WEEKEND WORKOUT 5 - MUSIC

                

                                         
 Hello, Ali here,

It is my turn for the Weekend workout this weekend, and I've decided to combine my love of scrapbooking with my passion for music!

I have what some might call an eclectic taste in music, ranging from Punk to Dusty Springfield, Linkin Park to Paloma Faith, I love it all!

 
 

When the scrapbooking mojo decides to take a holiday, it is often a tune or two that will help me to get back on track, either the song title, album name or even a snatch of lyric can inspire me to create a layout or two, in fact, I do have a song lyric album full of lyric inspired Layouts!

 

I hope you enjoy our weekend workout-and that you can find some musical inspiration.

Hi Dolly here - and what a great challenge Ali has set.

I love the idea of a page made using a musical theme for inspiration.

People are often surprised when they find out my favourite album of all time is Bat Out Of Hell. I'm a not very secret rock chick at heart!

It was fun to combine my love of that album with my love of my wicked little Bengal boy. Many people know that Fiki and his sister are nicknamed the CFH (Cats from hell) as when they were little they really truly were little monsters.

So the page inspired by the album should come as no surprise.

Hello, it's Eleanor, and these weekend workout challenges are really working for me, haven't lost any weight yet, but I've certainly been using up some stash!

I'm afraid this song is not particularly deep and meaningful, just a bit of fun which seemed to suit the photos, and I'm sorry if you spend the day with this catchy little song in your head, tee hee.

Lots of my own style of chicken scratch stitching (using up those old fibres we all used to collect) and a crochet EGG, made from white dishcloth cotton, tea dyed.

Seems I must be on a roll, for I managed another song inspired layout, a simple one, just holes, stitching and a handcut (had forgotten how much I love handcutting) title:

Here it is upside down, to save any cricked necks:

 Hiya Claireliz here, with my take on Ali's Challenge.

I love using song lyrics or titles on my pages & as soon as I saw this challenge I got a certain tune stuck in my head. Its by the Libertines & called What Became of the Likely Lads? The picture that goes with it is one taken on my 18th birthday (waaaay back in 1998). Its me & my closest 3 friends, we don't see each other as much as we used to which is why the title seemed appropriate to me...

 

I would also like to add that the one on the far right (as you look at the screen) is my hubby, he wasn't then, we were just friends but about 5 years after this photo was taken we got married; the one on the other end was our best man & the one inbetween hubs & I was one of our ushers.
