Hi everyone and welcome to the Double Scraplift challenge.

Whenever I run low on inspiration, I love browsing the galleries and finding new ideas to incorporate into my layouts, or even scraplift.
That is what we'll be doing in this challenge.

I've chosen 2 layouts from our gallery that we will use as inspiration for a new layout. Here's what I want you to do:

1. Take inspiration from BOTH layouts to create your page.
2. Tell me what inspired you from each layout.

Your layout can be about any topic you choose.


First up is Spring is in the air! by Westina

Spring is in the air!

Spring is in the air!

My cats Blob and Benj.

The second is April Challenge 1: Quote by our newest CheeryO LauraD.

Double scraplift of...

I was inspired by the block alpha, scattered flowers and stamps/paint from layout 1 and the multiple background papers and single photo in layout 2.


Now it's your turn. I look forward to seeing how these two layouts inspire you!


RULES:
- Use the two provided layouts as inspiration to create a single new layout.
- Please tell me what inspired you from each layout.
- Please use 80% Oscraps products that are currently in the store.
- Non-Oscraps products or retired O designer products can be used whether the designer is selling elsewhere or not.

2. This will open your gallery, simply click on the layout you require, then scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click the Continue button.

I wanted to use the photo with the inspiration of diagonal lines, but when it came down to it, I couldn't use papers to tell the story better than the big photo did, so I went with it. The word art using alphas in the strip of course is inspired by the other page. :p

This is my cats Gizmo and Ninja looking chilled as normal
From the first photo I took inspiration from the subject of the layout - cats, the positioning of the photos, the text being vertical and there being a small cluster (I put mine top right though instead of bottom left.
From the second photo I took inspiration from the layout of the background papers

I used the buttons, butterfly, alpha and some greenery to lift the first page and multiple papers and flowers from the second.
This was quite a challenge for me and took the longest of them all to come together but I loved the challenge!

From Template 1: The cats remind me of Sylvester waiting to pounce on Tweetie. "I tawt I taw a Poody tat."
From Template 2: I got the inspiration to use a quote.

I was inspired to use the dark, busy background and the size and position of the photo from the first layout. Using a single photo with a quote, the round element below the photo, and the vine in the corner came from the second.

Ever since I saw this quote in the NYT a few weeks ago, I've been trying to think how to use it...

I was inspired by the flowers and cat photos on the first layout and by the different background papers and the single photo on the second layout.

Love this challenge! From the first layout I took the diagonally placed cat photos and a funky title font; from the second photo I took those fabulous paper layers, the tape securing the photos, and the journaling on a card.
