"Smile Selfie Time" Layout by DT Claire

Today's  inspiration is a non school themed layout created by DT Claire,

inspired by our 

"Back To School" Stash Challenge:

Claire shared this about her reveal:

"I used My Mind's Eye Chalk Studio II to create this layout. For my stash items: I used chalkboard paper for the background from list A; and alphas, papers clips, chalkboard embellishments, file folders, and numbers from list B.

This layout is from our San Diego trip we took this summer. It is always a challenge for me to create layouts during back to school days. But I am always up for a challenge and thinking outside the box. I thought these photos in a bank vault went very well with the chalkboard theme. I can't wait to see what you do with the back to school stash challenge. 

And it doesn't have to be school themed."

Claire's awesome take on our "Back to School" Stash Challenge is an excellent example of how thinking out of the box, will allow you to use various themed items in your stash to create various types of pages.

Inspired yet to dig out your school themed supplies to create a page and share with us?  

We would love to see what you come up with!

Thank you for visiting us today and make sure you stop back by tomorrow for more Design Team inspiration!

Happy Monday!

Today's inspiration is a wonderful layout inspired by our

"Back to School" Stash Challenge

created by DT Nicole:

Nicole shared this with us about her layout:

"I will admit, this one was a real challenge. I had to dig really deep for an school picture of mine and found this one. 1984! That was a long time ago! I wanted to keep this layout bright and colorful, reminiscent of childhood in the 80's, so I chose to use papers, including the dictionary pattern, from the Simple Stories' Summer Fresh collection and several fun embellishments from my stash. From the stash list provided, I used alphas, numbers, a paperclip, an apple, a notebook and a pencil. I can't wait to see your take on this challenge!"

"One thing I try not to do is scrap school pictures that look like school pictures; don't ask me why! I admit, I had to really troll around my stash for school supplies but I knew I had some old October Afternoon stash somewhere! Used some journaling cards for hidden journaling and for pops of color, number stickers and an addition card, and the traditional apple, paper clip and the vintage ruler. I had the awesome lined paper and since my son is such a star, I overlaid it with a scrap piece of star transparency! It was his first day of summer school this year and he let me do a mini photo shoot while waiting for the bus Last touch was the MME chalkboard arrow cause I just loved his super sweet smile!"

"The Big Slice" Layout by Steffanie

Hello and thank you for stopping by!

Today's "Back to School" inspiration was created by DT Steffanie!  

Steffanie has put together this awesome page about pizza, using school supplies found in her stash:

And...this is what Steffanie shared with us about her page:

"Another fun challenge! From list A I grabbed a piece of lined paper to use for my background. Then from list B I pulled out a ruler that I die-cut probably two years ago and never ended up using (now I have!), a library card I stamped over a year ago and also never ended up using, a sticker number border from an older collection pack and a couple of paper clips (one regular and one swirled at the upper right corner). For fun, I used my notebook border punch to contribute to the product theme. Finally, what layout of mine would be complete without some alphas for a title? 

There you have it---food and school-themed products together on one page!"
