A crafting family
Happy Monday---I am sooooo glad to be home and in my own bed-even if it is only for a week! Today I want to share a about my niece, KYRA. You see, we are a crafting family of sorts. My mother is a stamper, card maker, and scrapper, and has done just about every other craft known to man, I am a paper crafter, and my niece has been bitten by the bug as well--both the paper crafting and the cricut bugs!
Kyra is so funny and witty for a third grader. On my recent trip home, she made it a point to bring her scrapbook that she has been working on to show me. She also went with my mom and I to the scrapbook show--and not one time did she ask for anything (she did walk away with a good haul) until we found some sparkle flock; which she when nuts over.
So the following pages are from her book--she did them all on her own. The picking of the paper, the placement on the page, and all the embellishments.
For her first book--I think it is wonderful. She loves color and can pick the most expensive paper in a collection with the best of us. At the show she made a Halloween bag with the new SEI iron ons (check them out at shopsei.com) and I think she used every single one that came in her kit. My projects go with less is more, and hers goes by more is more--I bet we have some projects over Christmas we will be working on!

She did a fabulous job on her scrapbook! I definitely see a budding scrapbooker and what a fun thing for the two of you to be able to do together!!! Lucky little girl!
ReplyDeleteHow great having a crafty family!! Kyra did a fantastic job on her pages. She does have a great eye for color!! Well done lil miss..scrap on! TFS
ReplyDeleteGreat story!! This is how traditions are started and Kyra clearly has "game"! The skills she has learned already will hold her in good stead as she grows up. And boy are her teachers going to love have such a creative and talented child in their classes! I see lots of great things in her future. Thanks for sharing such a fun story

What a GREAT job Kyra did on her first scrapbook. Way better than mine. :)
ReplyDeleteBryan, Kyra is a sweetheart. She reminds me of the 6 year old grandaughter. She loves when her "nana" comes to visit because we will sit down and "scrapbook". At this point, it is just putting coloring or painting pages in a scrapbook, but she still wants to put then on backgrounds and, of course, use the cricut to embellish. She already has an eye for color and loves to pick out the paper for everything. Glad you are home safe and sound and that your trip was a successful one.
ReplyDeleteust an average guy that loves the idea of scrapbooks..

Wonderful job Kyra!!! Very impressive! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteI see that talent sure runs in the family! Kyra did an awesome job!! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great job. Hope she keeps doing it as she gets older
ReplyDeleteOh, no! I glanced up & see that Sharon beat me to it, but I was thinking the same thing: I guess being crafty runs in the family!!! :) Your niece is a dimpled cutie and she did a great job on her scrapbook-it's really impressive!!!!!!!! I can't think of a better way to spend time together! ;)
ReplyDeleteKyra, this is a fabulous scrapbook!!! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteWow those are some awesome pages for a third grader. I'm impressed.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Home Bryan! Looks like you have some competition in the family! I see a future career with PC!! She is so amazingly creative. Tough to find that focus with a 3rd grader, but what spunk! Love it!
ReplyDeleteawesome! looks like she could use the 'shall we dance?' cart! :) TFS!
