And now.......
ON TO THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE!!!!

The fourth Monday of the month is movie week at Scrapping The Music! This month we are paying tribute to the movie "Final Fantasy" by featuring the song "Every Time We Touch" by Cascada! Check out the video below...

We hope you enjoy creating with this song as much as we did! To see the full lyrics, click on the tab at the top of the page.

Here are the design team layouts for "Every Time We Touch..."


I was so excited to capture this photo of Willie watching TV with Michael. His little paw on Michael's arm is so expressive of his love for his "dad."





I used the lyrics "I want this to last forever" for my layout about the country I love most of all. When I stayed there I enjoyed every second and hoped my vacation will last forever, but unfortunately they never did.





I took this photo of John and me in a mirror at the Lourve in Paris this past fall. This romantic song made me think of our romantic trip and how much I need him by my side.



I loved the lyrics, "Your Heart is My Sky." I could have never thought of beautiful words to express feelings. It made me think of how my daughter lights up when she smiles. These pictures are from her Valentine's party at her school.



I too was really caught by the lyrics "your heart is my sky." I saw this photo my oldest daughter had taken of herself, and I thought about all the things she's struggled with in the past few years; but through it all, her heart has become even more beautiful and deep. The hearts of all of my children are my sky, for sure. :)





I didn't get far into the song to know exactly what lyrics I wanted to use...
My Mom will have been gone for 9 years in March, but
I still hear her voice : .)


Bina

I almost never scrap in pink. This time with the picture of my son being a girl for carnival I had the chance. When he finished with dressing up, my heart almost stood still. I was so amazed. Can you believe how he looks?

Check out the lyrics by clicking on the tab at the top of the page for more inspiration. There are plenty of scrappable lyrics there, even if you don't feel like scrapping about a man! (LOL)

Here is what the design team came up with for "That Man..."


Michelle




The lyric "twisting round on a carousel" brought back wonderful memories of my husband's and my recent trip to Paris. I love carousels, and Paris had the very best ones . . . especially at night!



I'm not sure if I ever told my husband that he is that man who made me forget all my childish plans I had for my future, now he knows...



Patricia
21 years married and counting ;) This song inspired me to make a quick list of some tidbits about that man of mine.

Now it's Your Turn!

ON TO THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE!!!

We have a super fun song for you this week!!! One that I think we can all relate to! The song is "Art" by Tanya Davis; and not only is it an awesome song, but check out the super-creative video...


How fun is that? We were really inspired by this song, and we hope you are too! You can read the lyrics by clicking the tab at the top of the page.

Here are the design team projects for "Art..."


The lyrics to this song remind me of something I would write about in my daily journal, so I decided an art journal page would be the perfect place for them!


Sharon
When I saw this song's lyrics, I thought "yes, my heart loves art." And it starts with a photograph!



I could relate to the words of this song so much..."trying to follow my heart." So I gave myself permission to just play...




I have lots of photos taken during my sightseeing tours through Berlin, Dusseldorf, Cologne or even my hometown. There's no better song than "Art" to gather all the sculptures and artsy things, isn't it.




In each envelope is a little letter from the smallest son in our family. Just some kind words for each of us in his own spelling (just in second grade). He was so excited about Christmas.




Now it's Your Turn!
What inspires you about this song? Show us in a scrapbook layout, art journal page, or anything else you are inspired to create!

We would love to have you play along with us in February at Scrapping the Music!

Are you ready for our first February challenge???

Oh my goodness we have a catchy little number for you this week! It's "Hey Soul Sister" by Train! Check out the video below...


This is one of those songs that it's hard to stop singing! Check out the lyrics by clicking on the tab at the top of the blog. We hope you are as inspired as we were!



Here are the design team's layouts for "Hey Soul Sister..."



Linda
She's my Soul Sister! Really for true!!! : .)



Patricia
Whether it's something good, bad, or just in between...I fill up Linda's Inbox...probably daily...thanks, my friend, Linda!





The subject of my layout is the sisterhood of my mother and aunt, my sister and me and my daughters and how different they are. Not quite sure that we are all soulsisters *smile*




Michelle
My favorite lyric in the song is "Ain't that Mister Mister on the radio?" It's just so random and quirky! This photo of my sweet hubby Michael and his dad Stan seemed the perfect match for the lyric. There they are - Mister Rydell and Mister Rydell. So alike inside and out!


Sharon


What a great song! Taking my cue from Linda and Patricia, I really wanted to let my Scrapping the Music "soul sisters" know how much they mean to me! Thank you all!!!!



Bina
My best scrappy friend, I loved the idea to scrap this theme...



Jennifer
"Watching You"- check out my blog for more close up pictures!
