Oh this is soo creative! I like how you re-interpreted the circles as handcuffs! I love the prisoner patch date idea. The doodled cross hatching is funny. The chain is a nice touch! Nothing to improve!
That is just too creative. How great is that to use the handcuffs and the date of your visit as the prisoners patch. Very creative. I love the red and black on the LO also.
I must say when I saw the tiny thumbnail for this LO and saw the handcuffs, I thought "OH NO! Brenda's finally gone and lost her G rating!"... heh.... What a surprise to see what the LO was actually about! I do LOVE your handcuffs though. I think it's awesome you were able to use a metallic paper to really give it that real handcuff feel. Not to mention how fun these pictures are and the creative idea to use the date as an identification number. I've got to say Brenda, you have the most creative ideas.
This is a very original layout. You have added a lot of details which really come together nicely. I like the handcuffs and the hash marks on the side of the page. I esp. like how you did your journaling inside of the handcuffs. Nice work!
Brenda, what can i say? As usual you are super creative! Love the cuffs (your cuffs, I personally dont own a pair "ahem") and the marks on the right side are a great touch! Love how your journaling not only includes your memories of the day, but also some facts that we may not have known unless we visited ourselves. Awesome.
Ummmm, yeah right. Sure, those handcuffs were traced from an internet print-out and not your own private stash. Oooookkkkkk. The pics are great! Your hubby is definitely hamming it up and it is perfect! Lovin' the tally marks. Absolute perfection! You are so freakin' creative to use the date in that prison number. Fantabulous! I love that the handcuffs fulfill the circles on the sketch. Great adaptation for your subject! I'd like to see the key and clock with a thin mat of red before being placed on the bars. It would separate them a bit more. I love this and it makes me want to go watch the movie again. Love it! Prisonrific!
Brenda, this is awesome! Love the handcuffs, great way the tie the circles in the sketch to the subject of your page. I dig the various photos & images & the slightly askew placement/feel of everything here. Even your usually-gorgeous handwriting was given a prison makeover here, appearing rougher, desparate even. The numbers on the right are to DIE for. I agree w/ Jess, would love a little inking on the red to dirty this up more. Love this!
Brenda, this is so cool! Love the handcuffs, the clock, the number/date, the photos! You did great job on the challenge! It looks like you had fun at the Rock.
Brenda! This is so creative, wonderful, fabulous, great! I absolutely love those handcuffs.. and they go perfect with the sketch, and an awesome addition considering the subject of the LO. I love the little pictures you used as fill-ins. Those pictures look great. The only thing I wasn't sure about was the red background.. but I think maybe if you inked the edges it'd give it more of the jail cell feel. The journaling in the handcuffs looks great and the tallie marks are a cute little addition.
This is for MyNitza's SH Member Hosted Challenge which was to complete a lo inspired by Pencillines Sketch #41. The "prisoner's patch" number is actually the date of our visit. The handcuffs were traced from an internet printout. The bradon the clock is from MyNitza's birthday stash. (Thank you, dahling!) There is also a small info sheet tucked underneath the picture of my schrubby hamming it up with a souvenir cup. Journaling is written on transparency sheets. Once I get a transparency marker, I will redo the writing to make it neater. Top journaling reads: We took an audio tour of Alcatraz that featured the voices of former inmates, correctional officers, and residents reminiscing about life on the island. It was very entertaining and informative. Although it was a beautiful summer afternoon in the city, everything was so much colder on the prison grounds. That didn't keep us from having a great time and you made for such a silly JAILBIRD! Bottom journaling reads: On the morning of June 12, 1962, guards discovered dummy heads in the bunks of 3 inmates, Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin. The men were never found and their intricate plan was later made famous by Clint Eastwood inthe movie, "Escape from Alcatraz".
