Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration September Scrapbook Challenge: Rockin' the Race

Good morning and what a beautiful weekend and start to the week!  I love this time of year, you can open the windows and just enjoy the cooler weather and relax.  I'm back with a another sketch challenge, this time it's the Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration blog September scrapbook sketch challenge.  I've been slacking a little in my memory keeping goal of a page a week so it was great to play along with this sketch that Bree gave us and used it to make a page for one of my spring races.  This was a fun race, not only was it my first spring race of the season (after training in one of the coldest winters I've ever experienced which provided some challenges).  Not only did I get to run with one of my neighbor friends but after the race I met up with Randy, a friend from college that I hadn't seen in years, which was great!

 

My Digital Studio made this page nice and easy (it's fun to be able to change and recolor elements and embellishments that would be much harder to do, in traditional scrapbooking).  To start this page I started out with a template page from the Convention 2012 Photobook and then deleted and rearranged elements, changed all the colors and just like that I have a completely different page that works with my pictures.  You could easily mix in some DSP pieces for some of the squares but I had too many pictures (seems to be the store of my life, oh well). 

 

Make sure to go check out all the other great layouts the design team is sharing, so much fun.  Come play along with us and see what you can create!
