Simon Says ,,,,,, Children's Summer Holiday Challenge

Hi all and welcome to our annual Children's Summer Holiday/ Back to School Challenge :-)

The theme is ...

ANYTHING GOES !! :-)

this challenge is specifically for children between the ages of 2 and 16 years of age so now is the time to let your Children, Grandchildren, Nieces and Nephews loose in your craft rooms !! :-)

We have not one but 2 very special prizes for this event !!



2 lucky winners will each win one of these fabulous Junior Stamper Kit's !! Woo Hoo !!! :-)

In celebration of crafting with our kids, we have developed this "Junior Stamper" kit targeted for ages 4 through 14. The kit includes whole assortment of products from stamps, ink, neon papers, coloring pages, twistable crayons, markers, window markers, to stickers, construction paper, glue stick, washi tape, and scissors (safe for 4+). There is a huge list of supplies and many of them reusable for a long time to come. It's important to celebrate our children and so the kit is complete with a "Junior Stamper" Certificate of achievement.

We have some very talented junior designers for your inspiration so please hop over to their blogs and leave them all a nice comment:-)

Megan, Age 5 (almost 6)

Adrienne age 7 (Mandy's Goddaughter)

Lauren - age 10, Laurel's niece

Antonio - Age 6, Melissa's Son

Ariana - 10 yrs. (Lisa's daughter)

Emily - 7 yrs. (Lisa's daughter)

Heidi's son Jaxon (almost 5)
Jaxon loves pirates so mommy and Jax made a treasure chest filled with Tim Holtz Idea-ology findings. Mommy and Jaxon create their favorite memories when they sit side by side "crafting"!
Then Jaxon created his own pirate art! using Tim Holtz markers, stamps, watercolor brush and some Studio Calico number stamps.

This Children's Challenge will run until 8am EST on 31st August so you have plenty of time to join in !! AND you can enter and many times as you like !
