NEW BUSINESS CARDS + DOWNLOAD

I have more details from Elliott's party on the way, but before Alt becomes a distant fond memory, I thought I would share this with you. Alt is awesome for so many reasons, but one of my favorites is the business cards. There were so many clever and creative cards this year! These are the cards that I passed out. I might be a tiny bit obsessed with temporary tattoos (the first step is admitting it) so I knew that I wanted to design some tattoos to go along with my cards and I think they turned out really well. I had my cards printed off by Moo. And let me tell you, these cards feel and look amazing. For anyone looking for a great business card printer, I definitely recommend them. And because I love you so very much, I am making all of the tattoos downloadable for you! You're welcome. The balloon dogs were a hit at Alt, I hope you love them too! You can print off the balloon dogs here, and the paper airplanes and dinosaurs here. 

C'mon. You know you want one. 

KISS VALENTINE TATTOOS

I can't tell you how much I love these little kiss tattoos. As if I could say no to any temporary tattoo, but aren't these fun? We aren't throwing any kind of Valentine's day party this year, but wouldn't these temporary tattoos be perfect for one? Or give them out to little friends along with a note for an easy Valentine. They come in two sizes - both of which are great for little faces. You can download both sizes here. As with all of these homemade tattoos, you will need special tattoo paper, print it out, follow the directions that came with your paper and be sure to cut out your designs. We have been having a lot of fun sticking these on each other, and I am pretty sure you will too! 

Again, you can download the tattoos right here. Enjoy!

COLORING CHORE CHART

With the new year, we thought it was the perfect time to help Elliott out with some of his resolutions. This chore chart has been a huge help so far! It's more fun for him to clean up his toys or brush his teeth when he knows he gets to color the object to cross it off his list. And if they aren't feeling like coloring, a simple X or a scribble will suffice. You can download this chore chart here, or make your own! Either way you'll be happy about their new habits and they will have fun while getting stuff done! 

DINO-MITE VALENTINES

We found these rad dinosaur fossils a little while back and I thought they would be perfect for giving to Elliott's classmates at preschool for Valentine's day. It's a nice change from the endless candies and cakes they are sure to consume. I promise the kids will have a roaring good time with them (too much?) And if you love this idea, but still want to include something sweet, the rocks are actually chocolate! And believe it or not, they don't taste half bad. Don't they look totally real? We bought an extra set of dinos to keep for ourselves, because really. How could we not? To make these valentines, just download the tags here, cut them out, put a little tape on the back and stick them on. I used card-stock to give my tags a little more sturdiness. So easy, and guaranteed to be a hit with the kids. 

SLINGSHOT TARGET

After playing with Elliott's new slingshot over Christmas break, we realized we needed something to shoot. After setting up toys on the end of the couch (which was fun, don't get me wrong) I thought we should make a little game of it with a target. So of course I decided to make it available to you as well! Even if you haven't made a slingshot yet (what are you waiting for?) this target would be great for shooting rubber bands, throwing paper airplanes or anything else you can think of. If you'd like to play, you can download the target here. If you head to your local print shop, they can print it out as if it were a blue print for about $3! Pretty awesome, right? We're having a blast with ours. Elliott doesn't quite have the hang of it yet, but we're getting there. Have fun and happy shooting!
