Default $ Simply Inspired Contest No. 10 - Deadline 6/15/09

Simply Inspired Contest No. 10
Inspiration : Book Cover
Deadline : June 15, 2009


Ready for another Simply Inspired Contest?

What fun entries we’ve been receiving for these contests! I’ve noticed people pushing themselves to think outside the box and searching deep for fresh new concepts to put on their pages. Way to go! That’s what this contest is all about! This week we will be using a book cover for our inspiration. Book covers are one of my favorite sources of inspiration. The eye-catching designs and bold typography are so fun to incorporate into our scrapbooks. So…

Your challenge this week is to create a layout based on this book cover:



There are so many possibilities with this. Try creating your page on a fun angle, use a black background, incorporate horizontal and vertical text on your layout, or create a cool photo collage with perfectly equal margins. We want to see the creative ways this book cover inspires your next layout! Don’t forget to upload to the Simply Inspired gallery on or before June 15, 2009 to be in the running for a $10 gift certificate to the Designer Digitals store!!!

I can’t wait to see how you are simply inspired!

Here's mine. Thanks for the great challenge. I really did try to make everything at an angle, but just couldn't do it, lol.

Yay! I LOVE these!!! Karen, I love that you were inspired by the photo collage and the title design! No need to create it on an angle! This is about pulling inspiration (ANY inspiration) from the piece and creating something your own! I love this!

And GypsyMama, this is so cool and unique! How clever to find something as subtle as the angle in the photo background and connect it with this challenge! This is the perfect example of thinking outside the box! Way to go!
