Because the tickets are so precious, I'd never had a chance to go to a game until last fall. One of my patients and her husband were U of M fans too and we had some lively conversations about football while she was being induced. Much to my surprise, her husband returned a couple of weeks later and gave me 2 tickets to a game!!! Awww...and they thought of me. I was floored! After I picked myself up and hugged the heck out of him, I ran to make sure that I wasn't scheduled to work! Lol!
My son was rather disgusted by my enthusiasm, in his terrific teenage way, and rolled his eyes a lot (as you can see in the photos) but he had a great time too ;)
This is one of those loaded with photos layouts. I just couldn't choose! Thank goodness for Sketch Support, Allison Davis has the greatest multi photo sketches.
Traditional themed paper was just too predictable, so I spritzed spray ink onto the background cardstock and then stamped the letter "M" randomly, to create my own patterned paper.
A good rummage through my stash turned up some appropriate goodies. Like the tickets from Little Yellow Bicycle and diecuts from SEI.
Basic Grey chipboard covered in paint and then stamped for texture.
The American flag looked so beautiful against the sea of people :)
Who'd of thought that Basic Grey "PB&J" would look good with Authentique "Genuine"?! Love those chevrons!
Off to dinner. My husband the chef made T- bone steaks with sauteed mushrooms and onions, oven roasted garlic butter and chive potatoes and...Oops, he forgot the vegetables. Guess I'll have to whip up a tossed salad. A woman can't have everything :)

I love everything about your layout! I truly love multi photo layouts, sports in particular, and this one is awesome! I like that you included the ticket...great job with the sketch!
Don't know where to start! The thing that really stands out though is how you added the pop of red to the page! I love it. It's completely perfect - another fantastic page by you (wait, do I see misting? ;) ).
That is a heartwarming story on how you got those tickets!!! And what a terrific two-pager! You always knock those out of the ball park!! better sports analogy: TOUCHDOWN!!!
Love love love this!! :)
