Hey, it's Lynette Daniel saying TGIF! to our Scrappin' Sports & More Bloggers! I'm sharing my brand new layout of St. Bede Academy's own Cross Country star Leo Lopez. Go Bruins! I took some perfect fall photos of Leo and used the glorious green tones in the (Girls' Rule) Golf! papers to match SBA's school colors. I used the backside for the outside border and the right side green & white "stripes" for the flag strips of journaling of his score/rank. I streaked the Kraft cardstock with green paint and gave it a flow~ but cool masculine grunge look and topped it with a die cut X. Tried to replicate the "X" (cross) throughout the layout by using green staples on the journaling tags. Title is painted (chip) grungeboard.
Have a great weekend SSnM fans and hope this inspires you to try something new!

This one is visually interesting with the positioning of the "X". Rather than just placing an X you have caught the spirit of a runner with the legs of the X stepping over the photo. The contrast of the dynamic letterform X against the serif lettering is good. And I like the idea of having some empty space to play with. One doesn't have to always "fill the square" to make things work.
It looks great. Love the big X straddling the photo.
