This week at Card Ideas the challenge is to make a Winter/Christmas bird card/project with a bird somewhere on your project. I did one better and used a whole flock! lol!
TOP:
I used an old watch case that my son's Relic watch came in for my case. I covered the top with scrap designer paper from Pizazz and added some Tim Holtz tape around the outer edges to give it a nice finish. Then I colored the image, "For the Birds Snowman" with my Copics and used some puff paint for the flocking on his coat. This I then cut out and placed on the front of the case. I used my label maker to print out the name of the game.
I also added the same paper to the inside bottom of the case to give it a more finished look.(Had to make it look like it belonged with the top!)
Game Pieces:
For my game pieces I just enlarged that image of the bird in the snowman's gloved hand a whole bunch of times. These I colored with my Copics doing two of each color for a color matching game. Then I cut these out using an SU punch and then placed on circle cut with my Cricut. I then laminated them in my Laminator and cut them out!
Phew...! Sounds like a lot of work but it was pure fun! I love when the old brain cells start to "kick in" and your creativity is there again!
Thanks for giving me this fun chance to design for your challenge Faith! I had a blast and the bonus? I have one gift down for Christmas and only 267 more to go! haha!

Come back often and see what's new... " But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect."

Love your box and how creative to make a "matching game" set! So glad you joined us for the Anything Goes challenge at AiFactory this week.
Wonderful project Georgia! It does look like a lot of work, but well worth it!
That is so beautiful, thanks for sharing!
Georgia, what a very creative and fun project! Kids would love this matching game, and you did such a great job putting all the pieces and the container together. LOVE IT.
