Hope the Easter Bunny was good to everyone! He sure was good to our family, in two houses even. The girls were so excited. I have really gotten into the holiday spirit this year, making multi-colored pancakes for every holiday imaginable! Today was no different. We started the morning with neon green, blue, pink and purple pancakes. We spent the afternoon/early evening in Thompson with Grandma Lustig, Mike's parents and his sister and brother in law. With dinner, we had a fruit salad with edible flowers, with which, craft was born.
Last weekend, we were going through boxes and boxes of stuff and I found frosty "laminate" paper that I thought "ohhh, that would be cool to make bookmarks with this fall. Well, today, as we were leaving Grandma's house, I was thinking in overdrive to come up with a craft for tonight.. i am noticing a trend here, i am not planning as well as i used to be!... and as we climbed into the van, I thought "omg, flowers!" so I went running back to grab the edible flowers.
When we got home, I pulled the laminate sheets, a 12x12 white cardstock, and markers out. I cut the cardstock into 2x7inch pieces with my handy paper cutter from Christmas (thanks, Mike, again!) and let the girls at them with markers. When they were done, we added flowers to them, and laminated them together. After they went to bed, I added floss tassels. Now i am wondering if the flowers are going to mold/dissolve, etc. Time will tell, I guess!
oh, btw, the shaving cream flop eggs- here is a picture of them after i cracked them hahaha. I guess it worked, just not on the shell! :-p
