Dragon's Baseball Game

Yes, I know, this Layout says Ohio 2010!

I am a bit behind in some of my scrapbooking!

But it is okay, because I am catching up and have lots of supplies to do so!

I have family that lives in Ohio that we go to visit every summer.

The pictures were taken at a Dragon's baseball game that our cousins took my brother and I to.

This is a fun and simple layout.

I started with a striped scrapbook paper and then matted my pictures on an orange-yellow cardstock.

I then added three rhinestones on each.

I added a cardstock flower in the middle of the page.

One side is accented with patterned orange and green buttons,

the other with a tag.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blue Felt Tree

Robert's Mom's birthday was last month and I wanted to make her something unique.

I have had these styrofoam cones that I had been wanting to try crafting with.

 Browsing through Pinterest, I saw quite a few different ideas for trees made from them.

Using those for inspiration, I came up with my own tree idea.

I took the base of a ribbon container and traced circles onto two different shades of blue felt.

I cut the circles out and then attached them to the styrofoam cone,

using sequins pins.

I alternated between putting a seed bead a sequins on the sequins pin and putting a seed bead and a button on the pin.

I found those cute, sparkly blue birds in the dollar bins at Michael's.

I thought they would be a great touch to this project!

I adhered them with glue dots!
