School's Out For Summer Blog Hop!


Welcome to the School's Out For Summer Blog Hop!  If you came here from Anita's blog, you are in the right place. If you are just hanging around my blog but want to participate in this blog hop, you can do so by clicking here.

When summer comes around, I most look forward to beautiful sunny weather and participating in  tons of outdoor activities.  That is why I put together this coupon book.  I made this to give as a gift to a little girl or boy who has finally finished their school year! It's full of coupons that allow them to redeem one a week, but the catch is that everytime they redeem a coupon, they have to journal about the experience.  That way at the end of their summer, the kids have a memory book to look back on and can share with their friends at the start of the new school year.

A little coupon disclaimer on the inside cover!
I got the handy little coupon image from the Cricut Mother's Day seasonal cartridge. This image is adorable! It even has a perforated edge to tear away the coupon!
Recipe:
Cricut Seasonal Mother's Day cartridge (for the coupons)
