Gus Baseball

Happy Summer!  I have finally finished with work for the summer, and like every eager child I broke myself on the first day of vacation!  Yup, tore a muscle in my calf.  Luckily I can still drive, but I am totally not digging the crutches!  GRRRR

Oh well, at least I am home right?  At Dream Valley we are having another challenge: Inspired by a Song/Movie/Book.  I have chosen a great summer movie, A League of Their Own.  For the stamp I have used Bugaboo stamp - Gus Baseball.  A clean and simple card on kraft cardstock.  Gus was stamped and colored on white with copics, then cut out.  

Hey, did I mention that our sponsor is Crafty Sentiments Designs?  They are giving one random winner 3 images!  Sweet!

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:

Pile it On - outdoor fun

Chocolate, Coffee, and Cards - summer fun

Crazy 4 Challenges - summer/winter

Have a great week, and don't hurt yourself!

Baseball....

I have to say that this is the perfect timing for this challenge and the card I made for it!  The challenge at Dream Valley Challenges is to create something having to do with your "Summer Days."  My card is about baseball....

You probably haven't seen me blogging much recently because it's been a little crazy around here!  At one point we were going in all directions because between my two kids there was 4 different teams that they were on!  Eeek!  My daughter made the U8 All-Star Softball team which ended up getting second place in the state tournament!  My son made the U10 All-Star Baseball team and are still playing with a current record of 9 wins and 5 losses.  They have one more tournament to go.....and then swim lessons and fall baseball and soccer starts! Oh boy.

So anyway, my card is about baseball, which is how my summer days have been!  It works out wonderfully because our sponsor for this challenge is Bugaboo Stamps!

One random winner will get to choose their own digis with $21 to work with!  Awesome!

My card uses Gus Baseball from Bugaboo Stamps.  You can find it HERE.  

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:

Delicious Doodles - Summer Time

Kitty Bee Designs - Summer

Dream it up - Summertime, Sparklers, and S'mores

Happy Campers - Summer

HAVE A GREAT WEEK, AND KEEP ON SWINGING, OH, I MEAN STAMPING!!!
