Michelle Ward's Street Team Crusade for February


Crusade #37 - XXX's & OOO's - Since February is Valentine's month, our challenge was to do a spread with the letters X and O.  I learned something interesting -- it seems rather obvious, but XXX's and OOO's are not part of everyone's culture.  I finally succombed to spray paints.  I tried not to go wild and purchase in every color.  I only have so much room to store, but it was tempting!!!!

    Hi Marilyn,
    WOW! Your pages are beautiful! I like the way you added pink to your palette of red, black and white. There's alot of nice detail in your layering, too. I think spray-paint is addictive - in a good way.

    Oh, this is beautiful! I really like all the layers. Spray painting is so addictive! I'd do more of it if we didn't have so much wind where we live.

    Great layout! And as for the spray paint thing, it does seem to be a growing affliction huh? You could always just build more storage space ;-0

    Marilyn,
    I love the gradation of color in your spread and how it flows from red to pink, gray to black. Quite nice!

    PS Thanks for the comment on my spread.
