My Most Pinned Pin

Every once in a great while I look to see what my most pinned pin is and when it hit 200 remind I was so excited.

Honestly I haven't looked in ages but noticed that it was just pinned again so I went to see what it was up to. I was half expecting it to maybe like 500 but it was over 2000 times.

2000 times this pin here.

has been re pinned and saved to others boards.

It was one of the simplest and easy crafts to do. It was a test run for my Pinterest parties that we have a few times a year!

So take a look at my super simple craft pin and if you are interested in the actual post, you can view it here.

The post alone also has over 2500 views now I need to get all my posts that many!

This amazes me so much and thanks for stopping by!

One of my favorite things is Bitmoji, which is creating your own personal emoji. I just love how custom you can make it. I love sending people texts with my own look and I think my Bitmoji looks a lot like me.

My Bitmoji has been everything I can make it in the app on my iPhone. I sent one to my Aunt once and she loved it so much, that she had to create her own. It looks just like her to and she will send them to me randomly as a pick me up.

I used the app recently to make Bitmojis for the kids and myself. I figure I could use them for fun stickers for my planners. I used a scrapbook program and just downloaded the pictures I saved off the iCloud to my laptop. It was super simple but a tad time consuming to add and size them all.

The sheets look like this:

I can print them and hand cut them out on sticker paper or load them into my Cricut to cut (I already loaded to see how it would look).

I figure this will be a fun way to add a little something extra to my planner and all sorts of things like in the kids lunches. I figure I can print a sheet up for the girl for her school planner to keep track of all her stuff.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pinterest LOVE

Becky 12:00 AM 0 Comments

Pinterest has my heart still. I love it for all the different ideas it gives me every day though what I don't like is all the different ideas it gives me every day because I feel like it is never in an orderly way. Yes I know we have boards, but sometimes I go pin crazy and than I feel everything is crazy disorganized.

So I saw that others were putting on cover pictures for their boards and I loved that idea. I used a scrapbook program (My Memories) to create simple picture board headers for each of the different boards.

Now my personal page looks like this and for me it is finally looking clean and orderly. I like clean and orderly.

I love the cute little headers and they were simple. Any editing software and a general picture would work for this.

You can always go to my Pinterest page and follow me. I pin all the time and love sharing ideas!

I mean I love Pinterest so much that when my Father in law was in San Francisco last year, he stopped into their headquarters and got me the cute little pin (yep it is a Pinterest pin).

Thanks for stopping by!

Baseball Season is Starting

Becky 11:04 AM 0 Comments

Yes the first thing out of my mouth was "are you getting softball ones to?"

I wasn't the only one asking and they are checking.

So of course I saw these adorable raglans with baseballs on them and knew I needed to make a shirt with it but what. I have so many softball centric and many baseball are similar but I found this idea and was like YESSSSSS!

So of course once it is in my head and I need to create and do it so after some time cutting on my Cricut, and pressing, here is the finished project.

I will be making a similar one if they get softball shirts in to the vinyl shop (I got mine here).

I figure if I am living at the sportsplex for the next 4 months, I should look cute- right?

Thanks for stopping by!

Wall Update

Spring is in full bloom here in Texas and summer is creeping at its heels with the warm temps. We had enough rain for a month over the last two days and it is raining on and off today. I love spring and I am totally in love with some of my new decor things.

I am all about aqua/teal and accenting it all. I am also in love with American decor but with a twist.

I love my new Heidi Swapp Marquee sign. I was stalking it on Amazon which it was sold out and than it appeared at Hobby Lobby. Joann's had more stuff for it and I love that I can change out sayings. I also love my marquee letter and star.

My wreath got a new banner which was the cutout from my cute shadow box project below from adorable States paper. I am a sucker for anything state and travel related.

Finally my awesome decorated globe. My hubby laughed at me when I bought it at a garage sale and it did not look like this. After some coats of spray paint and the flowers, I love how it turned out.
