PacMan

After three weeks of no scrapping (we've been painting again - this time my oldest son's rooms in the basement), I finally got a few hours of scrap time yesterday. This is the result...

Journaling reads: "When we first married, one of our favorite fun dates was to go to the arcade and play games. One of Jerry's favorites was PacMan. So, for Christmas 1982, I bought him a hand held PacMan game. He loved it and would play for hours. Amazingly, nearly 30 years later, it still works! These photos were taken at Susan and Butch's house in Pensacola."

I about drove Sarah crazy while I was working on this layout. I had to keep turning the game on and off to see the screen again while I was drawing the copy of it onto the black cs. Every time I turned it on again, the little song would play - and there is no volume control! LOL!!! I used the swiss cheese punch for the edges and cut out a frame and backed it with yellow, then layered it onto the black. The white lines, dots and letters are done with a Signo pen. The bottoms of the little "ghosts" are cut with Fiskars heartstrings scissors. The PacMen are circle punches, and the stars are punches. For the journaling I turned my background black and did white lettering. The red plaid pp is really old 8-1/2 x 11 paper that I got years ago, but it matched Jerry's shirt almost perfectly! I guess if you keep something long enough, you'll eventually find a use for it. Thanks so much for looking!
