Back to the Future......

LIKE OK, we're here....Welcome to the 80's, and the Official If it's Groovy Blog hop! If you haven't visited the If it's Groovy blog before now is better than ever. Stop on over, meet Deb and all the other talented designers and join us on our first ever Blog hop. We're going back in time and pulling out all the stops. The 80's was a time of excess, fun slang, and bad fashion....TOTALLY! And we're celebrating all of it.

You should have arrived here from Jeanette's blog If not please go back to the If it's Groovy blog and start from there.

Are you up for a challenge.....COOL!
I was a child of the 80's; I loved the music, the movies, and yes even the bad fashion!!!! I remember sitting in my room and dancing all the time, I remember changing from a record player to a "boombox" and getting my first cassette tapes. Little did I know that years later I would still love to hear that music and reminisce. My challenge, if you choose to accept it, is: Who was your favorite band? Did you listen to the Hairbands like Poison and Warrant or were you a girly girl and love Cyndi Lauper? Show me a layout that represents your 80's musical influence. Let me tell you...mine was totally NKOTB (New Kids on the Block) for those of you who aren't familiar! I had everything from books, trading cards, to the dolls and lunch boxes....I was hooked! So here's a little spin on their influence:



You have the next 10 days to complete the challenge and leave a link here on my blog! You will be entered in a drawing for some great prizes (and that DOES include some Raindots) So LIKE good luck, and Stuff :)



From here you will need to visit our Guest Designer Mardi's blog!!!! Safe Travels :)
