VBS Crafting with SU!<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\nAs many of you know, last week was Vacation Bible School for us.\u00a0 I thought I would share one of the crafts that involved a lot of work and a good number of Stampin’ Up! supplies.\u00a0 The theme was Gold Rush: Discovering the Rock of Ages.\u00a0 To go with that, we made this cute Miner’s Journal.<\/p>\n
We started with two pieces of cardboard and then the children painstakingly tore little pieces of masking tape to cover front and back of each piece of cardboard.\u00a0 (They had a bunch of adults helping with all that tearing!!)\u00a0 Once the masking tape was in place (can you see the two different kinds of tape I used on mine??), we used the Soft Suede Classic Ink Pad and Stampin’ Sponges to rub ink into the tape giving it a fun leathery look.<\/p>\n
The Crop-A-Dile was wonderfully handy as I punched holes through all the sheets of cardboard and the sheets of copy paper inside the journal.\u00a0 We used some twine\/yarn sort of stuff I found to tie all the pieces together.<\/p>\n
The Circles #2 Big Shot die made cutting out circles of “leather” easy and then the cross you see here was cut out with the Lattice Big Shot die (with a little extra cutting with scissors) out of fun foam.<\/p>\n
The journals took a lot of work but I’m sure glad for the tools I have to help it along!\u00a0 I’m also very glad for the wonderful helpers I had!!\u00a0 The children did a wonderful job and I think they walked home pleased with the end result of their work.<\/p>\n
Thank you for stopping by today!\u00a0 I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing this fun project from VBS.<\/p>\n
