Remember the craft swap I signed up for (see the flag banners)? I wanted to share Jana's craft idea since I'm compelled to make it a summer project for Ms. Bean. Jana's son loves to steal her camera and photograph everything, including posed stuffed animals -- remember doing that as a kid? So she put those photos to good use and made a concentration game out of them. Jana glued Karsten's photos onto a thin cardboard stock and voila...a fantastic, homemade game that would add a sense of pride. To finish it off, she also made that pretty little bag to stash all of the pieces in.
Thanks for the post!
I should mention that I put contact paper on the back of the card stock too (before I cut them down to size.)
Next time I am going to take cuter card stock and then put clear contact paper on the back to jazz it up a little more.
The contact paper seemed to make it a little stiffer, but maybe it isn't needed.
