<\/a><\/p>\n(And can you believe my son has no\u00a0girlfriend yet?
\nHe’ll be 17 next Sunday and if I were a young girl,
\nI would dribble over such a lad!
\nBut hey, the other one is mine and I hope\u00a0to grow old with him
\nso\u00a0that we can dribble together\u00a0in the home for the elderly!)\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0 So I asked my men <\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Two lay outs???? Huh???<\/p>\n Well, that wasn’t my intention – I will explain further on – \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0 …it’s not a \u00a0<\/p>\n It’s\u00a0a traditional-nothing-wrong-with-it lay out,\u00a0BUT my guys are way\u00a0from “traditional”… they are exceptional, incomparable, explosive, hip and hot (pardon me – getting over excited here)\u00a0so this picture deserved\u00a0better.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n I \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n But beeing\u00a0the perfectionist that I am\u00a0– I started over!\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0 For the background I scanned\u00a0an old record cover my love had,\u00a0but\u00a0before “This is not originally\u00a0my record!\u00a0I would never, ever, handle a record \u00a0 I wanted \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n The three \u00a0<\/p>\n So I ended up with two lay outs! And what can\u00a0YOU do with Vanessa’s sketch? And, last but not least, you have to take a glance at the NEWSFLASH GO CREATE\u00a0this weekend!
\n<\/a>
\nAs soon as I
\nlaid\u00a0my eyes
\nupon this sketch;
\nchallenge #130
\nover at Lotus
\nPaperie this week<\/a>;\u00a0
\nI knew I wanted
\nto make the scrap
\nI had in mind
\nfor a few weeks,
\nusing\u00a0a quote
\nfrom Dave Mason.<\/p>\n
\nto pose for me,
\nwhat they
\nwillingly did!
\nLove you guys!!!<\/p>\n
\nbut first take a look. Which one do you prefer?\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nThis was my
\nfirst lay out.
\nI thought the
\npattern paper
\nwould go great
\nwith the old
\nrecord covers,
\nand the colours
\nare fine…<\/p>\n
\nflopped lay out
\nor something,
\nit just wasn’t
\nRock ‘n’ Roll<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nworked
\nquite
\nsome
\ntime
\non
\nthis
\none
\nthough,
\nsee
\nall
\nthe
\nlayers?<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nhe let me do that he made me promise that I would\u00a0tell you all this:<\/p>\n
\nand it’s cover with such negligence!\u00a0I got this record years ago from a friend
\nwho didn’t like the music,\u00a0and\u00a0the cover\u00a0was already tore and taped like this!”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
\nWe, scrappers,
\nare funny people!
\nI LOVED the old
\ntape on the edges:
\ntotally Rock ‘n’ Roll.<\/p>\n
\nthe same
\neffect and
\nso I used
\ndistress ink
\nto get the old
\nlook back,
\nand put
\nreal tape
\nover it again!<\/p>\n<\/a>
\nTo highlight
\nthe photo’s
\nI\u00a0made a layer
\nusing vellum
\nwhich I tore
\nagain, to show
\nthe old cover
\nbeneath.<\/p>\n
\nsmall photo’s
\nat the bottom
\nof the lay out\u00a0
\nare covers
\nof albums
\nmy men love!<\/p>\n
\nI totally prefer the second (“record cover”) –\u00a0and so do my men –\u00a0
\nit\u00a0has a prominent place in our living room right now.
\n(Whenever I’m satisfied over a lay out, I expose it on our sideboard table.
\nOther lay outs go straight into an album.)<\/p>\n
