I went to visit my Grandma, Scrappymo at her RV. Grandpa was there too! I love visiting there but we have to drive a really long time in the car to get there. If we leave right after lunch, we can get there for dinner!
I like it best if Mum stops at the Kamloops Wildlife Park for a break. They have a really old grizzy bear there...he looks sad and a bit lonely. I like to see him and all the other animals. The Birds of Prey Show is really good too.
My little brother likes to go on the train at that Wildlife Park. Did I tell you he is 5 years old now!
The train goes past every animal. It is nice to take the train cuz it gets really, really hot there. Sometimes it feels like an oven door is open!!! The train conductor lets all the kids ring the bell! My brother loves that part.
I made some cards at the trailer. My Grandma told me she goes in a challenge when she makes a card with snippets...Grandma says that means making a card with scraps of stuff she already owns...
I think this will be a good contest for me to go in all the time as I only use scraps of my Grandma's stuff. There aren't any stores at the trailer (well, maybe a grocery store and drug store) so we have to use her scraps.
I wonder if they ever give copic pens away for prizes. I am going to make lots of cards if they do!!!
Here is my card. I had the flower on upside down but I fixed it. Grandma showed me how to hold the flower with the tips of my scissors when I set it down. That way I can see what I am doing!. I kept saying pass the tweezers...ooops, I mean scissors:) I cut the pink ribbon paper myself with the fussy cut scissors my Grandma bought for me. They are yellow and they have a little pointy bit that covers the edge (so my brother won't get cut). I am only allowed to use them with Grandma or Mum. Did I tell you that I will be 7 in October? I will be in Grade 2 then.
I wanted to sell this card for my pony fund but Mum said I can't sell them all:(
I think this is a good card for Auntie...Glamour Girl.. Her house is fancy like this card so I am going to show it to her!
I am entering this card in the following challenge
Pixie's Crafty Snippets - must use snippets. My snippet was the long pink border. I had to cut both ends to get the edges the same so it would be the same at each side. There is even enough left to make another card!
Hello Little Miss C - welcome back to the Playground! Oh wow, this really is a lovely snippets card, it's really grownup looking and so smart.
ReplyDeleteI do like your blog and am now following you - I thought I already did but sometimes looking after the Playground means I have to run around a bit and things might not get done.
Hope to see you playing again, hugs, Di xx
This is a lovely snippets card. I love your flower.
ReplyDeleteMiss C, what a lovely, lovely card. You are a lucky girl to have your Grandma to craft & have fun making cards. You certainly did a wonderful card. That was a very pretty border that you made, and lovely flower too. I enjoyed reading about your trip, your ride on the train, and congratulations on being a big 7 years old. Gosh, before you know it, you will be 8. I always enjoy seeing the cards that you make with your Grandma, and also your brother's cards too. Thanks for sharing them with us. Hugs
ReplyDeleteMiss C your card is so lovely and oh, it must be so much fun to craft with your Grandma! So glad I stopped in to view your snippet card, well done!

Gorgeous card there Miss C! You will soon be making cards nicer than your Grandma's! I wish I got chance to make cards with my Grandmas when I was nearly 7. You are a lucky girl!
ReplyDeleteHugs from Wales. I am now following you too!

Hello Little Miss C, your snippet card is beautiful and I love your pink border. I really enjoyed reading your post as much as I enjoy your grandma's and I'm so impressed that at only 7 years old you are writing up your very own blog. I look forward to seeing many more of your snippet cards. Hugs from your newest follower in Scotland. Elizabeth xx
