Design team take on Natalie......

So the girls have been working hard and fast to come up with their layouts after I sprung the new format on them not so long ago..... (sorry sisters about the short notice but OMG they rocked it)


To recap we have our  September #1 Jack from the talented Ms Natalie May....




pppsssssttttt... don't forget to click on any of the photos because it will give you a slideshow of all the photos used in the blog post all in a bigger format so you can see the details so so much better.


................................ 



And this is what our Design team have created this month....


'Little girls are heavens flowers - Deb
I totally loved the design of the page, inspired by the runs/drips down the page, the flowers across the top and the sweet photo........all ”jacked” with a shabby/vintage feel.


...........................




'The colour in my life' - Bec

.......................




'bloom & grow' - Lisa

.......................




'we call her happydaks' - Kylie
loved this Jack......the colours are amazing

.......................




'Be true to who you are' - Naomi
As a colour addict this is one of my favourite layouts ever to try and copy in my own style... I have one question for Natalie how on earth did you get all your dribbles running in a straight line????

.......................




'In Colour' - Dana
I LOVE the September inspiration piece!  I can't wait for the reveal and launch of the new site!


..............................

and lastly a surprise entrant and our new design team member makes a cracking entrance into the scrapjacking world with this card



it is of course from our hijacked Natalie May...... I was so excited that Natalie accepted the offer to come and join us at scrapjack with her incredible talent and flair, that I could resist the urge to ask her to 'go jack herself....' sounds a little rude, but it had me laughing and snorting for a while.

So welcome aboard Natalie and I think I will move this card on to our new Cardjacked studio for the month as our inspiration... 

As you can see from all the various takes on Natalie's original layout there are so many many ways to take inspiration from one layout....
It could be the  
COLOUR
DESIGN
TECHNIQUE
TITLE
ELEMENTS

It is your stepping stone so to speak, to try something new, to adapt it to your style, to break you out of you rut, but mostly to have a little fun.

I hope your feeling well and truly inspired to go pick up the paper and glue and get creating over the next couple of weeks... Remember to upload your takes on this jack to the email or leave a comment on the blog with a link.

cheers 
Nx and the team
