Hi Everyone!
Thank you for joining me for another Blog Hop! Today's Blog Hop is the Create A Book Blog Hop in honor of Read Across America Day!
I would like to thank Joy from Joyslife for letting me participate in this wonderful hop with all these talented ladies!!!
I will be giving away 3 bottles of Diamond Stickles! My favorite thing to use on all of my projects!!!
Just leave a comment below to enter and I will post a winner Friday Night! (March 4th)
(winner will be chosen using Random.org)
I decided to make a counting book, as my kids love to count!!!
All of my kids helped out in making this project. Erik who will be 3 in a couple of weeks helped pick what foods should go in the book. We put together the food he wanted on my Gypsy. Emma who is 1 helped by trying to grab everything we were working on! Rebecca who is 9 helped color half of the pictures in the book, I decided that would be easier than putting together all the small Cricut cuts. Douglas who is 6 read the book with me.. and Erik and I read it together several times :)
Here are the pictures of each page of the book.
Supplies:
White, Red, Blue, Green and Yellow Cardstock
Cricut Expression
Gypsy (for the several cartridges I used)
Xyron
Cinch
Cinch 3/4" O wires
Stampin' Up Markers
Diamond Stickles
Printed Font- Ck Elmer
Here is a picture of the prize that will be given to one random winner!
Thanks for stopping By!
