 prize #1

Prize #2
Custom name crayons, pick up to 7 letters if you're the winner. 

Winners will be announced on next month's blog hop. So stay tuned!

Giveaway is International!

We  started off by using Lawn Fawn's road boarder die and cutting a bunch of roads using Micheals Recollections Black card stock.

As you can see Riley helped me run the die through the machine. He loves using the big shot and turning the handle. He kept saying lets make some roads. 

Then we took some yellow scrap paper and glued it on the back of the road to create the yellow lines and then I trimmed it down.

I cut down some blue card stock to create the card base and then adhered the roads to the cardstock for Riley to do the next step. 

Then I gave Riley some foam stickers that were buses, cars, trucks, tractors, tow trucks and airplanes. These are some of his favorite things so this was a big hit! So he added them to the roads. 


Then I created a super cute sentiment on word on the computer.  "Have a wheel great Valentine's Day!" And used some scrap paper to create a heart/banner for the different sentiment looks and adhered them to the card.  

Finally here is the finished product.  Hope you feel inspired by our project. Also hop on over to all the other blogs for more great projects.



Here are the links to the other projects in the blog hop

How absolutely perfect that he was so excited about making these! My nephew was vehicle obsessed also. He would jump up and down excited at the window, “gahbij twuck” “ice keama twuck”. The vehicle more exciting than what it carried. Love your son’s sweet cards. Brilliant idea!

Get Kids Crafty May Blog Hop Gardening theme

It's that time of month again where I share a fun crafty project that I made with my kiddo Riley for Get Kids Crafty. Hello and thank you for joining us for the May Get Kids Crafty! blog hop! We are thrilled to have you! Our theme this month is gardening and our kids have created some AMAZING projects to share with you! We had a lot of fun creating our project this month. We made a bumble bee mobile.  Both my kids love the song bringing home my baby bumble bee. Especially my youngest Liam, it seems to usually calm him down when he's upset.  So we created this fun project to the theme of the song.      First we had to die cut our bees, Here is Riley playing with an already cut bee in the Big Shot machine.      Here is Riley turning the handle on the Big Shot machine to cut out all our bees. We had to do 16 in total one for the front and back as you will see in a little bit. Here is what the finished bee looks like and the die cut that we used from
