Crafting with Kids

Happy Monday morning!  Beth from Beth's Beauties here today with these crafts my boys recently created.  They are busy with fun summer projects and sometimes that includes spending time in the craft room with mom :)

First up, a monogrammed treat holder.  The file is from JGW Star Tent Place Cards.  It was very easy to assemble!  The papers used are from The Paper Studio's Vintage Nation paper pad and Stars and Stripes Trendy Twine was used to embellish.

Second, my 8 year old wanted to create a 3D item, and after browsing the SVG Attic website, he decided on this cake slice box from SVGA Make A Wish.  The papers used are from The Paper Studio's Birthday Extravaganza paper pad.

Here is a view with it open.

The final project is this slice form rocket place card from SVG Outta This World.

I hope this post inspires you to get out those papers and cutting machines to create with your kids or grandkids!  It is a great time for bonding with them and passing on your love of paper crafting.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Who is Who

Hello and Happy Sunday :-)

 

Today I want to share with you some nametags/ place cards I made for my youngest son's school.

 

I'm known for not keeping my mouth shut and one day I couldn't help myself commenting on how boring the nametags were. The Teachers reaction: Well....you're creative....why don't you make some for us? :-D Challenge accepted.

 

 

 

I found the cute Pencil Card in the JGW Back 2 School Kit and simply downsized it a bit (75%) and cut to slits in the backside for a small piece of cardstock to fit for the name. I did this so the tag/card can be used for more than one student. 

 

I used AC Cardstock in Melon, Vanilla, Charcoal, Grapefruit, Ash and White and let my Silhouette do all the work for me. All I had to do was assemble the card/tag.

 

Happily it was a succes and they loved it. No more boring white nametags in an otherwise colorful school.

 

Thanks for stopping by and remember to write me a little something - you know I love it <3
