P.K.'s birthday card

I grabbed this image as a freebie at Bugaboo a few weeks ago and knew right away that I would use it for P.K.'s birthday card. You may think it is because she likes cats, but that is NOT it. Actually hardly any of my kid's like animals, which is ok with me! P.K. is short for Pretty Kitty and that is a nickname I have for her just cause she is such a sweet little kitty.  When I make a card....which is not very often.....I love to use a sketch so I was pretty happy to find an awesome sketch at Catch the Bug Challenge and so that is the challenge that I am entering. Anyhow she loved the card and we had a very happy birthday!!!

Boys valentine cards

Of course because the girls are busy making Valentine's cards for their classmates, the boys wanted to join in the fun. We practiced our cutting skills (to cut out the hearts), our ABC sounds to figure out the first letter of our friends' names and our fine motor skills to print the letters. They will definitely be ready for Kindergarten in the fall!

Challenges we are entering:  Crafting with Kids Valentine Craft or Gift, Craft Your Passion Kids ~ I HEART YOU! and Jellypark Juniors ~ Anything Goes

Prairie Fairy has Valentine's Candy! You can check it out and enter the draw here. You could win this awesome CTMH stamp set.

So not only do we have to post the candy & link in the side bar but you have to write about post about what you LOVE.  Cliche or not but I love my family - my husband and my kids......they are everything to me.  I also love to organize. You may not know it by my house cause I have had to let a few things slide cause I just cannot keep up with 4 kids and all their stuff, but I am currently organizing our dance school's year end concert and I am really loving it!!!

Wishing You Joy this Christmas!

Here is P.K.'s card for inspiration at The Crafter's Cafe Kid's Challenge. The theme is Christmas. The image and sentiment are from The Crafty Nomad.   "I chose this angel because I like angels. I put some jewels on her dress.  My mom put the jewels on the bottom near the sentiment and I do not like it. Hope you leave a comment for me." Love from P.K. She is also entering the following challenges:  Children's Challenge Corner (Christmas or Winter), Simon Says Stamp (Anything Goes). 

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

I made this card using a Kenny K digi. They are the sponsor at Little Hands Challenge Blog. The theme is winter....you make snowmen in winter and Christmas is in the winter. I am very excited for Christmas!!! I am also entering my card at Children's Challenge Corner where the theme is also winter and at Simon Says Stamp Challenge ANYTHING GOES.

The twins say thank-you

Here are some thank - you cards the boys made for the following challenges:

The Crafters Cafe November Kids Challenge - Thanksgiving or Thank-You
Craft Your Passion Kids Challenge #2 Seeing Red

Merci means thank-you in French. The boys really liked stamping and writing their own words in the thought bubble and and on the bug's sign! Andrew used a RED marker to colour his sleeping bunny. Riley usually uses RED cause it is his favourite colour, but opted for orange this time ;)
