Here is my sample layout...
To create the background I used a Crafters Workshop 'Houndstooth' template and 'Bell Bottom Jeans' glimmermist, then a Kaisercraft 'Frames' transparency. I decided to use the jeans pocket as I sooooo love denim and thought it would make a great feature instead of using pp and also allowed me to tuck some extra pics in it.
It took great restraint for me to keep the embellishments to a minimum on this one but I did include a Lovelybug Bits n Bobs button (from the 'Just Blues' set - I stretched the fabric really thin to make sure the metal base would shine through a bit to give it a more masculine feel)...
I would like to also mention that this LO was inspired by a gorgeous one I saw recently done by Melinda Thompson for Stuck Sketches. You can see the original LO on Melinda's blog HERE. Thanks for the inspiration Min! X
