This is Nena's Truth or Dare Journal. She had us take a truth and a dare. The truth I choose was to tell about an embarassing kitchen moment. The dare was to use lots and lots of texture on the page.
This layout recalls a day during the summer in HS when my dad asked me to fry some frozen french fries for lunch. I didn't turn off the stove correctly and the skillet caught fire. I did try to use a fire extingusher, but hit the fire in the wrong spot and it jumped up to the vent-a-hood above. There was plastic on the hood since it was not drawing air, but blowing and that started to melt. I finally got the fire out with baking soda, but there was some damage. Since we lived in a parsonage, the church had to know. Boy did I get teased for years afterward about cooking fries.
For this LO I used lots of scraps as well as some yummy metallic pp that Nancyroo gave me (thanks Nancy!) Lots of torn and curled edges a little ribbon, some thickers and ink all add texture. The pictures are from the internet and I cut the boring white background away from the fire extingusher and sanded the edges of the others to add another layer of texture. So this CJ goes in the box and to the PO tomorrow. Headed your way, Cheri!
