Everybody knows my eldest age 6 is crafty likes me and loves to draw and lately my youngest aged 4 has taken an interest in drawing too, so I decided to create an Art Book for each of them.
I used the No Limits collection to make my books- adhering them to some chipboard sheets that I cut to size. Once I had decorated the covers I had them bound at my local Officeworks.
Inside the book I created some drawing prompts to jump start their creativity. You can find these prompts on Heidi's blog here - I made them into a PDF file if you are interested in creating a book for your boys.
Both my boys loved them.
I was lucky enough to have Heidi write out both my boy's names in her trademark handwriting, which I then cut with my Silhouette and spritzed with ColorShine.
Everyday they ask me if they can draw in "their" special book, I love that I have a keepsake that I can keep for years to come and look back on and see what my boys were drawing.
