Bash Bowl 2023: Our Christmas Card

Bash Bowl is back! You may remember the Super Bowl themed scrapbook competition I did last February. We competed in two teams and received weekly playbooks worth up to 7 points each. My team, Twisted Scissors, won a hard-fought battle. I'm doing my part to help the Scissors to another victory!

This is the first layout I made:

This is the Round 1 Playbook: 


Looking at the list, I thought there'd be no way I could include all the elements and still make a layout I like. But I did! I'm very happy with my finished page. It was a challenge, but that's the whole point!

The hardest item for me was wood. We had to use actual wood, not woodgrain paper or washi, pictures of the woods, or anything else like that. I found the thinnest wood veneer I could (since I hate bulky items on layouts) and combined it with stickers and rhinestones (bling) to make an embellishment cluster in the lower right. I don't normally use twine on layouts, but the white/green bakers twine was easy to add. The stars are on the red patterned paper matting the photo. Did you spot the stencil? I used it to add a harlequin pattern to the solid red paper. 

Go Scissors! Beat those Banshees!
