Green eyed monster

This is my LO for the Scrap Happens Critique Group's ugly pp challenge. My partner Nicole had to pick two ugly pp's for me to use. She chose that argyle stuff and the orange stuff. I added the solid green and the pale peach background paper. The journaling says: After my hand surgery on Dec 31st, I visited my scrapbook.com neighbors online and couldn't help how green-eyed with jealousy I felt at their cool pages! I wanted to scrap so badly!

For the argyle stuff, I tried to pretty it up with some glitter, which is hard to see. I also used the green triangles as leaves on the flowers and made the flower centers with it. As you can see, it is a large part of the border, as well and is also used in the photo mat. The word "eyed" is cut from it, too.
I used the orange stuff to mat the journal box, make crinkled paper flowers, and hand-cut flourishes. It is also in the center of the border.
I inked the green letters in the title, after cutting the "eyed monster" out on my Sizzix. The "green" letters are from the dollar store. I changed my picture in PSE 2.0 so that I have green eyes (my eyes are usually brown). I used the journaling genie program to put the journaling in a swirl. I used old crochet mini-doilies that I've had for over ten years! That's right - I'm a hoarder.
This is also for Jan-Feb's U Crack Me Up challenge to make a funny LO.
TFL at this ugly pp! I hope you didn't go blind.
