On the Sidelines

Hello! So if you haven't already noticed, my layouts are very soccer-heavy! I had at one time considered setting aside an album devoted strictly to all the soccer layouts (as I do for my xmas and Halloween albums), but then I thought it would just be a bit too much soccer!! Between my 2 kiddos who have been playing since they were 3 (and are now 12 and 13), and my husband who is always coaching at least one of their teams, we seem to eat sleep and breathe soccer! Me? I'm the "family historian"...I gladly watch every game with a travel mug of caffeine and my camera in hand ready to capture the next amazing moment on the field! This layout shows one of those moments OFF the field, just a simple pic of father and son watching my daughter's game- I just love this photo!


As always, I had the help of some great challenge blogs to get me scrapping! First I started with this fabulous sketch from Sketch N Scrap:

You can see I had to tweak the sketch a little to make it work for my 1-photo layout, I added 2 pieces of the rust dot paper in place of the pics. i also played with the fun color combo from Perfectly Rustics, the orange and greens worked well with the grassy green photo. 
 

And for one final challenge, I did the "D is for Dazzle" challenge over at The ABC Challenge. Not sure if you can tell from this photo, but see the red spots here and there on the layout? Those are dots Stickles I added along with the splats of green glimmer mist! They are much more sparkly up close and personal!  Thanks for stopping by! =) T

  6. Hi Tiffany! I love how you 'tweaked' the sketch to accommodate your photo, that's what's so great about sketches - you never know how they are going to end up being interpreted! Your page is awesome and the title looks cool! Thanks for sharing your layout with us at Sketch N Scrap. xx

  7. Wonderful job adapting the layout to the one photo! I understand - have TONS of sport pictures with my two boys too and nice to see a different take on it. Gives me a different perspective for mine which I rarely scrap since they all seem the same! Thanks for playing along with us at Sketch N Scrap! :)
