Baseball Fever

For the past few months in my household we have had baseball fever. My son started baseball practice, indoors of course. We cannot trust the weather in Colorado yet since it is technically still winter.

He is playing on two teams right now so there is a lot going on for him. Luckily, my daughter is between activities so it is a little bit easier, until her volleyball season begins!

He has made a "designated" area in the living room for all of his baseball equipment. I should be happy it is all in one place. In the next few weeks my car will also transform into baseball central. It will permanently be home to baseball bags, balls, bats, catching gear, gloves, sunflower seeds, water bottles, cleats etc and that is just for my son. Me, My Man, and my daughter also have our essentials as spectators. Blankets, extra coats, a cabana shelter and My Man even found us some fancy camping folding chairs that recline, have a headrest and footrest. When you are at a baseball field hours on end you want to be comfy! This is how we spend our summer and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Needless to say, my son was the inspiration for my sample this week. I do not make many masculine projects so I am excited to share this one!


 He loves this game!

December Challenge: Brr! It's Cold!

Let's start December with a new challenge over at the My Pumpkin Challenge ! The last Paper Pumpkin kit was so adorable. I can't wait to see what everyone is making with it. The Challenge this month is Brr! It's cold. I live in Colorado and it is usually really cold and snowy this time of year. Yesterday the temperature was 60 degrees. My son wore shorts to school. It does not feel like December yet! It is weird to see Christmas lights hanging with no snow. I don't think snow is even in the forecast in Denver. But, in the spirit of winter here is my sample this week! p.s. I am not complaining about the warmth, just noting that it is odd. ;) I used one of the cute snowflake cards to make this hot cocoa treat. I cut one flap off the card (the end with half a snowflake). Then I used sticky tape to tape the sides of the remaining snowflake piece, to make a pocket for the hot cocoa packet. I stamped some snowflakes along the bottom and embellished the centers with rhi

New! Wishes and Stars Challenge

Let's welcome August with a new challenge over at the My Pumpkin Challenge . The theme this month is " Wishes & Stars ." It totally fits the July Paper Pumpkin kit. I love the options they provided in this kit and all the products too. You still have time to sign up for your Paper Pumpkin kit and to take advantage of the great deal going on now. Here is my sample this week. I made a star border with the different size star shapes from the kit. I traced the star outlines first, cut around my pencil lines then adhered the stars. (I thought it would look cleaner that way instead of having to cut around the stars and get in the tight areas.) The front says Make a and the inside actually says WISH, but I left my camera at work so I will show you the inside tomorrow. Don't forget to stop by the My Pumpkin Challenge today to for more inspiration. We would love for you to share your creations too! Don't be shy, even if you do not have a blog you can participa

Quick Tip Tuesday

I just wanted to share a quick tip I came across while I was browsing through Pinterest. I am not sure who came up with this great idea but I wanted to share it. Using the new framelits  Stampin' Up! offers you can make cute tags in different sizes or add a fun border to your card stock. I am enjoying creating with the framelits dies. I hope you will try it! Come back tomorrow and I will show you what I made using this technique!  ~ Thanks for stopping by! ~
