Using Inspiration
Here is an example of inspiration Lynnette saw on Pinterest and the resulting page.
Lynnette says, “The design of Guitar Hero was inspired by a piece of art I pinned awhile back on Pinterest. I especially loved the repeating and overlapping scallops so I translated those to my page by layering patterned paper circles over one another. This layout is also a great example of an awesome themed digital kit inspiring the topic of my layout – it just begged me to scrap that photo.”
