Defense! Layout for Sketch N Scrap Birthday Celebration

Good Morning and welcome to the Third Exclusive birthday bash sketch over at Sketch N Scrap. I hope you all have joined the party over at the event page.
This is the wonderful sketch were using:

and for it to fit my photos I had to rotate it:

and this is my layout:

 Wow these action shots are so cool of Avery playing Defense. I've got a few more that I'm making this into a double page layout (later this week I'll be able to get ahead a bit and get the other side done). I have a few basketball themed embellishments that I pulled out for the layout and added some metallic sequin stars, he sure seemed the star that game

 I used paper from my current counterfeit kit: Nature's Party and this just maybe the LOAD517 layout for Day 15 (depending on if I can get another layout done :)

 I had fun creating the title with the designer sticker from an old pack of Making Memories embellishment package.

I used some of them foam basketball cuts and a fun border strip from recollections I got in a prize pack a few years ago.
Thanks for stopping by today and I look forward to seeing your creation to this fun sketch over at the event page.
