It’s A Guy Thing: Ball Game

This month, I’m going to feature some layouts and cards using the It’s A Guy Thing paper packet and accessories.  So much of scrapbooking and cardmaking focuses on the pink and the frilly, but there are some materials out there that will help you make more male-centric creations.

“Ball Game”

Recently, a friend of ours gave us tickets to see the Washington Nationals play the Florida Marlins.  I’m not a baseball fan by any means, but I’d only seen the Nats play at RFK Stadium and I hadn’t yet been to the new ballpark.  I wanted to see what all the fuss was about.  It’s a beautiful ballpark and easily accessible by the Metro.  Unfortunately, the team is still crappy.  No matter, although it was a bit chilly that evening, we still had fun eating peanuts, popcorn and pretzels.

Materials:

• It’s A Guy Thing paper packet and My Stickease
• Cocoa Exclusive Inks stamp pad
• Designer Ribbon Rounds – Cocoa
• Copper brad
• Baseball clip art
• Brown Pigma Micron 05 pen (journaling)
• EK Success ZigWriter (white swirl by baseball)
• Layout pattern: PageMaps (8.5 x 11)

Yes, that’s Teddy Roosevelt.  The Milwaukee Brewers may have the Sausages, but D.C. has the Presidents.
