Step-by-Step: Soccer Star

I have a confession to make. This is the first sports layout I have ever created. I am not a sports person and to be honest, I have never even had a yearning to do a sports page. I have a pile of photos of Charlotte playing soccer and I didn't know where to even start. The new Bo Bunny Press -Go Team Bleached Bare Naked Chipboard changed that for me. I knew I finally had a jumping off point to create my first sport-oriented layout! Here is how I made "Soccer Star" step-by-step.

Supplies:

• Bo Bunny Press - Go Team Bleached Bare Naked Chipboard
• Bo Bunny Press Which Way Bleached Naked Chipboard
• Bo Bunny Press Xtreme Black Grunge Paper (2 pieces)
• Bo Bunny Orange Citrus Double Dot Paper
• Typhoon Blue Bazzill Cardstock
• Sunset Orange Ranger Ink Paint Dauber
• Bo Bunny Press Doodle Dude Rub-Ons
• Heidi Swapp Small Calypso Circles
• Black StazOn Ink
• Crop-A-Dile
• Glue Dots
• ATG Tape Gun
• Dymo Label Maker
• Bazzill Blue Brads
• BasicGrey File Kit

Instructions:

1. Sand the Bo Bunny Chipboard pieces. Using the Sunset Orange dauber, paint two coats onto the chipboard pieces. Make sure that the paint is dry before painting the second coat.
2. Cut out the word "star" from the Doodle Dude Rub-Ons and adhere to the chipboard star.
3. Cut out and adhere random scrolls and star rub-ons from the Doodle Dude Rub-On Set to the Soccer title and the five points of the star. Set aside.
4. Cut a 1" by 12" strip of the Orange Citrus paper. Ink edges with black ink. Adhere 2 ¼" from the top of the page.
5. Cut a ¼" strip from the Black Grunge paper. Punch holes randomly and adhere on top of the orange paper. About 1/8" of orange should be peeking out from the top of the black paper.
6. Mat two of the photos with the blue cardstock. Ink the edge of the mat with black ink. Adhere all four photos to the page, as shown.
7. Ink the edges of "Soccer" title. Adhere the chipboard so that it slightly overlaps the left side of the top left photo.
8. Adhere the Calypso circle so that it overlaps the bottom left photo and ½" of the Black Grunge background.
9. Adhere the star so that it slightly overlaps the circle.
10. Adhere Dymo journaling.
11. Ink around the edges of the arrows with black ink. Place blue brads in the holes. Adhere the arrows to the layout using Glue Dots.

I hope this layout using the new Bo Bunny Bleach Naked Chipboard inspires you to make some fabulous sports pages of your own!!!
