At the end of August Lauren and Ben went to England for a friend's wedding, leaving Lila and Noah with us. I thought it would be fun to help Lila make cards we could send to her parents (digitally!) while they were gone. I had gotten the new Martha Stewart CraftStudio app for our iPad but had not had much of a chance to use it yet. Lila and I had a lot of fun choosing a cute photo of her and then making a simple card that we emailed to her parents the first day they were gone. We would have continued to make more (I was planning on one a day) but my kids were so intrigued with the app that they each wanted to make something too. Before I knew it Lila had lost interest and I had a bunch of digital artwork instead! Even if you do not have cards or invitaitons to make it is a lot of fun to play with. My kids all have fall birthdays and I plan to make party invitations andthen thank you notes when the time comes.
