Challenge #70---Home

OMGoodness!!! Did you see all of last week's layouts! They were so colorful and creative that it left me speechless!!! Thanks to everyone for playing along! The newest layout hanging in our Scrapping the Music Hall of Fame belongs to Lisa Spiegel! Congratulations girl!!! If you have never looked through the Hall of Fame, please take a minute and do so. You will see just how inspirational music can be in the scrapbooking world.

The song for this week's challenge is one had never heard until one of the Design Team members recommended it. We realize it takes a few seconds to get going, but is worth the wait. Make sure you look through the lyrics because there are some amazing lines in there just itching to become words on a page. Don't forget to post a link to your creation in the comments or send an email. Either way, we LOVE hearing from you and seeing what was inspired by this week's song.

Here is what the Design Team has created. Enjoy!!!
