Same Paper, Different Use!



Along with my Scrappin' mission, I'm trying hard to use up some stuff I have that I have not been using. Designer paper is the big one. I just forget what I have, and tend to use what is out on my desk at the time. I went digging through my stash and found some more My Minds Eye paper and put it to good use. Look, I actually scrapped one of the other boys! Since t-ball is almost over for this season, I was feeling the pressure to complete Joshua's page from last year's team. I made my own baseballs and stamped two bats and a mitt from a retired SU set, Sporting Goods (I think). The title is cut from my Fruit Smoothie alphabet sizzix set and my cuttlebug. Nice, quick, and easy!

After completing this page, I had scraps of this paper sitting on my desk so I decided to make a card with it too. The stamped images are from the Verve Visual set, Anniversary Birds. I did some fancy cutting around some swirls in the paper and nestled my birds behind it. I love the sentiment- Together, The Perfect way to Spend Forever." I think this will be Tim's anniversary card. We are coming up on 8 yrs on the 1st of July. Thanks for stopping by.
