January 23: Scraplift Challenge

MY LAYOUT:


I admire so many of the Pollys and their fabulous styles that it was really hard to choose. In the end, I had to pick something by EllenT. I’ve been a huge fan of her heavily-clustered style for a long time (a scrapper after my own heart). I love the eclectic look of this layout she did of herself with her sister. I wish time would have allowed me to do this as a hybrid LO, but alas…

SCRAPLIFT: Sisters by EllenT
 


I scraplifted the page "Crazy moments" by Mrivas
Enjoy the Crazy Moments web.jpg
 
What An Amazing & Somewhat Intimidating Challenge...The Pollywog Layouts Are Always So Amazing To Drool Over & Ponder Their Thought Process For Creating Each Page...At Least I Do That...So In True Me Fashion I
Decided To Scraplift This Unbelievably Cool...Incredible Layout That Is One Of The Most Interesting Layouts
That I Have Seen In A Long Time...Perhaps I May Have Bit Off More That I Can Chew Sort Of Speak But As
Soon As I Saw This Particular Layout I Got This Crazy Idea In Head & I'm Not One To Shy Away From Trying
Something New Or Something That I'm Not Too Familiar With Or Too Experienced With...This Layout Was
Just A Little Bit Out Of My Comfort Zone...When I Saw The Big Head & Face & All That WA I Immediately
Thought Of Doing A Similar Theme But A Bit More Subdued In Style & More Of An Artsy,Grungy,Vintage,
Floral Take On Her Layout...

I Have Always Wanted To Do A Layout With A Large Person Element Or Picture Who Is Thinking About Life &
All That This Entails...Worries,Stress,Happiness,Love,Life,Ambition Etc...The Head Of The Person Would Be
Filled With A Large Number Of Flowers In Abstract Thinking Mode...The Flowers Representing The Aforementioned
Things Relating To Life Being Wonderful & Sometimes Filled With Happiness But Also Sometimes Filled With Challenges & Stress & How Sometimes We Just Need To Stop,Step Back & Take A Deep Breath & Pause Life For
Awhile & Regroup Our Thoughts Before We Continue On This Journey Of Life...

To That I Used So Many Kits For This Layout(A Personal Record For Me) I May Need A Page Just To Post All The
Credits...This Layout Took Some Planning On My Part & A Lot Of Patience & Lots Of Layering Mostly Of Flowers...
I Have Never Layered So Many Flowers Together & Had To Make A Design & Get Everything To Match & Blend
Together So That It Looks Right To The Eye & To The Scale Of The Persons Head & The Scale Of The Layout...
That Is Why It Took Me So Long To Post This Layout...Deleting Flowers That Didn't Look Right...Adding Others...Deleting More & Adding Some More...There Must Be Somewhere Around 75 To 80 Flowers &
Maybe More Layered Together To Form The Ladies Headdress...I Mimicked The Original Layout In That She
Had A Significant Ear Piece & I Too Added An Earring To My Lady To Coincide With My Theme & Style...And I Used Multiple Words That Are Acting As Thoughts In her Head As Opposed To Coming Out Of Her Mouth As Per The Original...I Can Only Hope That I Did Justice To The Amazing Layout That I Scraplifted...
