This is the card I made for this week's Teapot Tuesday challenge! Thank you Fran for hosting this week.
This is my story!
1. I autographed these baseballs with messages to Troy, the recipient of this week's Teapot Tuesday cards. Troy is a Police Officer that was very seriously injured while on the job, chasing a bad guy.
2. The messages are thank you, grateful, and best wishes. I am thankful that there are those who commit to law enforcement! And I wish him the very best going forward...his life is forever changed as a result as he may not be able to return to law enforcement.
3. This is a bunch of baseballs coming Troy's way. If he is a basebal fan, I am sure he'll be able to *catch* the message I am sending!
4. Thanks everyone for always making the recipient's day a bright one by sending your cards! If you would like to join our teaparty and make a card for Troy, here is a link to the challenge.

What a clever idea, Cindy!! I love what you have autographed the balls with, sending your best wishes to Officer Troy!! Now why didn't I think of that, I thought of the autograph part, but then I'm just a Teapotter, not a famous ball player! I sure like your idea!!

You'd think by now I'd have got a baseball-themed stamp to replace the one I finally RAKed on after I'd worn it to death, but no! Just as well everybody else seems to have plenty.
