Give a Cheer
An attempt at lifting Renea's fabulous layout seen here:

When I saw her layout, certain elements of it inspired me and was symbolic in terms of the layout I was thinking of making.
This is my layout created for the latest "Stalker" challenge over at Scraps of Darkness. The challenge was to scrap someone or something that was there for you during a difficult time in your life. I chose to scrap Charles. The journaling says it all. "I met Charles at a time in my life when I was headed down the wrong road and in a very dark spot. Through sharing his experiences, enthusiasm, music and love, he changed and saved my life."
"The Wrong Way" is actually a title of one of Charles' songs. The city is symbolic and represents Dallas TX where Charles has a lived a good portion of his life. The stars and moon represent guidance from him during a very dark period in my life.
As required by the challenge, I hand stitched on this layout around the black center. The city scene was cut from my cricut and I sparkled it out with some stickles glitter glue (also required of the challenge). I embossed the word "wrong" and inked the edges to give it more dimension. The stars are grunge board and altered using crackle paint, ink and stickles.
I LOVE this photo of Charles. It was captured during the summer of 2010. He was jammin on his Strat and I was taking various shots. Love how this pic came out.
I used the Scraps of Darkness June Kit which featured the Zooology line by Bo Bunny. MelindaK puts together some super fabulous kits over there. Love Scraps of Darkness!
Thanks for spreading positivity!
