Kids Crafts Blog Hop

If you are looking for Joy's Birthday Blog Hop click here

Welcome to the Kids Crafts Blog hop! You should have arrived here from Jessica's blog at The Creative Stamper's Spot.  If you are here from elsewhere, you should start the hop by visiting Jen at The Purple Scrapbooker.  We have lots of kids showing off their creative skills and you don't want to miss them!! Here's a list of the participants in case you get lost along the way or want to re-visit any of them.

Both my girls  Jessica (11) and Elizabeth (13) were very exited to be a part of this blog hop. Thank you Jen for putting this together! They love to be creative and at times do join me during my craft time and even help me when I have big projects!   Here's a picture of them taken at their cheerleading christmas party, so you know who my little crafty princesses are:



Jessica (on the left) made a card for her cheerleading coach for her birthday.  She used her cuttle kids and cut each piece and arranged them by herself.  No help from Mom!! She decorated both the inside and outside of the card.  She used the colors that are from Rockstar Cheer, which are black, purple, pink and zebra print.  Needless to say, her coach absolutely loved it!!!



Elizabeth is in 8th grade and has always loved art.  She is currently taking a ceramics class in school and has made several projects.  She also decided to do something for her coaches, so she made this plate with the same colors for Rockstar Cheer (abbreviated on the plate) and put the coaches initials in it (James, Shannon, Megan).  You can't really see the purple that good, but trust me, it's purple! They haven't received this yet.  Luckily they don't follow my blog, so I don't think they will find out about this! LOL!



Elizabeth also altered this flower pot and decorated with acrylic paint and added the ribbon.  She took the picture herself  :).  She placed the pot upside down and did a base color.  Then she sparingly poured different colors and let it drip down to dry, giving it the upside down dripping effect.



The girls would like to give away some blog candy.  So if you leave a comment, a winner will be chosen on Tuesday, January 22nd and a small gift will be sent their way.  You do not need to be a follower, but I would love it if you chose to!  Thanks for stopping by and showing your support to all the wonderful kids and their creative crafts! Now you can head on over to Annette from Addicted to Crafts.  Happy hopping and God bless!

Nana's Craftin Buddy said...

Hello! I am doing this blog hop with my 4 year old Kaleigh. Her Nana made her a blog and Kaleigh made a card and it's been posted. While Kaleigh & her brother were at Nana's she thought if she made a card she could just join in.

Here is what Kaleigh has to say now ;) (mom typing) I like all your cards and stuff they are very pretty. Thank you for showing it to me.

Kaleigh

Please stop by her blog and follower her if you would. It'll make her day!

These projects are just awesome!
It's so good to see young kids involved in crafts!
When I was their age I love crafts so much and back then we didn't have as many resources to get supplies, but we figured out how to be crafty anyway!
These projects are all projects that I could have done back then, with very little resources, just a lot of creativity! Your girls are fabulous and so talented! Thank you for sharing with us!

My name is Dakoda, I'm 3. I need that **translation - I like the plate and would like to make one like it**.

My name is Taylor, I'm 5. The card with the zebra balloon is pretty (she's into zebra's right now). I asked my mom if we can make a flower pot like yours to plant our flowers in; she said yes.

Mom - you both did amazing jobs!!! I love your creations; keep up the great work!!!

fabulous card and she decorated the inside.. That is just like a creative child! And I think most of us adults leave the inside blank...

Becky Dunham said...

Sweet projects girls! I love when the younger generation wants to craft! My kids and I do crafts together often - they are 13, 16 and 19 - I always encourage their creativity, I think it is important to have something that makes you happy :)
