Scrappin' Chics Challenge - Inspirational Song Layout

Happy Friday Crafty Friends!

Welcome to a new monthly challenge at The Scrappin' Chics! This month's challenge is to create a layout using your favorite song, or a song that inspires you.

This was truly a challenge for me! I listen to music on the radio, but I'm not "into" music now like I was when I was a teen. So for this challenge I had my teenage daughter help me out. She LOVES music and always has her iPod on! (what teen doesn't?!) She chose the picture, song lyrics, papers, colors, and I just put it all together (with a little design input).

Song:
"I Made It" by Kevin Rudolf

Lyrics:
"I look up to the sky,
and now the world is mine
I've known all my life,
I made it,
I made it!

The inspiration:
My daughter is a great athlete and plays 3 sports (volleyball, soccer, and track) at her school, as well as soccer for a travel club. The picture she chose is that of her and the 4x100m relay team, along with their coach. The picture was taken at a relay meet, and they took 1st place! This relay team went all the way to CIF finals for our county!

Here is her layout:






Details:
* Paper from my stash
* Prima flowers
* Buttons from my stash
* The Twinery "Caribbean" twine
* Thickers chipboard letters
* Glimmer Mist sprays in "Dragonfly" and "Gum Drop"
* eKsuccess punch
* Spellbinders "Labels Four"
* Gel pens in turquoise and green for the doodling

Didn't she do a great job?! We're already working on the next layout.
