This was my submission for the third round over at Scrap-tastic for thier American Idol comp. We had to do a scraplift.
I have been wanting to scrap these pictures of DS 'mowing' the yard with our lawn guy since I took the pictures last summer but haven't been inspired. I loved the nature feel and green Becky used in her l/o and that's when inspiration struck. I made the grass that borders the bottom edge and the bottom of the oval scene, and then I painted the c/s to add depth to them. Then I added the doodle lines on one side and the top to help frame everything. I had just gotten the new Maya Road tree chipboards and thought they would be perfect for this. I covered one with pp and painted the other two. For the journaling block I painted the edges and then added the doodle lines with a green marker. I also stamped a branch on the bottom and added a little chipboard bird. The ribbons and staples was a look I've been wanting to try for a while now. As for the pictures, I really like combining b/w with color so I made the top and bottom b/w and gave the color one a white mat so that it would pop a little more.
