please come and "Create with Me"

some good reading arrived in the mail last week...

so Zoe even needed to take a break from fetching to see

what was written on pages 82-85.

"Yowzers my mom wrote this"

she declared with gusto...

then the blinders were lifted and she realized,
"No wonder she hasn't had time to throw me the ball!"


For any of you moms out there 
who love your kids but are feeling a tad panicked
(I have been there - it's OK to admit it)
with kids home from school who are already jumping on the beds,
and you are searching your brain and asking
 "what art projects can I create with them?"
then look no further -
your ship (well, really your magazine) has arrived.

 Stampington's new magazine
Create With Me
should be at bookstores in early July.
so set your timers, mark your calendars and hold your breath -
no not really...

 and if you flip to page 82-5 you should find 
one heck of a good article by me...

 and my art clubbers,

four of which are goofing around here

and putting the finishing touches on our collaborative book...

before we sent it off to Stampington

in hopes it would be published.

 I copied and sewed smaller books for each student to take home.
You can see the original post  here.


Stampington has put together the premier issue of
 Create with Me 
which is filled with fun, doable projects
to keep your brood happy all summer long.
enjoy and create and make memories with art this summer!
next week I will share the last two art projects from the year - 
3D Monet's garden for olders 
and butterfly blots for youngers.
happy summer creating!
