Stamping with a 2 yr old?!!!

Now I know that it is hard to think about, but YES I stamped with my 2 yr old grandson. He saw I was cutting paper so he gets on my lap to help.
We cut lots of paper and I had some of the flowers cut out but then we started. Let me tell you 2 yr old's LOVE the Stampin' Up Snail. There is something fun about gluing stuff down. He picked up the pieces I put the glue on the back and he stuck it down. Cooper also loved the Stampin' Up Dimensionals. We did not understand that once you put the dimensionals on....you can't take them off. . Cooper wanted to put the Stampin Up Embooss powder on everything. We mixed up the gold, silver and the indescent ice. Only mixed up a little. Cooper didn't like the heat gun but he did like the magic. The second card he took the frames from the cut outs and we used a sponge and used them as stencils.
On the one card he stamped with the Versa Mark with the stamp set "Sending Happy Thoughts"

Next week Father's Day Cards with Cooper.... My first Stampin' Up Workshop went well....But he didn't have money with him at the time. But he made a "Make and Take" He just took it before Grand Ma could take a photo of it.

May Card Day

Today is make a May Card Day for me. I used the Stampin' Up Bloom stamp. This stamp you can do so much with. My bee I stamped on card then stamped it again on some whisper white scrap , colored the bee, embossed his wings and cut him out.Then I mounted slightly off the lower stamp. Now it looks like a shadow....COOL! Also on the coloring I randomly painter the blooms with lilac and barely blue. I like the look. As for the other 3 cards I used the same stamp but put it on 3x6 card stock and added the edging with my lace edge punch. I found this on Stampin' Ups Stampin' Connection and the cards were done by Dawn G. It was a great video. Tomorrow is Father's Day cards

Chest

This chest pattern I got from inkingidaho.com
I was not sure I could do it but it turned out to be easy. I used a "no name paper" (because I do not have many sheets of 12x12.)  I made 2 of these in one day. I gave one to my daughter-in-law Brenda for my grandson's room......I think it probably never got there. I really liked making these, but next time I make it, I am going to do it in white......now if my order will come......

Exploding Boxes

This pattern my sister sent me. I think she got it from a friend of hers. This project was fun and easy. As you will see I used some Stampin up paper for the box on the right and a "no name paper" for the other. Also I used someother "no name paper to make the baby one that is open. These boxes are ment for putting pictures in so you can have a "photo/ scrapbook on your desk to share with friends. The day I made these boxes, I made 10. That is how easy they are.

Card Day

This was Card Day ......... I used " Love bug" for the card on the left. What a cute stamp. I wanted it to look like the mommy bug was pushing the baby. The other card was done with the "Voila" stamp. I just love this guy and you can do so much with him. I like the brads too.

Envelope Day part 2

This was also done on envelope day. These I did with "Patterned Pines" and embossing powder. I sealed the envelopes and cut them in half. I also put the bottom half through the crimper after I stamped on the trees. These can be used for money envelopes. I found this on the "stampin' up "WOW " DVD that I got when I became a Stampin' Up demonstrator. It has lots of great tips on it.

Envelope Day

This was the day I made envelopes all day.
I used " Sending Happy Thoughts" and " A Little Bit of Happiness" to make the envelope with the flowers and " Sending Happy Thoughts" and Petal Pizzazz" for the leaves. I really enjoyed coloring them
