Eleanor's First Card-Making Project

Ellie's day-care is doing a card-making project and her teachers asked for my help in coming up with ideas. The guidelines are that the kids make the cards...

her room at the time consisted of children 6-weeks to 9 months....

They don't really do much for 'art' projects.

That left fingerprints and footprints.

So here is what we came up with:

The Happy Birthday Card- the flames on the candles are made of Ellie's fingerprints

and the inside of the card
The Bee Card- I think this one is my favorite. The bees are the fingerprints.

The Footprint Card- The saying on the inside of this card reads: "Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never, ever the same. -Anonymous"

The Flower Card- the yellow center of the flowers are her fingerprints.

And the Snowmen Card- this one is cuter in person. The background snowflakes are raised using an embossing folder. And the snowmen have glitter on them to add a little something extra. This one contains both Ellie and my fingerprints.
and the inside of the card:

There is also a ladybug one similar to the bee one, but with Eleanor being out sick, we have yet to get red fingerprints to finish it up.

So there they are. Eleanor's first official card project. I am one proud momma!
