favorite challenges.
This week, I am bringing you the gallery of one of my favorite scrappers, and someone I’ve been scrapping with since (to be honest) we both barely knew what a layer was! Sarah Bennett is an amazing scrapper, has been a great digi-designer, and then…well…her internet went POOF for several months. Just recently, she got it back, and I was SO happy…I didn’t realize how much I had missed seeing her pages in the galleries!!
Anyway…her gallery, from old to new, is full of fabulousness, and I’m sure you will find something there to spark your creativity! Check it out here, scrap away, and then show me your layout in the Grand Theft Layout thread in our challenge forum!
Here’s the layout I chose to lift:

and here is the layout I created, using Embrace the Day by the ScrapMatters Design Team

and here is some more inspiration from Sarah and the SM Creative Team
and used My Life and Story: An Autobiography Kit by Jady Day Studio, and Many Thanks: An SM Design Team Collab to create this:

and created this, using Drift Away: The Sweet Deal by Graham Like the Cracker and By Becca

and used Totally 80′s by the ScrapMatters Design Team to create this fun layout:

tsmspt lifted this recent layout of Sarah’s:

and her lift, using Erica Zane’s First Time Ever

and, last but not least, Fran lifted:

and used (look out!) Back 2 Skool, Handwritten Dates, My Magical Place: Add-On Alpha, My Magical Place Add-On and My Magical Place Clusters, all by Haynay Designs to make this fun layout

So, are you feeling inspired? I know I’m ready to lift Sarah over and over again!
