Happy Monday! The BBTB2 challenge for the next two weeks is a sports theme. My project for this challenge takes me back to what I'm calling the "before times" (meaning pre-covid). One of the last big gatherings I attended was a Super Bowl party, where the Kansas City Chiefs won the Super Bowl last February. Looking back at the pictures of all of my extended family watching the game together and celebrating really brought home how life has changed.
I had so much fun making this layout. The base was this football paper I had in the stash. I used the CTMH You Are Here image collection for the football helmets. Then came the fun part, using my cricut to print and cut svgs I found of each team's helmet logo and a football svgs that had the final score. I also discovered that there is a free NFL Chiefs font, which I was able to download and cut with my cricut. And when I googled to see if there was a font for the 49ers, I was able to find a font called Clarendon Bold that is close to what they use for their branded gear. I cut each of the team names with their respective fonts. Love being able to personalize the fonts like this for my project! You can see the rest of the design team's sports themed projects over at BBTB2 and link up your own project to share.

I remember when we all got together for things like this too and am so glad you could scrapbook it. All of the elements are great and obsessing over the details like the right font are what we scrapbookers do, lol.
ReplyDeleteYou can tell that you put alot of effort into making this layout perfect. I hope we can make some more of these memories again really soon. Awesome layout!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great layout. I wish the outcome of the game was different, but hey, it’s still a great layout! LOL
ReplyDeleteI love your layout, but of course, don’t like the outcome of the game. Cool job on the fonts and helmets, looks so authentic. That’s one game I won’t be scrapping.
ReplyDeletegreat layout! great use of your hoarded stash. that's awesome about the fonts! I discovered some team fonts back when I did some Red's stuff for my son. We appreciate all those good times that were so seemingly simple now.
