Play Ball!

This was a super fun, super fast layout! And I used some of my favorite embellishments, cardstock stickers!!!

About my son Brayden playing baseball this past summer. He's such an active little guy it's fun to watch him jump around all excited. When he runs in to home plate, if he's not sliding unnecessarily, he's doing a little jump twist off of it. So fun!

They're having a little crop at Scrapdango and I decided to get in on the fun. So this challenge was for their PE class. The requirements were to use an action photo, circle and something to convey motion, with extra credit for getting the word team in there somewhere.
I used photos of Brayden playing ball, plenty of circles, "action" lines behind the ball up top and an arrow to move you across the page. Plus I got the extra credit "team" in there. Then I just had a blast with my white pen, adding lines here and there to highlight things and move the eye around the lo, and my latest favorite of ball stitches around the edge of the layout.
