Gonna party like it's 2007!

There's going to be a Knights and Dragons party here pretty soon for my son's fifth birthday celebration. Today I worked on the invitations, at least the outside. The castle and crown were cut with my Cricut machine and the other decorations are stickers from the local scrapbook store. This probably way too much effort for an invitation, but it was fun to come up with the card. I did get some help with ideas from the Cricute online forum. I need a few more knight stickers to finish up the remainder.

Inside will have a parchment looking paper with the invite details.

Not the only creative one

In my not so humble opinion, I have a creative genius for a son. Well I think so anyways. My son brought this creation home from pre-school on Monday. From what we could understand, he says it is for when you get out of the space ship and something about shooting things. There are many things going on here, with some interactive bits as well. Unfortunately, the picture does not do this justice.

April showers bring Valentines cards?

A little late, but I finally edited the pictures to post here. My son and I made Valentine's day cards for his classmates. I purchased a Cricut machine about a year ago and this was a perfect project for it. We had a lot of fun putting the puppies and hearts together. I put a sticker on the back that said Happy Valentine's Day! and my son signed his name.

At first I had no idea if I would really use this cartridge with all the puppies, but it was just great for the valentines. I think it worked well for either boys or girls.
