Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

-
Well, everyone I have some very exciting news - I am now a member of the Cooking With the Cricut design team. I'm so excited about this, as you all know that I am an avid fan of the working with the cricut machine in general. And now I have double the excuse to cricut create!!! This week is my first challenge for Cooking With the Cricut and the challenge is to celebrate Dr. Seuss's birthday by creating a project featuring your favorite Dr. Seuss book or a project that encourages reading. I choose to do the second.


I used my gypsy to weld this picture together. The reading boy and girl come from the A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge, the books in the middle come from the Wrap It Up cartridge, and the sentiment comes from the Storybook Cartridge.




I though that this would be perfect to decorate our reading nook upstairs. I will hang it above the bookcase at a later date, only because we will start painting walls soon.

I hope you enjoyed this first project that I create for Cooking With the Cricut. Now I challenge you to create something and link it up on the blog!!!

    *Gasp* You have a reading nook? I am SOOOO jealous! It's always been my dream to one day have a house where I can create a cozy little nook for reading. And if it ever happens, I may have to steal this wall-hanging from you - what a super idea! I love that it's a silhouette - so classy. :) Welcome to the CWC team! :)

    I love your wall hanging. I have a set of shelves that this would dress up very nicely. I need to pull those cartridges after I get home and make this.

We are now into August and I have been thinking a lot about the fact that school is coming. I have been homeschooling my daughter for the past year and a half. She is now going to go to a Christian school in the fall for junior high. I can't believe that she is in 7th grade already! I am both sad for me and excited for her. One of my favorite things about homeschooling, besides having my daughter home with me everyday, was using my Happy Planner for lesson planning. I love my lists and seeing my week planned out on paper. So, I was thinking through how to make a good use of my Happy Planner this coming year. I a blog post on how to set up a  War Binder . I looked into this War binder thing a little more closely and decided that that is exactly what I wanted to do with my Planner. I spent a lot of time looking around on FB and Pinterest to get ideas and eventually just decided that I just needed to start it.  I have struggled with making time for Bible Study and prayer in th
