A BASEBALL SIGN...an altered frame

welcome 

i bet you have lots of things you can alter, lots of things you can make prettier. lots of things that deserve a facelift.

 (and, i am not talking about me here, ok?--lol)

i found this little frame made of super thick chipboard and i used it for the base of today's project.

Baseball Plaque

3.5 inches wide by 7 inches tall

i also found an 8 x 8 baseball kit that needed to be dusted off and given some use.

 i used a  clear stamp set to make my own background on the banner behind the jersey (baseball shirt) where i repeatedly stamped the sentiment "You're a Super Star".

it was just what i needed for this cute plaque.

the rest of the elements used are from the 8 x 8 kit i mentioned earlier. 

the name i cut using my cricut expression and the doodletype font cartridge.

this is so cute!

i am so happy i was able to make my own background for the banner.

and this is it for today me dear. i let you see a bit more of what the challenge is about and i really, really hope you join us every week. there is always a nice prize waiting for a lucky entry.

BOSTON RED SOX CARD

HELLO

this is my third project for the 

Bitten by the Bug 

Design Team

  this week we had to work with the

-Life is a Party-

cricut cartridge

and use the baseball from page #37. the baseball is image #17,

you will find this baseball using shift and the layer creative feature.

below is my take on this challenge.

Boston Red Sox Card

3.75"

my husband is a huge Red Sox fan. our family room is his domain and you will find all kind of Red Sox items and in the bathroom a Red Sox toilet seat--hehe-- yeah! you heard right. :)

anyway, i am giving him this card to honor his love for the team.

the letters are from Storybook cricut cartridge and they were cut at .75". the heart is from Beyond Birthdays. the socks are actually stockings from Christmas Cheer, that i manipulated by hand to make them look like socks. the white on them was done by hand too. 

the stitches on the ball are the negative because i want them on top of the red.

this is the inside.  

i used two of the My Pink Stamper stamps:

Sport-tastic for the "Home Run" and the new Font-abulous one for the dots around it....and..... it is not dirty by accident, i had to make it look as it had been played with, lol. imagine is dirt from Fenway--wink.

if you click on My Pink Stamper it will take you where the stamp sets are.... and if you click the BBTB2 logo, it will take you to the site where you can see where my teammates have made with this image and you can also play along with us and make one of your own and link it to the BBTB2 site.

 i am so happy you decided to stop by and i certainly hope you decide to

"have a ball".

;p

Love you

FATHER'S GIFT BAG

My husband

is a baseball fanatic and our family room is filled with baseball memorabilia and a few other sports. Our theme for the May Challenge is Father's day by our dear Emma and since you all know now my husband loves baseball my project for today is a Sports Gift Bag especially for him. The signed baseball he already has but I thought it was a cute accent :)
I used the Baseball solutions cartridge for everything except the DAD word which is from the All Mixed Up one. The images are cut at 5 inches, the All Star word and baseball are cut at 1.5 inches. The sentiment inside the baseball is one of My Pink Stamper clear stamps set called Simply Sweet Occasions and it reads: Celebrate Today...perfect for the occasion, lol.
