When I came across this bright and intriguing wreath on Pinterest, I had to do a double take. A wreath made of egg cartons? Genius! After heading over to the corresponding blogfor directions, I thought, What an easy project and one that my son will enjoy creating, too. Sound the buzzer. Wrong! But in the end, it was such a cute wreath and a present I’m sure oma (grandma) will enjoy : ]

Learn high quality techniques and unique ways to jazz up your scrapbooks over at the Club Scrap blog, and join the Club Scrap Kit Club for fun themed scrapbooking.
May 4th is National Scrapbooking Day, and before you break out all of your fun embellishments and stickers, consider taking a minimalist approach for a few of your pages. Using the less is more philosophy for this page, I only used color in three areas of this layout – in the title, the photo, and a rubber stamped embellishment. The rest of the page is basically black & white only.
I altered the 5×7 photo in Photoshop leaving only the actual art project color remaining. Then using Club Scrap’s “Color” rubber stamp , I stamped the image on five different cardstock colors and trimmed out the letters within.
After attaching the trimmed out letters with black mini foam squares, I had a fun embellishment that complimented my page well.

You may have seen ourEric Carle Easter Eggs recently, which were inspired by Dilly Dali Art’s Eric Carle post. Our egg project had us painting on waxed paper for the first time, and it was such a beautiful process, I thought we’d experiment a little more, using that kind of canvas.
I really didn’t have any set project in mind when we started out. The process just kind of evolved as we were painting.

The hooligans were experimenting with food coloring and medicine droppers (or pipettes) today, and we created these simple and sweet paper towel butterflies with the results of their activity.
We do this activity at least once every year here our daycare because it’s always popular no matter how old or young the children are.

My girls have been fascinated with jellyfish since seeing hundreds of them washed up onto New Smyrna Beach last summer. Together we crafted a sting-free variety out of paper bowls, yarn and glow-in-the-dark acrylic paint. Would you like to learn how?
