Got Sports?
Christa Parker
|
 |
Soccer… I didn’t know much about this fall sport until I had to write about it. My boys do track, play baseball and football, but never tried soccer. So here is what I have learned about this sport. No one is sure where soccer first came from. One of the earliest forms of soccer was played as far back as 1004 B.C. in Japan, and then again in 50 B.C. between China and Japan. Soccer is also called football in other countries. Back in the 1300s soccer was banned and by law, anyone who was caught playing was put in prison. The name soccer came about when a player was asked if he was a “Rugger”, which is a Rugby player. The -er signified that the person participated in a particular sport. The player replied with soccer and the term stuck.
Whatever sport your child plays, don’t forget to get those great action shots. Those pictures make great layouts.

You were brilliant! You gave everything

Design
notes:
I did this for an online challenge that required the following: - 5 words in
the title - 4 circles - 3 pictures - 2
fonts- 1 subject in the pictures. Since a
lot of elements were required, I decided to
do the circles in several ways-- via the
photo and title matting and the eyelet
circles. I used paint to distress it a
little and to add a fun vibe. I love
journaling stamps because they make my
hand-writing look half-way decent in my
layouts. |

Journaling:
Jackson you really loved soccer this year! And you really came to life out
on the field. You scored lots of goals (on
average 2 a game) and you were really proud
of yourself. It is fun watching you play
soccer.

notes:
Those sports “posed” photos are sometimes hard to scrap. My solution is to
keep the layout simple and overlap the large
photos.
