Simon Says Kids Challenge

   Good Morning! 

Penny is again participating in the 




Penny has another great craft to share with you all.

She created rock and beaded photo holders.

Super cute and the adults loved them as gifts!





Penny loves to paint and be creative.
So after a look at Pinterest we decided we had everything
we needed to make these photo holders.


1st the painting of the rocks.





 She's quite serious about this!




Well until she thought it looked like she painted a smiley face 
with ketchup and mustard lol

She's not wrong!




She added pretty beads to a wire and we attached it to the rock.
Also added a piece of felt under the rock so we wouldn't harm any furniture.
Crafting is all about the little details!






Penny picked out 2 of her favorite photos of her and Gramps.
As this was going to be a gift for him we thought they would be perfect.

AND she had created his apron for his birthday, painting her hand prints 
all over it and his name with a stencil.
  
They bake every week and now have matching chef's hats and aprons.
Tomorrow is Gramps last official babysitting day, mine was last Thursday.
Such fun times with this sweet child.
But don't fret there will be many, many more, just not on a weekly basis!




These would make great Teacher Gifts too!


Thanks for coming by and seeing Penny do her thing!

Appreciate your support!
(after all, she will inherit all of my stamps and craft supplies lol)

Enjoy~~

Kids Summer Vacation Challenge

  Good Morning! 

Penny is also participating in the 


We scoured Pinterest and decided to make a Little Red Schoolhouse Frame.
Penny starts Kindergarten on August 31st.

CRAZY!

And sadly that means our weekly babysitting gig is over.
We have been fired!  :(  

Thankfully we will cover early release days and
 teacher-in-school- days and of course a few vacation days. 

Here she is hard at work on the painting portion of this craft!
We glued the stickst together and I trimmed off the roof sides,
under her careful supervision.








See the tongue?!?!
hahahaha














When it was all dry she began to decorate it
with stickers and a picture of her gearing up for a soccer game.
That photo will be replaced once we have her official 1st day of Kindergarten photo!







She is very proud of herself!
(and so am I).




We {heart} crafting! 
If you recall, last year she made a card AND a video 
where she thanked her viewers and colored her 'centerments' LOL


Thanks again for rooting Penny on!

Enjoy!
