Welcome to another Monday Challenge on the October Afternoon blog.
Every now and then I like to take a look at the things I've pinned on Pinterest to give me a jumping off point or a fresh perspective. So, what better challenge this week than one based on something on my PInterest boards.
When I first took a look at this image I thought about three things.
1. the monochromatic color scheme
2. the literal presentation of the items... lots of layers clipped up by clothespins
3. the individual elements, specifically the large monogram
I chose to focus mostly on 2 and 3 for my page.
I pulled out my papers from Make it Merry and found a "2" that I was going to substitute for the monogram. Then I layered numerous papers from that line and from Farm Girl. I worked in two groups... layering papers and die-cuts on the bottom half and attaching those with a paperclip.
I repeated the same for the top, but used a button to act as a fastener for those items.
I tossed this inspiration piece over to Becky as well. She dug into her Woodland Park stash and came up with this awesome page!
I love how two people can use the same inspiration piece and come up with two very different pages!
How will you interpret this inspiration piece?
