January 7 - Magazine Inspiration

Fun challenge, thank you so much. It worked out perfectly for these photos I wasn't quite sure what to do with, hard to believe they were taken two years apart.

#3 requirement kills me....so, I have a question.
The images on the magazine pages DO have shadows and dimension...is it ok to create a page/card/etc and put it on our magazine page as a flat image, with no shadow around that?

Great challenge though! ♥

 

This was super fun. Thanks for the challenge!

 

Sorry- one more question, just to clarify: we can't create a cover, just page(s)...right?

 

I am so loving the pages created for this challenge! I didn't have much luck with inspiration in the magazines I had on hand! This was inspired by an advertisement in Real Simple.

 

WHEW! I loved this challenge idea! But I was surprised that the execution was so complicated! So many elements just don't "jive" easily with this style. So I finally finished and decided enough is enough. I might try an AJ version- maybe shoulda done that in the first place, LOL!

 

I think I forgot to post my layout. Forgive me if its already in this post, but I can't find it. Im not even sure I like my layout

 

so we don't have to post a picture of the magazine we used as inspiration? Just want to make sure because if we do I don't know how to do that without uploading to the gallery. LOL

 

Both halves are separated in the gallery.

 

This was fun! Love all the different inspiration!

 

It doesn't say anything about using a specific magazine page as inspiration in the initial post, just following those features which are common to magazine layouts - graphic style, bold headlines, no shadows.

 

Thanks - Good challenge!!

 

OHHHH EMMM GEEEE -- it feels like this was so hard -- searching for some sort of element that can be flat, a super simple banner to help text show up on the page -- and NO shadows (so hard not to go play).
