    Hello to week Four of our Lift Month. This week I'm sorry I don't have a layout of my own to show you but we ended up doing a quick weekend trip to help my son with a project of building a deck onto his house so I didn't have access to my desktop.
    This week we are lifting @alinalove Alina's layout Nature Always Win
    What is the first thing about this layout that draws me...
    1. Dark background
    2. Blended in nature photo
    3. Large title work
    4. grunge and texture

    First time I make any of these Muse challenges, not sure if I'm doing it right. But this layout was so inspiring, and as I wrote in my comment to the layout: "This is my only hope - nature will win, humans will not be able to destroy the earth." I absolutely just had to make a layout myself. Here it is:

    I took the dark background, textures, lines, strings and a mix of drop shadowed and blended elements.

    I loved the darker background, the grunge and the 3D elements on top.

    I liked the beauty/nature aspect of the page and the messy thread...
