Ad Inspiration Challenge!
Oct 10th, 2008 by jjstar
Are you ready for a fun challenge? This Friday’s Challenge is to use an advertisement to inspire a layout or project. We are surrounded by inspiration everyday as we drive down the road, watch television or read a magazine. Use an ad to inspire your color choice, positioning of the photos/elements or even just to springboard your layout.
The ad that I used was from the July issue of Parents magazine (yes I’ve been holding onto it for a little while). To get to the final layout I turned the ad 90 degrees:

And here is what I came up with:

Denise also played around with the same ad to make her layout:

You can use this same ad or find one of your own. The challenge is open until next Friday, October 17th. I’m excited to see what everyone creates! Leave a comment with a link to your project or layout. Then next week a random winner will be select to receive a $5 gift certificate to Sugarplum Paperie. Please use mostly Sugarplum goodies. You can find Nicole’s stuff at the Sugarplum Paperie and at The DigiChick. Nicole has had TONS of freebies, so don’t feel like you can’t play because you haven’t been able to shop. Remember, come back before next Friday (10/17)!
