Settle back and be amazed at all the creativity today in celebration of Dr. Seuss.



Why Fit In When You Were Born To Stand Out is really a dynamic statement that prompted me to make three double-sided stand up Dr. Seuss-like characters, which can be given as cards, arranged as a table decoration for a party, or nestled at a work station or desk.  Let’s face it - we all need uplifting from time to time.
Here's the set of three.
Kitty in a Hat
 Thing 1

Thing 2

Recipe for project

*Special Dr. Seuss paper from a local craft store – traced and cut for special piecings

*American Craft White paper for insides of each stand up character

*PPbN jpeg images from collection called Kitten in a Hat – printed out 2x in both horizontal directions per character (Kitty, Thing 1, and Thing 2)
*LoveBug Creations Rumple Ribbon for double-bow ties - ribbon at our LBC online store
*Gel pen for highlighting the features of each character
*A whole lot of fussy cutting and adhering with double-sided tape at the top of each character

Blog Candy Alert for USA residents - The Winner will receive a sample of LBC Rumple Ribbon from me. In order to be eligible you must
1. Become a fan of our LoveBug Creations blog (if not already)
2. Leave me a love note and a way to contact you - winner announced on Monday, March 4

Remember, no matter how you piece your paper and rumple your ribbon, have fun with it.......cyberhugs.......Mama LoveBug

Now, let's hop over to see what's shakin' with Melissa
