Counting Activity

I haven't been very creative again so I'm pulling out a project that I've had for over a year and I'm hoping I can get it done before school starts.  It's still a work in progress, but I seen this along time ago and wanted to try it.  It will have a total of 10 templates with 9 of them having pockets on them to insert the number cards.  The front card will be the introduction and then the rest will have the numbers.  Each number card will have a tab on it to make it easier to pull out the number card.  So here is what I have so far.  It's just time to put everything together.  When it's done and the student opens it up there will be 5 cards in front and then turn it over and 5 cards in back.

A ribbon will run through to make it easier to fold the cards up so they are in a nice neat pile.

Keep watching for updates!

Life is Tweet: June Stamp of the Month

It's that time of the month again and we are off to a new Stamp of the Month. This is the last stamp of the month in the new catalog. If you have come here from Annette Green's Blog you are on the right path. If you get lost you can click here and you will find a list of all the blogs.

This stamp of the month is called, "Life is Tweet." We have a lot of wonderful consultants participating this month.

For this card, I used the Die-Cut Cards and Envelopes (Z1474) for my card base.  I haven't been very creative lately so I'm starting to get my back in the swing of things and hope my mojo comes back. LOL  For the green and gray circle I cut them out of "Dotty for You" collection and if you haven't got that paper pack yet it's AWESOME!!!!

Here is in the inside of the card.

Few odds and ends

Here are a couple of cards that I made and just haven't had time to put them up on my blog.  The first card is a template I found in a magazine and was working with different coloring techniques for the bear.

This next card is pretty basic and is a spellbinders that you fold over the tabs and it forms a design.

New Technique

It's been awhile since I've last posted and I've had this card just sitting on my desk so I thought I would get it up.  It's a different design and something fun and easy to make. The one thing I like about this card as you pull the front down it shows the different little squares that have different designs on them.

Pull down on the ribbon to make the differet squares open up.

This is what it looks like once you have pulled the ribbon fully down.
