PGAD 2/17: Be Inspired (Scrap Challenge)

[Kiana]

Hey sweet friends!!!!!!! Kiana here to keep our PGAD celebration going with Day 17!!!!!!!

This month is all about love of course, and you know I'm all about showing love to my girls. The Sugarbabes. If you've been around here long enough and read any of my blogs, then you know I am drooling over their pages and can't sing their praises enough. Week in and Week out they are in here creating some stunning pages for us and I wish I had all the time in the world to hit the gallery to comment and show love. I seriously LOVE every one of the Babes and love being part of the team!

Today's PGAD scrap challenge is an Inspiration Challenge and it's pretty easy. I've browsed through the gallery and found Four layouts from some amazing Babes to BE INSPIRED by. This could anything from the title to the patterns to the colors or the mood. Choose [ONE] of the layouts below as your inspiration and create YOUR layout for this challenge! I don't want you to scraplift it, unless you really want to of course, just let the muse inspire you.
(all the pages are linked to the gallery just in case you want to leave the ladies some love ♥)

Here are your sources of inspiration:
A: Eclectic Clusters [Remember by Sheri]


B: Monochromatic C&S [Big Pencil by Rebecca]


C: Grad Grid [Sept ToT by Jaye]


D: Anchored Family [Cover 2020 by Kim E]



I chose layout [B] Monochromatic C&S and was inspired by the gorgeous Blue tones and the C&S page design and here's my layout I created:

Monochromatic and verticality

Kiana ... what's C&S?

[HeatherB]

I was inspired by Layout A by SeattleSheri: the rings, the clusters, and the scatters.

I chose monochromatic for my page. Thanks for hosting!

[CindyB]

Layout C: Grid and Stars

[Kim Hansen]

This was so fun! I have never done a monochromatic layout and it was very difficult for me. I thought I had to add some green in it to pop! Haha. I was also inspired by the clusters; it's sure been fun on this birthday journey this year for me. It's my first one being involved in the forum. I'm hooked. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

[sbrandt809]

I was inspired by the 3rd page, the Grid Grad.

[AshleyMilfd]

Inspired by the monochromatic layout (which I've never done)

[CathQuillScrap]

I decided to do the monochromatic one but ended up doing the clusters instead.

[beccasue]

I went with B: Monochromatic C&S [Big Pencil by Rebecca]. I liked the way it went straight a crossed the page and the use of one color group.
