This month we will be using the Barbie Movie Soundtrack album cover for inspiration. I found a lot of inspiring things on this album cover… the colors, the one large photo design, black & white stripes mixed with the blue and the hot pink, the white lettering over the photo, the big circle, the "pinking shear" edges, the hot pink sparkle, the extracted photo, her arm sticking outside the bounds of the circle frame… there's a lot there. You may use any of those things or any other inspiration that you get from this album cover. Just let us know what it was that inspired you.




***And there is a BONUS this month! If your layout has a Barbie theme then I will enter your submission twice!***

Open to paper, digi, hybrid, cards, crafts, planners, or anything else you are inspired to create.

Multiple submissions are allowed up to a limit of 3, but EACH SUBMISSION MUST USE A DIFFERENT INSPIRATION FROM THE ALBUM COVER.

You may combine with one other challenge that allows combining and you may also add to the Prompts Challenge.

Post your submissions to this thread by JuLY 31st and a random winner of all participants will receive a $5 ACOT GC from me!

Most importantly, HAVE FUN! I hope you can all find something inspiring in this album cover art!

Here is my page. My layout was inspired by the black and white stripes mixed with the blue and hot pink, the blue background, and the design of a large hot pink circle containing a large photo. I also used the Barbie theme as the photo is of my sweet JJ dressed in pink at Maddie's Barbie birthday party last year.

Super gorgeous layout! Love the colors and inspiration from the Barbie album! Thanks for the fun challenge!

Super fun inspiration!

Sounds like FUN with lots of inspiration and bright colors.

Oh this is fun!  Great colors and that LO of JJ is adorable!

combined with 3 in a row challenge.  the pinked circle inspired me to stamp chevrons, giving a similar look and the brads are for the circle shape.  plus the colors and stripes  and it's a Barbie layout!



 

The pink and glitter inspired me, I don't know why the photo has more of a purple tone to it but really it is pink. Thanks for the challenge.

Here is mine, don't know if the qualifies for the bonus but they are in swimsuits like a Barbie would be!
My inspiration was the sun and the pink and blue sky 

this will be an easy one if I can just find photos. I collect Barbies and have over 350 still in original boxes unopened.

What better photos to use than those from when we saw the Barbie movie in the theaters??

Wow that is awesome! You need to scrap THAT!

for inspiration, I used the colors and black and white stripes. I also used barbie theme because this was a barbie birthday party.

combined with stinkerbelle's sketchathon

Here is another one from me. This time the stripes and circle inspired me.

Took inspiration from the colors pink and black, the stripes, and the circle.  Combined with Where in the World is Carmen San Diego.


 

I was inspired by the pinking shear edged circle... and the black and white... This was a fun one!

My LO with a bonus
 

Oh I had fun with this!  I love bright pink and black together.  I scraplifted SharmonP!  I was inspired by the bright pink and black (touch of blue), the black stripes, the pink “seal” 

Inspired by the big circle in the middle. Also, this is summer themed, like the image. And people always say my daughter looks like Barbie. 

Inspired by the zigzag edged circle to make a big, round shape like in the picture. Also,  again, my daughter is a little Barbie.

I thought this background looked like the sky in the image. And instead of a pink circle, I used a pink heart. A summery layout, too. And again, my daughter is mini-Barbie.
