  New Year:    🎇 Hi everyone! I am creating this post to talk about... you guessed it - New Years!  I can't believe that 2022 is already coming to an end! To start off this post, I wanted to remind you of something - when 2023 starts.  This year, it starts on a Sunday!  I saw a reel on Instagram about New Years starting on a Sunday and the person said something like "how am I supposed to get a fresh start or do anything on a Sunday?" .  But for me, I'm glad it starts on a Sunday!  Sunday is the first day of the week, and it'll be the first day of the year, so it's kind of perfect haha.  What do you think? Are you happy that it starts on a Sunday or not?  Or do you just not care like most people? I don't know about you, but I still feel like it's 2020.  I actually typed  2020  earlier instead of 2023 (and fixed my mistake, of course)!  It's just feels so weird that 2020 was 3 years ago!  I think that once covid s...

  Paint Stamps:     🖌       Hi everyone welcome back to Sticky Note!  Today I am going to be showing you how to make these paint stamps then elf and tree!  First I will show you how to make the stamps: So first you're gonna grab some construction paper, any colour you like.  Then draw some shapes.  The shapes I will be showing you how to transform into stamps are: triangle square/rectangle pentagon trapezoid If there is any other random shape or a shape not listed here that you want to make, then I have come up with another method that works with any shape.  Although with this method, you will need more than just paper!  If you only have paper and tape, then stick with the shapes listed above. Draw the shapes Now that you have drawn your shapes, scroll down and look at the tutorial! Draw lines from each side like in the pictures. Finish off the lines so they are boxes.  It doesn't matter if they are different lengths, we ...

Merry Quizmas by H.

Rowling This book is about a boy that loses his beloved stuffed pig, and goes on an adventure to the land of the lost to save it.  I loved The Christmas Pig when I read it for the first time last year and I can't wait to read it again.  It's an amazing book...

Super Pickle!:    💚😜🦸 As soon as Canva sent me this email, I knew I had to participate.  I think I've only participated in this challenge once or twice, and I even made a blog post about how to create a win-worthy design before.  So you're probably wondering what I'm talking about.  Canva is hosting a contest, and this weeks theme is Design a Super Hero Business Card!  I thought this sounded like a lot of fun when I saw this email: So I went to Canva and started designing.  If you win, they showcase your design to the Canva comunity!  The superhero I made is Super Pickle.  Here is his buisness card: Make sure to check it out on Instagram and give me a like if you like my design! His catch phrase is "Don't be a cucumber, be a pickle"... even though a pickle is technically a cucumber.  His (made up) address is 123 Kosher Lane.  And don't worry - Super Pickle is on the way to save the day! I actually was deciding between two diffe...

What you need: - construction paper - glue - tape - scissors - googly eyes (optional) How to Make it: 1. Cut out the body of the peacock.  Like the shape in the picture shown, just take a piece of coloured construction paper - any colour, it doesn't matter, its your choice. 2.
