Reto # 5 Para Niños ó Por Niños

This month we have such a FUN challenge over at Dilo en Español - the theme is For Kids or By Kids. We are looking for projects made BY KIDS or FOR KIDS. I thought this was a great idea since I have a 5 year old that is always "trying" to help me craft and wants to use all my tools (and expensive nice paper!) to make "cricut" stuff with me.

Well today I allowed him - with supervision of course - to use my cricut and my tools to make his own little card. I let him choose the paper and he picked green because that is his favorite color. I set up the all the items he needed and "designed" the card for him, but I let him put it all together all by himself.

Here is the set up I made for him to start the card with:

I allowed him to pick the stamp he wanted to use and he asked for one that said PAPI because he wanted to give it to dad. I asked him why not make it for Mommy? He said, I think I want to give it to Dad :( He also saw the little sun and wanted to make sure to use it because the sun is bright and the turtle needs light to see mommy ..... hmm ok. LOL

I tried letting him use my liquid glue and that almost turned into a disaster, thankfully the glob of glue did not get into the card so I was able to substitute it for a glue stick.

And here he is my handsome little man proudly showing his first card!

While I was taking photos of the card and working on my blog post he stayed in my craftroom playing with some scraps of paper, he was really quiet - which anyone that has kids knows that is never a good sign unless they are asleep - this is what he was working on:

This is Daddy and Mommy Rocks. I am the little rock with short legs that are stuck under LOL 

This was a great project and Xaeed loved creating his card, maybe I am creating the next Tim Holtz!! ha ha I doubt it but I know he has fun crafting with me. 

Materials:

- Sentiment Queremos Pastel Set

-Create a Critter: Turtle 

-Misc cardstock and ribbon

-Googly Eyes - which are now Xaeeds favorite along with glue dots
