This is only a month past due posting, but I thought, better late than never!
Jenavieve turned One right before Christmas, so Bensen and I made her a little crown with the Cricut. Thought you might like to see some pictures of Crafting with Bensen and the Cricut 🙂
Bensen Loved to Cut! 🙂
We selected “Bithday Girl” and the Tiara from Storybook Cartridge
We used Best Ocassion Glitter Cardstock of in Pale Yellow for the Tiara Base.
Cut out Birthday Girl and the #1 with a Scallop Oval in Pretty Patterns from DCWV Glitter Stack and Best Occassions Pink
I also had Bensen “Make” Jenavieve a Card using a 12×12 sheet of paper that was left over from the Tiara! Always thinking in 12×12!! 🙂 This way after the party I could scrapbook him putting stickers and drawing on the paper along with the Tiara we made for her – always preserving every moment of this amazing journey that I can! 😉
Here is it! The Scallop at the top I let Bense “draw” on to give it that cool background – it was just Pink Cardstock. The “gems” on the crown are from Viva Decor – I used blobs of Glass Effects and Pearl Pens to give it big huge gem look.
This was a lot of fun! 🙂

Wow! These pictures and the story are great! I am so glad you shared! I did have a quick question, what is the age range of your two kids? Mine are 14 months apart and yours look to be just about the same or even closer.
Times with our families are the best!!! So glad you are enjoying every one!! Blessings to you and your family!!

Your son’s so adorable, he must feel like such a big brother helping make such a cute crown for his baby sis. Enjoy them to the max, while you can. Time really really flies. My son is 16 and daughter 13, I feel I’m loosing them already. Memories are great, but Scrapbooking the memories helps keep them more close to your heart. You relive the moments again, and again! Thanks for sharing!

What fun! I imagine Bensen felt very grown-up helping make the tiara and card! Great idea!
How cute! I’m glad you are treasuring these moments b/c the DO go by way too fast. I enjoy my grandkids now but there are so many times I look back and wish I could enjoy them all over again (and wish I knew about scrapbooking back then!!!)
Ihave a grandson who loves to cut on the Cricut also. Memories are so precious. Thank you for sharing some of yours.
These are precious pictures. I am sure that you will cherish them even more as time goes by. Our babies grow up much too fast.
Karen

This is soooooo precious. Thank you for sharing the pics with us.
Megan, the children are so cute. The project definately need a mans touch. Enjoy them while the are small because before long they will be grown.
So cute and so sweet that he wanted to make one for his sister.
That’s so cute! I have that cartridge too! Maybe I can do something similar for my little girl when she turns one! Thanks for sharing! You have adorable children!
Megan…..kids are sooo cute……You captured a few scrap book pages right there….
Enjoy …they grow up too fast.

AWWWWW…how cute….don’t you love getting hugs? What a beautiful family…thanks for sharing…
Awwwwww! How CUTE!!! TFS! Great job on the crown!
She wears that tiara very well! Your son is so cute helping.
I wish I had taken more pictures when DD was little, though it’s easier now that I don’t have to get the film developed lol. I love digital.
Precious!
This is so cute Magen!!!
Candi
AW!!! so sweet they are
Awwwwww, Megan, that is adorable. Those are great pictures of Benson helping. Your kids will really enjoy looking at those when they are grown…which will be in the blink of an eye. Yesterday, mine were all under the age of 5; today they are 21, 18, 18 (yes, twins), and 16. lol
Wow – very cute. Your pic’s bring back fond memories of crafting with my babies. At 15,13 and 10 years old we still craft (they’re better at operating my bug)!Enjoy!
Beatiful…So cute.
Thanks for sharing this precious moment with us. It reminds me some of the wonderful moments with my children. Mine two (Diana & Matthew) are young adults in the work force now. I wish I had the Circut back then. My daughter occasionally uses the Circut for her projects.
So cute. It is so nice of benson doing something so nice for his sister. My grandsons lack 3 days being exactly 2 years apart. They are 3 and 5. The 5 year old just said this past week that since his brother is NOT a baby anymore he doesn’t hate him anymore.
Maybe now I can get some cute pictures of them together. (we do have a few but not many)
Megan – thanks for sharing. These pics are so cute. Make sure you keep taking of both kids. I have 18 and 10 yr old boys. Seems like they were little just yesterday. But I feel I short changed the older one, as I wasn’t scrapbooking and carrying a camera every place like I do now.

you are wise to treasure these times. thanks for the sweet pictures.

I was not scrapbooking when my kids were little so now I have to get those special pics with my grandson. Every time he comes over he wants to “cut with cricut”!!
This post came on the perfect day! I have a daycare and we are celebrating a birthday today!! By the time I got the cupcakes on the plates I had made a crown!! Thanks so much!
wonderful photos…thanks for sharing 🙂
My lil girl is going to turn 1 on feb 17th and I think I am going to do this too.. I don’t think she’ll keep it on her head though haha
Oh my gosh…This post is so adorable! Bensen is such a little babydoll! Happy belated Birthday wishes! Thank you for sharing the photos, they really made me smile!
