Personalised Kids Craft Christmas Cards

I originally had this idea that I could make some stamps and it would make writing Christmas Cards easier, as my 5 year old could just stamp his name! First of all I wrote the names on paper in bubble writing and cut them out. Next I took a potato and cut it in half. … Read more
