It’s never too early to teach children to send greeting cards. This card kit makes it easy for them to create beautiful cards to send to family and friends. You’ll use the Wood Words Bundle and This Little Piggy Stamp Set to create an extended crate for the Very Vanilla Note Cards and Envelopes, as well as elements for children to adhere to their cards. They’ll enjoy painting the piggies with water and watching color magically appear, and then using their creativity to add the layers, sentiments, and embellishments. The crate holds materials for four cards; you’ll complete a fifth card to send with the kit as an example for putting the cards together. This kit could be two classes – one for parents to create the kit, and a second to help the children complete the cards.

 

Today's project was designed by Buffy Cooper. You can get her step-by-step tutorial and the other designers' tutorials, when you subscribe to the July edition of Craft Project Central for only $10! Some time during the month, I will be giving away a one-month subscription to Craft Project Central.

Special Reason Gift Packaging Trio!

Spring is in the air, and you need some little gift packaging ideas to go along with it! This tutorial will teach you how to make a little purse bag, gift card/nugget candy bar holder, and a little square window treat box. They all feature the beautiful Special Reason Bundle and Falling in Love Designer Series Paper. This would also make a wonderful product-based packaging class.

Nothing like waking up and find this surprise in my email! Happy shopping and remember to use the item description numbers in this flyer, not the ones in the catalog.

 

Last night, I had a belated birthday dinner with my friend, Shirley, who also has a February birthday. We rarely get together during our birthday month, but that's okay. We make the celebration last longer! Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you are having a tremendous Tuesday!

 

Celebrate Each Year Memory Book

 

As a Guest Designer at Craft Project Central this month, today is the day my project is featured. Yippee!

 

Many of you know that I'm been working on scrapbooking 40+ years of photographs and memorabilia. While working on that project, I realized that my hubby had a ton of photographs from when he was growing up. So I decided to make a simple scrapbook of his childhood using one photograph per page. This is how my project for Craft Project Central came about.

 

 

 

The Celebrate Each Year Memory Book contains 20 pages with photographs from birth to age 18. It is simple to create because it uses the Project Life by Stampin’ Up!® 6” x 8” photo pocket pages. Just slip your photographs into the pocket pages and add printed cards and accessories. The Celebrate Each Year Memory Book is a one-of-a-kind gift that will be treasured for years.

 

You can get my step-by-step tutorial and the other designers' tutorials, when you subscribe to the March edition of Craft Project Central for only $10!

 

I have a free Craft Project Central subscription that I'm giving away. Leave a comment on my project on the Craft Project Central website (not on my blog comments or in an email) between March 16-22, 2017. I will draw a winner and announce it on my blog on March 21.

 

Are you having a typical Thursday? We aren't at our house. All three grandgirls are here for our annual St. Paddy's Day celebration. One of our favorite days of the year! We wear green clothing. We eat green food and drink green beverages. Any food that isn't green is on green plates or in green bowls. We play games and have fun activities throughout the day. And, the funny thing is we aren't Irish. Though, I've been to Ireland, and my hubby's niece lives in Northern Ireland. Isn't everyone a wee bit of Irish on St. Paddy's Day?
