Fun Finds

My daughter Sarah and I were at out local Michaels the other day and came across a great new section the have. It contains a ton of packaged paper shapes (they are called paper but are really kind of thick like chip board). They had all kinds and my mind was going wild with ideas. We decided to purchase the Boomarks(only .99 for 12) for a fun starter project as well as the package of alphabet letters ( the best deal $1.99 for 130 letters).
On the way home we decided that these would be a fun Valentine gift for her to make for her class ( no candy allowed at her school :( ). We will make a book mark for each student in the class with there initial on it....so fun right! Here are a couple quick starter samples I made. We will post the class ones closer to Valentines.

Have a Great day!

Wait, that looks like a lot more ingredients than just those little white bookmark and letter shapes you started with. You are so crafty. I will never be able to make something that looks like that. Could you do a step by step? It's supposed to rain again the next couple of days. Good time for scraping, crafting, etc. Stay dry! Blessings, Tia
