Happy St. Patrick's Day Weekend!

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend!  We're having crazy weather here . . . it's cold, and we actually had a few minutes of hail yesterday and again today!  If it weren't for the beautiful flowers blooming all around, it'd be hard to believe spring is almost here!!  But, I digress . . . on to the craft projects!

The big craft project around here for St. Patrick's Day was helping Timothy create his leprechaun trap for his kindergarten class.  Here he is putting on the finishing touches:



We covered the box in Garden Green card stock, and used the Full Heart Punch and Trio Heart punches to create shamrocks on top of the "trap."  Then, Timothy used Sticky Strip all around the top of the box and on a rainbow trap door into the box as part of his method for catching the leprechaun.  He was so excited and hopeful his creation would work!  He didn't catch anything, but he loved seeing all the mischief the leprechaun did in his kindergarten class.  Glitter and little green footprints everywhere!!!
