Dimensions:	350 x 347
Description:	Okay, this is a combination of a few different challenges. It started off with 2/14 - mountains of stash challenge to use red and Metal (already had the pic picked out). Then i found a few of the GO challenges to incorporate into the LO. #14 - hidden journaling and #18 - use 3 or more ribbons. So this is what i came up with - this is my favorite pic of my Grandpa. There really is an equal amount of red around the edges, just got cut off with scanning. PP - Paper Loft, Daisy D's, and Provo Craft Ribbons - SEI and WM Word and Letter stickers - Pebbles Inc. Metals - brads and school clip - Karen Foster Number stamps - Making Memories Envelope - Paper Creations Other - Staples and Mica I stamped the numbers and edges of the mica and then embossed with black embossing powder - punched holes and used the large brads. I pretty much inked everything on the LO even the twill. Journaling just talks about how i don't want to forget the things i remember about my Grandpa and that if i didn't write them down soon i would forget. Just want to say thanks for the challenge - don't think this is what i would of come up with if it wasn't for the challenges! Good luck to everyone. Ribbon is not that bright IRL!

This is wonderful, simply wonderful!! I like how you've put it altogether. I know it's a good layout if I'm smiling while looking at it, and I'm smiling!

What a fabulous page! The photo is wonderful and really stands out and is the focus. The colors you selected compliment the feel of this LO perfectly.

(P.S. the image-size looks fine)
