Wow! I Was Productive

I haven't been sleeping well, so I was afraid I would sleep the entire day away. I did sleep, but not as much as I really would've liked. Paul found out the other day that Team Impact was at a church here in Texarkana this weekend. We saw them on TV shortly after we were married (just over 7 years ago) and he's wanted to see them in person ever since. This is the first opportunity we've had to catch them in our area. Here's the page I did with the picture I took before everything got started.
For the background page, I used the "picker" option in the software to match it to the blue in the Team Impact jackets. The center part is a stucco texture that I downloaded, but I can't for the life of me figure out where I got it. When I figure it out, I'll edit. The brads are included in the software. At this point, I'm not sure exactly what album this will be going in. Since seeing Team Impact was on Paul's bucket list, I'm thinking of making him a bucket list album. The other option I'm considering is just making a Team Impact album. We definitely want to see them perform again.
Now to the other page I created tonight. I'm gonna make pages about the teams I like, my favorite things, my "addictions". It just occurred to me that I can put all these pages in a Favorite Things album. I had to get creative on this Longhorns page.
I know paper scrapbooking supplies exist for college and pro teams, but I can't find any digi scrapping supplies. This page is created entirely from images I downloaded from various sites on the internet. Mostly, I did a Yahoo! image search for Texas Longhorns and accessed these pictures. I didn't use a texture on the background this time. I just really lowered the opacity for the picture I used as the "paper". I think it's set at like 35.
Now that I'm thinking about a Favorite Things album, I keep thinking of things to include in it. I guess I should write it all down somewhere so I can make sure to get pics of the things I can.
