This is the picture that I had blown up and framed for Ross (I had it enlarged to 24x36 at Scrapbookpictures.com and printed onto metallic paper).
I took it while we were at the beach for my Sister's wedding in August. It was super-foggy out, which ended up being a perfect white backdrop - so I didn't have too much editing to do in Photoshop.
He is really, really crazy about music and has been playing guitars for a couple of years now (he's really good).
And to answer a few questions...
1. Josh got me a really cool, engraved locket (and he put my favorite picture of each of the kids in it - it holds four photos). I spotted it in a catalog probably 8 months ago and pointed it out to him, but then completely forgot about it. I'm all about sentimental gifts.
2. I got him an XM radio system (he loves talk radio and college sports and to him, an XM radio system is a sentimental gift).
3. The "J" Word kits are still available (and the Scrapbooking Outside the Box kits are up now too). I don't have any set amount of time that I run the kits for - just until I am ready to retire the class and/or have run out of kits.
4. The OSU Beavers are orange & black. The Uof O Ducks are green & yellow (meant to answer that one a long, long time ago - sorry).
I try really hard not to miss any questions on here (but I know I sometimes do), so if you've got a question - feel free to leave it here in the comments section and I'll try to get to it by the end of the week.
Have a great day.
Great Gift for Ross! How did you frame it? Was it matted on foam core? Let me know cause I wanted to do some big photos but thought the cost of framing would be a lot.
Thanks and Happy NEW YEAR!

That picture looks really cool! I'm sure it looks even better framed and on the wall.
