Remember Your Childhood View Master ?

I think it was one of my favorite toys when I was a kid. I had one set of wheels that were Winnie the Pooh and they came in a green can that held them and the view master itself and I'm sure I looked at them a billion kazillion times ;)

Over on SCS they have a tutorial for this technique and it's so fun and easy!! Take a look when you get a chance, I'd love to see what you come up with.


My niece's birthday is today and I wanted to send her a 'cool' card, she's 7 this year and I figured it was a great year for something like this. I pulled out my Loads of Love with the Accessories along with my retired Boatloads of Love. The wheel has presents, dogs, flowers and hearts. I hope she has fun turning it to see what comes up next.

Happy Birthday Madison, enjoy your day!!! We love you!

Set: Boatloads of Love, Loads of Love & Accessories
Accessories: Prints Pack DP, Pacific Point, Bashful Blue, Gable Green & Confetti White cardstocks, White Taffeta, Anchor Punch (Martha Stewart), Silver Cord, Black EP, Inks w/Aqua Painter

This is so fun! Yes, I had a viewmaster...it was metal. My kids have them, but they don't love them as I did mine!!

This is sooooo cool, Katie!! Your niece will love it :)

I think my view master is still in my mom's attic along with a view master project I had. We'd sit in my grandma's hallway, project it on the bathroom door, and create our own movies for hours :)
