Dixie Pieces Glee Club Contest- Assignment #2

My 2nd assignment for Dixie Pieces is Alternative Music Here is the challenge for second week of the contest: Alternative Music Challenge Alternative is such a broad term these days, I think it meant much more when I was in the thick of things......but basically....it's someone who's a bit tortured, writes his/her own lyrics, plays his/her own lyrics....DOES NOT lip sync....relates to his/her fans, shares his/her own life experiences with the audience, and most importantly pays homage to THE GREATS who came before him/her and has great respect for them realizing that where you come from is just as important as where you're going! Your challenge this week is to create a layout using one of the following *{TRAIN}* (figured I go easy on you...) songs in your title: Let It Roll Brick by Brick Save the Day Words You Already Know Days Something More Ordinary I Am For Me, It's You Drops of Jupiter In addition to the title, you need to create a layout that

Dixie Pieces Glee Club Contest- Assignment #1

I did my 1st assignment for the contest that is going on right now at Dixie Pieces The assignment was the CLASSIC ROCK Challenge Your first challenge is to create a layout using one of the following Beatles' songs as the title of your layout: Ain't She Sweet I Want to Hold Your Hand A Day in the Life Baby it's You All Together Now Good Day Sunshine Do You Want to Know a Secret PS I Love You Ticket to Ride Love me Do In addition to the title, you need to create a layout that stays true to the genre of Classic Rock. You can interpret that however you want. All we ask is that you include a few sentences of explanation in your forum post when you post your layout. Here is my take on it...I used the title BABY ITS YOU and the photo is my parents before they got married. I used a real vinyl record for the layout and the music sheet to go with the theme I was creating in my interpretation of classic rock Thanks for looking
