Colouring Cards Flashback - Kylie's Trip Achievers Blog Hop


 Happy Blog Hop Day!

Every month, my friends from around the globe and I bring you projects made with current Stampin' Up! products.  We hope to inspire you with what we share.  Like it?  Leave a comment!

This month I took a total BLAST FROM THE PAST!  Who remembers when we had Stampin' Wheels?  Hands up for those who still HAVE them and can't part with some of the adorable animal wheels we had?  Remember the barnyard animal one??  My personal fave!  There was a craze back then, for kids cards, and the Peekaboo Farm set inspired me to bring that craze back.  Check out my cards!





Ska-WHEEEEELLLL!  I love them so much! lol!  They take approximately 6 minutes to make!  Oh sure, they're not great for mailing (broken crayons make me sad!) ... but they are a FUN card to attach to a present for in-person giving!  Of course you can jazz them up with more stamping and/or embellishments but you certainly don't have to for an adorable card.

FUN FACT:  Did you know that you can go to Staples and buy SINGLE CRAYONS????  WHAAAAAATTTT?  TRUE STORY!  They sell crayons in packs but they ALSO sell them by the crayon!  You could go buy 20 brown and 20 grey crayons, if that's what you want.  WHO KNEW???  (I can't tell you how many PACKS of crayons I have purchased over the years just to get the WHITE crayon for crayon/wax resist techniques!)

You attach the crayons with glue dots - poke holes in the white layer with your Take Your Pick tool and feed ribbon through the holes to tie in a bow.  BAM!  6 minute card.

I'm listing the primary products used below, but not the inks, papers, or ribbons - use what you like for the critters and colour combinations you choose!

Would you like a full PDF Tutorial for these cards, as well as 9 MORE quick and easy Children's Card for Beginner Stampers?  You can purchase the tutorial from me for $20 ... or it is yours FREE with an online order of ANY amount through my store.  Click the link over in the right hand side bar for that.  Order that use the Host Code XET2YWV4 at the checkout will get and extra gift from me!


I hope you like my cards as much as I do!  It's nice to have a super quick, easy layout for kid's cards at your fingertips!

Thanks for popping in - now hop along and see what my friends have in store for you! ... and have a stampy day!
