2016 Baseball Season.....{MCT Scrapping the Little Things}

Good Morning
 and 
Welcome to another Scrapping the Little Things 

Before I share my PL cards I want to apologize for not being around the last 2 weeks. My kids were on break and then we had a death in the family that kept me away from FB and commenting here on blogger. Please know that I will catch up with everyone this week and can not wait to see everything that you all created that I missed.

Now for today's project. Baseball season is just around the corner for my son so I thought I would start his album for both his House League and Travel League.... here is what I made
I left the 2 large spaces open for Parker's team pictures. Both panels have the sentiments stamped onto the new Ribbon End Banner dies using the Alpha Pack. I also used the In Stitches die for some extra details. The 4 smaller panels were cut using the 4x4 Journal Die from designer paper from Doodlebug Designs~home run. The top panel was part of the paper that I used because...well in Parker's eyes it is all about baseball...LOL!!
The next panels I used the Pretty Bold Numbers to die cut the date. Finally the last panel was another part of the designer paper but I did add some die cut stars to show the positions Parker plays.

My Creative Time Products Used:


That is all I have for now.... I really hope you have enjoyed my  page!
Make sure you head on over to My Creative Time to see what the rest of the DT made!
I know the inspiration is AWESOME!!!!
Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT Monday!!!

America's Favorite Pastime! {Trendy Twine DT project}

Good Morning Everyone!
It is my day to post on the Trendy Twine blog and I am here to share another "Summer Night" project using the featured products of the month~
 Aqua Midnight along with the Clear Pillow Boxes
When I think of summer nights, I think of sitting outside watching America's Favorite Pastime~ Baseball!!! Since my son plays, we spend many of summer nights at the ball field and a wildly popular ball park snack are sunflower seeds. 
Using a Small Pillow Box, I filled it with a very generous serving of sunflower seeds. Next I wrapped the gorgeous Aqua Midnight Trendy Twine around the pillow box to keep it sealed extra good.
I added a cute heart tag, a matching mini clothes pin and held it all in place by tying the ends of my twine into a bow. I actually used 4 different My Creative Time stamps and dies for the tag. The Stitched Sweetheart & XOXO Dies was for the heart. Then for the sentiment and circle I used the Scallop & Stitched Circle die along with the Grand Slam stamp set. Finally for the baseball stamp and the circle die cut, I used again the Grand Slam stamp set and the smallest of the Bunch of Fun Circle Dies.

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:
Aqua Midnight Trendy Twine - Aqua, White, & Black Bakers Twine 
10 Clear Pillow Boxes, Medium

MCT What a Treat Wednesday.....{You're my superstar}

Good Morning everyone!!!
It is time for another one of my FAVORITE days over at My Creative Time~
What a Treat Wednesday!
I am sure you are all familiar with this day but if you are not it is where the MCT DT makes a treat using of course the awesome MCT stamps and dies!!!
While at the grocery store, I found these adorable baseball gumballs. Since it was opening day for my son's travel baseball team I thought they would be fun to give to the boys. So I grabbed a few and of course forgot to bring them to the game. BUT I did know that there was an upcoming What a Treat Wednesday post that these would be perfect for.
So I took that adorable Short Candy Chute from Trendy Twine and was able to place 3 gumballs in it. I wrapped some designer paper around the center and then pulled out the newly released You're My Hero and Bunch of Stitched Stars from MCT (dont forget that there is an awesome sale still going on until this Friday..all the details can be found HERE)
I stamped the sentiment onto matching designer paper and placed it aside while I die cut my stars. Now it was time to put this all together. I wrapped some of my favorite Trendy Twine~Stars and Stripes around the box and then tied it in a knot. Next I layered the sentiment onto the top of the larger star and placed the smaller star onto the top. I added a small hole where I then threaded the knotted TT through to tie it into a bow.

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a GREAT hump day!!!!!!

Before you head out I have a little bragging to do:)
Here is my superstar~ my youngest Parker
He is so proud of his new big barrel bat he got for Christmas and didn't want to use it until his fist game of the season!

He just LOVES to catch and is very good at it as well. He sure took a beating at this game but there is no place he rather be!

Parker was our opening pitcher on Sunday. Love seeing him up on the mound but OMG the anxiety gets to be too much sometimes :)

 And here is Parker's team. They are 11U and a very young team, but with lots of hard work they should have a good season! Oh by the way...what do you think of their jerseys??? I am proud to say that they were all done ME :) Looking good boys!
