Lately I've found myself gravitating toward the funky, artistic layouts that are sometimes a bit messy (both in appearance and in assembly). Lilithis someone who pulls this look off beautifully. I chose this LO of hers to lift:

And here's my take:

I loved how Lilith used clothing tags on her page--I always save the funky ones (like this monkey one from Paul Frank). I loved the design, the splatters, the layering of misc stuff. And this LO was QUICK! Gotta love that!

Hope you will be as inspired as I am by Lilith's beautiful page.

You'll have until the 30th of April to upload your inspired layout.

I love this, Michelle!

How do you get your spritz so defined, and not just a mist?

This was such a fun LO to lift. And so super fast (like 20 minutes start to finish fast, with the help of an old MM mini album kit I had sitting in my stash!). For the spritz, I unscrewed the bottle and used the pump stem (you know the tube that goes down into the bottle--that thing probably has a name??) to flick the color onto the page--easier and more controlled for me than misting. When I mist, I somehow always mess up and have to do it twice or be stuck with my results. This was way less intimidating for me!
