So what do you get a baseball fan boyfriend for Christmas...
while on a very strict budget???
A craft :D
One year I decoupaged one of those cardboardy boxes you get a craft store. It had all sorts of sports and entertainment clips. I called it his "ticket box" so he could store mementos from movies/games/events...
It's always been one of his favorite gifts. So this year he gets...
A scorecard book! Of his very own! He's been getting into scoring games lately and we go to like 10 games a season. I thought it'd be nice to make him one, so he didn't have to keep buying the ones at the game.
The cover
Back cover
Insides
Scorecard pages
I used a Japanese stab bind, since it was all single loose pages. Covers were made from cardboard sketchbook backings, and then decoupaged.
