Hey, Batter Batter!

Best Creation seriously spoiles their design team. I feel so lucky to be apart of it. This month we are playing with 3 new releases. One of my favorites is this Baseball collection.


How cute is this? The colors are so vibrant and versital. You can make projects that aren't about baseball at all, luckily my oldest son is a baseball finatic. You've heard the phrase, "Baseball is life". So true for him.

Play Ball



Team Spirit


How about an idea for treats? Of course my son loves playing the game but there's nothing like getting a juice box and treat after the game. A few week's ago when we stopped at a fast food joint, I thought of making these. The confused lady behind the counter gave me an unused fry box for a template (yes, she also gave me a weird look when I told her I was going to use it for papercrafting) but whatever. I'm going to make a bunch of these for Parker's teammates and fill them with goodies. I think they're going to love 'em!


This week on the Best Creation BLOG, the design team is their projects using this fun collection. Be sure to check back all week for more ideas. I have a few more up my sleeve as well. ;)

Sketch 119

Hey all! Sorry this is coming late in the day. I had an extra long day at work...lots of cake orders to fill.
This week's sketch is pretty simple but you'll see from the amazing DT that it is very open to interpretation. I love that!
