I know I promised you a Baby Crafty Tuesday today…but we aren’t quite ready for the big reveal yet. I’ll tease you with a crib skirt and a little belly shot of Aunt JB – she is coming along nicely (the nursery and the baby!).
We were all a little crafty while Daddy was away this past week. Em and her GATE class did a little gallery of the artwork and photography they created in class.
Addie got her clay on in art class. Why yes, it IS a bowl with a cat head on it.
Addie needed some EIGHT tees for two girls in her class who have birthdays this week. And she wanted to help make them, so I taught her to “weed” the vinyl out.
She was bound and determined to use the number 8 that she had weeded out for something. She started putting tape on the back of it to make a card, which led to the idea that maybe we could heat press the vinyl onto cardstock? And the answer to that is…YES! So we made some birthday cards, too. About eight seconds in the heat press and the vinyl sticks nicely to cardstock. Who knew?
And finally, Birdie 2′s sweet MC had a birthday last week. She is all soccer – all the time. So I made her some new stationery…
…and a sign that she can take for her room when she leaves for college next year. Gah…we are gonna miss her so very much!
The stationery and sign I made in Illustrator and just printed them out on cardstock from the inkjet printer.
So that is what we have around here this week. I guess it is back to the baby goodies. Next week…for sure!
Great fun on Crafty Tuesday. I love the Peace Love Soccer print!! You are so lucky to have girls who want to get in on the crafty thing. My BA is totally disinterested and I long for a young person to share crafting with (if I ever have time to DO any!!). Those cards are awesome! there will be many happy 8 year olds in your neck of the woods!
(Oh and how grown up Addie looks all of a sudden with her cat bowl!)
