Soooooo... when I saw this photo
and learned that is was the PHOTO INSPIRATION for this week's
Crafty Ho Challenge...
I thought, Me-on-my!!! Whatever will I do?!?!?!
Shhhhhh! Please don't tell, but I didn't even know who "Lance" is. I had to google it.
According to wikipedia (not the most reliable online source, I know), Lance Armstrong is an American former professional road racing cyclist who is best know for wining the Tour de France a record seven consecutive times, after having survived cancer. WOW! That's impressive!
I had some ideas of directions to go, but upon searching my stamping stash, I couldn't find a single cycling image, nor did anything else really jump out at me. Then I happened upon a cute little fellow - a Lori Boyd Puddle Jumper - and an idea was born.
For my take on the Photo Inspiration, I chose to color my image with the colors of the clothing Lance is wearing in the picture. It works for me!
I didn't think the card was quite complete, though...
