We're just finishing up "birthday season" in our extended family (7 birthdays in 11 days).
I always like to do something a little unique when giving a gift of cash - but was coming up short of ideas (and time) when the little yellow pad of Post-Its grabbed my attention. No more boring cash!
I just sketched & colored on the Post-It, making sure to take advantage of the little sticky strip. I cut out my "masterpiece" and attached it to Andrew. No permanent damage - but not your average $.
Andrew's party hat reminds me of a clown, which brings to mind the county fair, which makes me think of carnival foods. So I'm sharing my Carnival Food cutting file.
I've always had a weakness for cotton candy & elephant ears - what's your favorite?
(oooh, I just had a thought - wonder how Mr. Jackson would look with a big round red nose?? or a Bozo hairdoo?? or a Santa hat & beard?? or reindeer antlers?? Oh, my I think I've started something!) If this has sparked your creativity, I'd love to see what you've come up with - please share!!


Just a quick note to let you know that a link to this post will be placed on CraftCrave in the Cutting category today [08 Jul 01:00am GMT]. Thanks, Maria
