Put Me in Coach layout (by my young'un)

We were fortunate to get tickets to a Texas Rangers game this week, and while it was hot, and I mean H-O-T kind of hot, we still had fun. We went into the Texas Rangers Hall of Fame (air-conditioned, ya know). I took this pic of the boys in front of a display of the Rangers farm team jerseys. We were sitting around bored today and my oldest (11) asked if he could scrap something, so the recent baseball pics came to mind. He chose the kit himself, and it is Scrappin Serenity's "Put Me in Coach". Here is his layout:


Here is the full kit, available in her store at STS (image is linked):


Good job, Cody! I need to send him to the STS forum to the junior scrapper thread, I think!

Sail into Sleepy Time with Scrappy Cocoa and a FREEBIE!

Hey everyone...Happy Friday! Scrappy Cocoa has a sweet new kit out today! "Sail into Sleepy Time" was originally a mini, part of Steph's participation in DigiScrap Connect's The Design Factor. It's now an awesome full-sized kit. The soft, calm colors are perfect for sleeping baby pictures, but the kit is versatile enough that you can use it for many other things. I LOVE the little "Zzzz" word art, and all of the little heart elements are adorable. Here is a preview:



Here is my layout:



I love how AJ sprawls out when he sleeps! So cute!!! Anyway, you can pick up this fabulous kit at Gingerscraps or DSS ...and for a limited time only, it's 25% off! So go grab it up!


And, as promised, here is your freebie. I made my LO above into a QP for you. Hope you like it! Thanks for stopping by...happy scrapping! Click on the preview to go to the download.
