Special Guest Crafter Today

Today I am welcoming a very special little guest crafter and it is my 4 year old granddaughter Peyton. She loves to craft with Nana and today is sharing some butterflies she created using the Hannah Montana cartridge. We cut the butterfly in shadow from the Daddys girl button at 5 inches. She decorated them with jewels, foam pieces, and markers. I know we had a great time today and she was giving them to her mom and dad.

Hope you have enjoyed all the great projects our team has put together for you. We can't wait to see what great creations you have for this challenge. I have created a two page layout and normally Christmas is easy for me, but I struggled this time because it is so darn hot and I could not get myself in the Christmas mood yet.
