All members that participate, please remember to read and follow all the rules for this challenge
so that you can claim your challenge points. Thank you! :flower:

My name is Amy (mimes1), and I'm hosting the Copy Cat Challenge!
This month, I am intrigued by the following layout by Debby (Boatlady). This layout that she created is super fun and energetic. I love the large altered photo, the bright, whimsical colors and the touch of urban graffiti in the background.
Now your job is to scrap-lift this layout!

Here is Debby's layout:

Here is how Debby's layout inspired me:

Thank you for this fun challenge, Amy!
Here is my take. Unfortunately, this birthday was a few years ago ... I was still young back then :cool:

This is such a fun layout. This collection popped into my cart because of this layout! Love the energy. Thank you for playing along with our Copy Cat Challenge!
 
What a fun layout you picked, Amy! There's a lot of inspiration in it. In the end I kept mine colorful and did alter the photo. I enjoyed this challenge a lot. Thanks! Here's mine:

Such a sweet ode to summer! The bright pinks and the sun flare are perfect for little girls in summer! Thank you for participating in our Copy Cat Challenge!
 
So thank you Amy for choosing my page for your scrap-lift challenge. I decided to make one of our son to sort match the one of our daughter.
I love that you joined the Copy Cat Challenge scraplifting you! This one is as wonderful as the first! The car border is a nice touch. The car with the triangles around it really stands out to me too. Thank you for joining in!
 
Here I am with my take on the challenge. I used Artistic Effect Azure and played a little with saturation, eraser, and distressing :)
The bold and saturated colors look perfect for a fall layout - your cluster around the small photo looks great. Thank you for playing along in our Copy Cat Challenge!
