Another page for scraptathlon that received very few votes. :p Oh well, I love it anyway. :) The challenge was to show the masculine and feminine aspects of our life, and I chose to talk about my relationship with my husband.


The journaling is a poem written by me and says:
*****
He's the him to my her
The nerd to my geek
He's the laugh to my cry
And the calm to my freak


He's the air to my lungs
He's the sun to my moon
He's the pull to my push
The words to my tune


He's the soft to my loud
He's the up to my down
He's the laugh to my cry
And the Smile to my frown


He's the best of my worst
He's the wise to my fool
He's the love of my heart
He's the warm to my cool


He's the one that I need
He's the boy to my girl
He's the read to my write
And the sun to my world


He's the blue to my pink
He's the man to my wife
He's the spark in my dark
He's the best of my life
****


To create the large background picture I desaturated my pic all the way, increased the contrast, and increased the brightness so it was almost white. Then I just printed it and ran it back through the printer to put the poem on it.


The blue and pink pictures I desaturated all the way, increased the contrast a LOT, and then upped the blue on one and a mix of red and green on the other to get the pinkish tint.
