Before I show my project, I just wanted to know if any of you have seen the new K & Co Smash Time Capsules??? They look like sooooo much fun, and what a clever idea! I think they would be fun to give to your kids to make, then save them, and give them back in 5-10 years, or when they grow up. OR when they have a child the same age as when they made it! I just think they are so very cool! I think I'll give one to my oldest niece this year sometime!
Ok, on to my project!
I saw this paper at Michaels quite a while ago:

I knew right away that I wanted to make a match game out of it!
So, I cut two of each character out that matched, and I was able to get two different cards of each character for a total of 12 matches, (or 24 cards.)
The character squares turned out to be just barely under 1 3/4" so I decided to mat on purple cardstock cut at 2" x 2"
I used this Mickey paper for the back sides, (also found at Michaels, and also cut down to 2" x 2"
I then laminated them with my Xyron.
And the final step is to PLAY!!
I like that I made two of each character, because when I play with my 2 year old niece, 12 cards is plenty! But when I play with her big sister, my 6 year old niece, we need the full 24 cards!
This was SUCH a simple project! The entire thing maybe took me a half hour, (and that's only because I'm blind and can't see to cut very well!
I hope you like my project! Have a great weekend, and thanks for stopping by!
