Its been weeks since the girls and I took on a crafty project, but yesterday Sophie and I started talking about making cards for JD's birthday. She decided, completely on her own, that she wanted her card to say I love you from my toes to my nose. Before I knew the ides were flowing and we ended up with some really cute homemade cards.
First, we took a load of pictures (because moving targets are hard to catch). Here is a sample...
Then with scrap booking paper, a paper cutter and some glue we made these.....

| I love you to the bottom of my heart! |

| Happy Birthday! |
...and yes, we wrote on Molly's bare torso. She loves to be naked all of the time and where else would a love message come from but your heart - it all seemed fitting.
JD is very anti-greeting card. He thinks they are a waste of money, a cash grab, a holiday marketing ploy and all that stuff. I'm sure he is going to think these homemade cards are better. Isn't it true though? I can think of very few things that aren't better when they are homemade. Now, what can we make next?
That is the cutest thing I have ever seen! I may have to steal that idea for my hubbys bday in a couple of weeks!!! Awesome!!
