Simon Says ... Children's Challenge :-)



Happy Easter Holidays to all of our children !! Time to PLAY !! :-)

Welcome to our first challenge dedicated to everyone between the ages on 2 and 16 ,,,, we thought 1 year olds may be a bit too young !! :-) We would like to encourage all you Mum's to let your children loose in your craft rooms ha ha :-)

The challenge is open for 2 weeks and will close at 10am GMT ( 9 am CET ) on Sunday 11th April


ANYTHING YOU LIKE

The theme is open so you can make whatever you like, cards, masks, bonnets, notebooks, anything you like, it does not even have to be Easter themed :-)

Heidi the owner of Simon Says Stamp will be giving a winner drawn at random, a $25 shopping spree to her store so you can choose whatever you like :-)



We have a lovely Design Team especially for this challenge and they have made these amazing creations for you to see :-)

Bah meant to add my son's name but mine is there instead. It's truly his project as there's no way in the world I'd have the patience to mess with those tiny tiny pieces of paper! He got a kick out of this so thanks!

What a fantastic idea!!! My son is 2 in August so he can't join but my sister is 15 so she only just can! She is making a card for my partner so I shall enter that for her when she is done!

My girls had so much fun making their cards! Both cards are posted in the same blog post so you´ll find the same link twice here. Hope that´s okay!

Wishing all of you a happy easter!

Brilliant idea, my five year old Son loves nothing better than gluing and sticking apart from playing outside. Have uploaded his creation.
