Lipstick Chick December Challenge: What's Your Style?

For December's challenge on the True XOXO Girls blog, I created a layout which depicts my Modern Rocker side. Since all of the Lipstick Chicks have chosen a different style there is, again, a ton of inspiration over there so check it out and get lifting! This month's challenge is sponsored by Candy Shoppe Designs, who have the most amazing kits that you will just drool over.

I began here:

and sketched a little idea for my layout:

 ...feeling very pleased with my little pun. Then I got making:

Almost everything on the page is reclaimed - a postcard, a beermat, a good handful of clothing tags. It is possible to keep it simple. You just have to save everything you come across, in case it comes in useful!

Some of the stars are raised up with foam pads to give body to an otherwise quite flat page (I didn't use any patterned paper except for the Basic Grey lined paper from which I cut the stars).

And most of my title I wrote by hand:

The thick cardboard and the beermat added further body to the page:

Actually, it didn't turn out at all how I had imagined. I think at this point, after trying this style twice, I can say that even if I am a fashion chameleon, I'm not necessarily a scrapbooking chameleon. I much prefer this style, which - although disordered - is softer, more visually stimulating... and more me.
