Gettin Sketchy



Well I had a challenge before me to scrap a lo based on my outfit. This is part of the Scrap u courses over @ Scrap-Friendzy (you should come join us) So I chose to scrap from my outfit that I wore on College Colors Day(my fave workday of the year)
The lo is based on the awesome sketch by Diana over at Sketchy Thursdays (love those sketches to pieces-they have produced some of my best stuff) I decided this time to keep the lo very simple (very very hard thing to do for me). So I used all the elements from my outfit---denim of course from my jacket, the bling in the flower and the dots for the title-from my shirt and my jacket, the orange from my shirt and the vols trim matches my watch, and just in case you are wondering "What on earth is that black circle in the flower" Well its a tire, I save all the ones I find laying around. (My oldest tears apart every car and truck he ever gets-DRIVES ME CRAZY) I used it becuz it represents the black on my flip flops (BTW is not in the pic) and of course it goes with my photo-LOL! Thanks for looking and hey maybe you should give it a try too-its soo fun!

Okay so I didnt realize the pic's were so small that you couldnt read the journaling. Let me explain the lo-cuz I hate when I see peoples work and you dont understand the lo. One year we had to take my dad's Explorer to Knoxville for a game (cant remember why) anyways the last thing he said to me was "Dont put all that UT crap all over my Explorer"---YEA RIGHT! So we took a picture and framed it for him and put it on his desk at work-hehehehe

  2. Tami, that page is awesome! I really love that you used a tire for the flower center - I remember when my son was young and I found toy car parts all over the house, too!
