Yesterday I said I would have some soccer inspiration for you all and I guess I could go even more general and say, "here's some sports inspiration" for you. I did this card up for my boys' soccer coaches and then decided to complete a page from Joshua's Spring 08 soccer season using the same papers. The card uses the Fall to Layout #44 and some yummy Jillibean Soup dp. Green card base and twill ribbon are New Leaf from PTI! 
, Scrap and Stamp, started by my friend Alex (along with her friend, Melissa). Here's the sketch, it's such a clean and simple one to work with. I did modify it a bit by leaving off the little accent top piece and by making it a pocket to hold the individual and team photos. My title was done with Basic Grey chipboard alpha and then inked up with some pumpkin craft ink. 
I rarely use staples in my paper crafting, never have been a fan of them, BUT I must say they actually look good and work well here. I used them to attach my tabs to the photos and to create my pocket for the folders. Not sure if you can see them in this picture, but they are there.
Guess, what? There is a prize up for grabs. Limelight Papercrafts is their first sponsor and Mandy is offering up a FAB prize. All you have to do is create a page with this sketch and link it up on the Scrap and Stamp blog. That's all for today! See you tomorrow with some MFT monster smiles! Hugs, Lisa
Great layout! I love all the extra pictures. I'll use staples now and then, too. I'm always nervous at first and then - snap - it's done!

ReplyDeleteLOVE your page! Could you have them put the name of their blog on the sketch? I often forget who it is from after I print it out. Anyway, this is the layout I've decided to use for my entrance back into scrapbooking. I have to actually print off the pictures yet but wish me luck!
