Thanksgiving

It's the time of the year to keep crafting for thanksgiving and gratitude. And for the kids, it's making thank you cards for teachers.

Today it's bbC's turn to start the process as she will be leaving the current preschool in two weeks time, to change to a new preschool next year.

Here's a sneak of work in progress as I work with her to put together her items.


And what ms E was making last week? It's been completed and filled with her friends notes and addresses, as it is also her final year in preschool before she steps into primary school in 2013.


Myself, I've been crafting as well. A quick thank you card exchange in a course I was attending, & my recipient is a male classmate.







Maybe it's time to think about crafting and thanking someone today too. Start yours :)

Shared Time

The thing with being a working mum is that "me" time can be easily usurped by our kids. In this case, it's my crafting time.

I have been sharing my crafting time with Ms E, as she wants to make a farewell book for her friends and teachers to sign off.

Naturally, kids take a lot longer to craft, especially my 6 going 7 crafter. So here's the sneak peek of Work in Progress.

Kyle Birthday Card by E

Ms E had a good friend in school named Kyle. He had a birthday today and she wanted to make sure he had her address in it as well, as this is their final year in Kindy together.



She pulled out some supplies and declared to me that "Kyle's favorite color is green". After she dictated the stuff she wanted, I helped her trim the Bella Blvd paper and she pasted it down and chose her fonts. Thanks to the generous rak from TinkerB Mich, she had these nice fonts to match her card.


Finally, the card is finished with cute sprinkles and gem dots. Cuteness! ❤
