Throwback Thursday

Hello! Sorry this is getting posted late, blogger was being a meanie to me. Anyhoo, welcome to the first Throwback Thursday of 2012! For my first card here I used the basketball from the Slam Dunk set to create my patterned paper. I also cut one out for the little boy to hold. I used distress inks in ripe persimmon and a little bit of rusty hinge. The little boy is from Everyday Paper Dolls. 
The # 1 on his jersey is from the Sports Sentiments set. His face is from the Wide Eyed Kids asst from PeachyKeenStamps. And just for fun I gave him "real" shoelaces. ;)
For this card I used the Black Belt set to stamp the yin yang background paper.  Super easy!

The big yin yang is from the Pagoda cartridge. I put it on a wobble so it wiggles. :) Scoot on over to Emma's blog to see her and the rest of the dt's awesome creations...AND to play along! 

EEK! I guess I should tell ya what the theme is! LOL....it's sports themed
