On the drive back from the Pancreatic Cancer Symposium last weekend, we were so lucky to spot a fantastic rainbow!! (A sign I took as a good omen!) Emily remarked that she wished she could slide down the rainbow, and I thought that was a great idea!
First, take some photos of the kids pretending to go down a super-fun rainbow slide! Ya-hoo!!!
Have fun!!

Dear Valerie,
Clara's picture reminds me of when she ate fruit loops when she was first introduced to big girl cereal.
Love Mark
Adorable idea. You must spend allot of money at supply stores!
Very cute. I love all of the fun things you do with pictures.
@ Mark — There's no turning back now, is there?
@ Just Breathe — Construction paper and glue are very inexpensive, but the printer cartridges can be pricey. We order ours from monoprice.com and they are much cheaper there!
@ Christy — Thank you!!
Very cute! I love the crafts you make with photos of your kids!
Great blog!!
Thanks for sharing this.
oooooo
LOVE this! I'm actually about to print a bunch of pictures of my kids for them to make their own personal timeline.
I love what you come up with just from a passing comment. These are adorable.
I loved the end result – I could see our rainbow having about 3 pieces glued in though. Somehow mosaics is yet to see success in our house π
Now I'm hungry for Skittles!
Totally clever. My kids would love this!

@ MaryAnne — Thank you! Emily loves pretending with these photos, but it surprised me when Clara got into it too!! We had a lot of fun! π
@ Eileen — You're welcome! Thank you for stopping by! π
@ Emily — I still can't believe you are leaving comments on Mommy's blog already!!!!
@ Ticia — That sounds like a GREAT project! Can't wait to hear more about it!
@ Anna — Seems like that is how we get the majority of our ideas around here! It is a lot of fun!!
@ Raising a Happy Child — I don't think Clara would have done the mosiac part if Emily wasn't there doing the project right along with her. Of course, she tries so hard to keep up with her big sister!
@ An Almost Unschooling Mom — Funny! It had that effect on me too, but all we had were Reese's Pieces…. still YUMMY! LOL
@ Erin — There was plenty of giggling here… have fun!!!
So cute, Valerie! I love it.

ADORABLE – as always!!!
Adding this to my summer activity list!

@ Dyan — Thank you soooo much for taking the time to vote for me!! I really appreciate it!! xoxo π
I do love how you incorporate pictures as part of your projects.
Valerie I enjoy seeing all the crafts you come up with. I have started saving the inside of envelops that come in the mail from bills….I noticed they have some really different designs on them. Have you ever thought of using them and for what?

Such a cute idea!
I love what you're doing with those little photos. So cute and creative.
Oh my goodness, I think this is great! I bet these would make wonderful cards too. I know a certain little girl who would love to spend her afternoon doing this, π
Hi Valerie. (and Mark)
