We bought my son, Dallas, a "Little man's tool kit" at Lowes a few months back, and ever since we have built all kids of things. I think everyone on our street now has a Dallas made birdhouse or birdfeeder, LOL. At least he is learning a skill and having a good time doing it.
I am super pround of myself with this page. I set out to re-create the Lowe's logo, and I think I did a pretty good job. It took me a little time and the cricut craft room, but I got it done. I used craft room basics to make the Lowes sign by layering basic shapes until I had the outline. I used the cricut cartridge: Handman to cut out the hammer and nails. I really don't like my handwritting, so I printed the title and the journaling block using my laptop. The best part is that other than the background paper, everything else was made using paper from my scrap stash, including the transparent paper. Materials Used: Cricut: Handyman (hammer and nails) and Craft Room Basics (Lowe's Logo) Paper: The Paper Studio: Little Boys and Their Toys paper pack Font for text: Berylium

Like the layout. Wonderful that your son likes tooling. Denton is not far from Plano. Visit Lewisville in Denton County when we come to Carrino's Italian restaurant. Thanks for entering Pause Dream Enjoy Forgotten Stash challenge.
