Father's Day get together and more shakers!

I hope you all enjoyed your weekend and that all the Dad's out there enjoyed Father's Day! We did our Father's Day dinner last night (Saturday) since I have to get to bed early tonight because tomorrow is a work day! Having my sisters and their family over for dinner is always fun. I ended up cooking a ham in my slow cooker and it turned out so yummy! After dinner, I taught 2 of my nieces how to make the double shaker boxes. My niece Jen loves to color and was delighted to use the copic markers. Now she says that's what she wants for her birthday! haha! Here's Jen-Jen and Ally with their DSB's.
Here's Jen's...look at the wonderful coloring!

A close up...

Here's Ally's...Ally used the Snuggle image that I already colored because she's not into coloring, yet!

Before everyone left, had to take a photo with my sisters and Dad! Happy Father's Day dad!! (haha! look at mom in the background. She didn't realize that we were taking pictures!)

I'll be posting a fun project with a tutorial this week! Also, don't forget, sign up for the July one card swap will close on Thursday, June 25th! Thanks for visiting today!!

Your niece is talented, especially if this is the first time she's used the copics. Guess we know what she's getting for her birthday.
