BBTB2 - Football Challenge - At the Superbowl

CLICK ON IMAGE TO SEE ENTIRE 2 PAGE LAYOUT

Today's challenge over at BBTB2 is "One for the Boys - Football Challenge".  I couldn't pass up the opportunity to post two of the pages that I just completed of my husband and his best friends at the Superbowl this year.  This was a major item checked off the bucket list for these guys.  I used the All Sports cuts free on the Cricut Craft Room (CCR) last week to make the embellishments.  The title and 2013 was made from Plantin Schoolbook.  I was lucky to find a 49er paper kit at JoAnns.  I'll post some of the other great layouts from this monumentous event soon.

Fall Layout - First Thanksgiving

This is a one page layout I made for my granddaughter's first Thanksgiving.   I used the Celebrate with Flourish cartridge and the Plantin Schoolbook in different fonts to make the words.  Can't recall where the hat is from, I may have gotten it in a swap on the Cricut Message Board.  It will definitely hold a few cute pictures of her all dressed up in her finest for the occasion.

Linked to the BBTB for their Fall Challenge this week.   http://heather-bittenbythebug2.blogspot.com/2013/09/anything-fall-goes-use-fall-theme-on.html   There are some great projects designed by these ladies that provide lots of inspiration.

Veterans Day in Palm Springs

We had never been to a Veterans Day parade, and this was a good one. Went on for over an hour. Two different layouts using lots of carts.

We'll Have Fun Fun Fun

I got this idea in my head for a row of old cars from the Heritage cartridge. It came out pretty good.. I changed the lyrics of course to match our purchase of our Tbird from Andre's cousin. She won it on The Price is Right in 2003. It only had 2000 miles on it when we brought it. Smells new still.... we already have 5000 miles on it in a little less than a year.

Father's Day at the Ballpark

Finally scrapping this layout of the guys on Father's Day last year. Cricut Plantin Schoolbook used for the lettering. Got the mitt and "play ball" in a swap and knew it was for this layout. Isn't that background paper cool. "Take me out to the ballgame"

Catch of the Day - Andre and Kenneth catch the big ones

I used the Pagoda, Plantin Schoolbook, and Campout Cricut Cartridges to make this page. I really like the colors. I was tired of the same old campout style layouts and got this idea in my head to make it fancy. Turned out well. Stickles on the fish and pole. One of my favorites.

St. Joseph's Day 2008

I know, I am really behind in my scrapping. This is a two page layout of our cousin's St. Joseph's Day feast. It is full of food and giving thanks to the simple working man/woman.

Nashville Layouts

When on a business trip last year, I went a few days early and spent time with my friends. We went to Nashville to see her son's band. We stopped at the Opryland Hotel and walked through the lush greenery and atrium. Just awesome.

49ers layout and DS emblem

I created a layout from a group pic taken at the 49ers game a few weeks ago. I had designed a 49er emblem in Design Studio and wanted to work it into the layout. I love the emblem and have made a few cards with it as well. Coach Singletary coined the phrase "I Want Winners" so I lightly printed a pic of him onto velumn in black and white as an embellishment. Note the cute football helmet brads holding down the velumn. The cut file is on the Cricut message board under "design studio cut files".

Like Mother, Like Daughter Layout

This is my favorite layout by far. It took me several hours to create. The colors are much brighter in real life. I took this picture of my daughter and me by holding out the camera and shooting back at us. It turned out great for a "quick shot". Used Cricut Plantin Schoolbook for the lettering, can't remember where the swirls came from. Rose from Indie Art.
