Happy 6th Birthday to Scrapbooking & Cards Today

This week Scrapbooking & Cards Today is celebrating it's 6th birthday. A group of us decided to celebrate with a layout chain. The idea is one designer creates a layout and sends it to the next designer on the list and they create a layout inspired/based off the layout and then the new layout is passed on to the next designer on the list and so on. Our layout tag chain went a little something like this .... Emily Pitts to Vicki Boutin to Kathy Thompson to me to Davinie Fiero to Lynn Ghahary.


I received this layout from Kathy ...

I used Kathy's layout as if it was a sketch: photo flanking the left, layered patterned papers with rounded corners on a cardstock base. In the end I don't think our layouts look anything a like but when you break down my layout the similarities seem so clear.


To follow the chain check out how Davinie was inspired by my layout.
