Neither of my children play a traditional sport, so this blog hop was a bit of a challenge for me.  However if you compare sports and theatre, you will find many common elements:
Tryouts and Auditions
Coach and Director
Practice and  well Practice :)
Games and Performance
Team and Cast
I think you get the idea!


I used Pattern 35 from CTMH Make It From Your Heart Vol 3 as the jumping off point for my Layout.



Here is a close up of the title created with a Cricut cut and stamps.





There is a Pocket Plus Memory Protecter placed in the middle of the Layout.  I LOVE these page protectors because they allow me to add MORE photos without sacrificing the design.



The first look has the Pocket Plus Memory Protector on the right side of the layout.



Below is the same layout with the Pocket Plus Memory Protector flipped so that it rests on the left page of the layout.



Supplies Used:

Make It From Your Heart Vol 3: Pattern 35
Retired CTMH paper Kit: Oh Deer! ( Current Selection Here)
Pocket Plus Memory Protector Design 2
Retired CTMH Ink: Sea Glass  ( Current Selection Here )

For today's hop I created this shaker card using CTMH ThinCut set called:  ShakerWindow & Confetti

Using the base circle, I cut the sentiment out of a I Heart Us Picture My Life card.  I used a Shaker Window Foam create the well.  Inside the well I added Silver sequins and heats that I  cut with the thin cut set.  I covered the well with the acetate.  The stitched circle cut with the thin cut set finished off the shaker.  The paper used on this card is called I Heart Us.



Here is a close up view of the confetti inside :)
