A Fun Project

Kayla and Marissa came over for a visit a few nights ago.  I wanted to provide them an activity to have some fun with, so I decided to help them make some Christmas cards to give out.

I had some supplies for the project but not everything the girls needed, so we headed out to a few craft stores.  First we went to Joann's to pick up some Christmas themed paper that was on sale.  When we finished there we headed over to Michaels to pick up a few more supplies. While shopping at Michaels we found some packages of stickers to use, and some Christmas themed rubber stamps.

After we finished our shopping and ate some dinner, the girls got busy working on their cards.



The girls really enjoy working on crafts.  They especially liked the cute Christmas stamps we bought. The stamps came in a package which included several different types of santa's, christmas trees, ribbon-wrapped packages, snowmen, holly, and even a cute reindeer - we all thought it was the cutest!

Looks like lots of hard work went into these cards!



And some fun too!

When the girls were all finished each had made three cards to give out.  They all turned out really cute and the girls had a lot of fun working on their projects.


The finished cards, all ready to give out.
