BASEBALL SCRAPBOOK LAYOUT PAGES
Baseball scrapbook layout pages might not be a UK scrapper's first thought, but if you've relatives 'stateside', then you just gotta scrap those 'Lil Leaguers!' I have not yet met my lil' relatives but hopefully they'll look at this site and demand to know who's responsible!

FIRST BASE - PHOTOS
My aunt kindly sent me these photos of two very cute fellas. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a photo of cheerleaders included in the collection! I was going to build the layout round them but thought better of it.
SECOND BASE - SCRAPBOOK PAPERS
I was pleased to find two papers from Cherry Arte which were ideal for this layout: The 'stars and stripes' design for the central journaling feature, and the spotted paper - which I chose to symbolise crowds of sports fans at a game.
THIRD BASE - STICK-ON EMBELLISHMENTS
Baseball layouts are much the poorer for no hats, bats and balls. I got these stick-ons from Stickpotamus, and I found that a bat and ball also works great as an exclamation mark. I then used Gold Letraset for my rather obvious baseball 'soundbite' journaling!
HOME RUN!
The baseball field was a good starting off point for this layout, reminding me of that Abbot and Costello scene ('Who's on first? No Watt's on first, Hoo's on second etc etc) I finished it off with a 'catcher's mitt' from Papermania cardstock (see I do know a LITTLE about baseball having been to the Houston Astrodome in '84) and a black journaling pen for the stitching.
