This is my lo I did for the JANUARY SCRAPLIFT THE PERSON BEFORE YOU. I was able to lift the very cool lo "Old Woman Smoking Cigar" By: Oc6088, which can be found here: http://www.scrapbook.com/galleries/720755/view/4173261/-1/36/0.html
The pic is of my husband in VA Beach, standing next to a no swearing sign..which means that he had to be careful of his word choices. LOL
I loved the b/w/gray color scheme of the inspiration lo, so I decided to keep that idea and only use color to mat the pic and for the "colorful" part of the title..however, I ended up adding the colorful square "snaps", because the page seemed a little unbalanced with the 2 spots of color. I stamped onto the snaps to tone them down a little and decided to use the Kevin Fowler song - "Pound Sign (#?*!)" on them. http://www.cmt.com/videos/kevin-fowler/571340/pound-sign.jhtml
I started the lo with the gray cs and stamped around the edges to give a little bit of a distressed look to it. I went through my scraps and found a variety of b/w/gray pps to use on the lo. The crossword puzzle pp was from a fresh sheet of pp, but I thought since it was about words, that it would be a fun touch for the lo. The button-y pp I decided to use for the bottom strip, as the original lo had some round embellies on that strip....and because the "button your lip" phrase came to mind when I saw it. LOL I decided to add a title within the circle on my lo, but when I did it looked a little "off", so I added the round alphas and the little tag to the edge of the circle.
Because I cut my diamond pp mat a little weird and the black diamonds looked different on each side of the pic, I added some screw and washer stickers to the one side to take away from the uneven look. I added brads and twine to the washer stickers.
This is, also, for the JANUARY STICKER CHALLENGE. I used alphas from 5 different sets of alpha stickers and I used the screw and washer stickers.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
