March 21st World Down Syndrome Day Treat Project


At dance class the other night I overheard H ask N if she would please get out her Cricut and do a project for her. N said something like no way, I haven't used that Cricut in years and I don't want to do it hahahah. I had no idea what the project was but when I heard 'Cricut' I of course kinda yelled "wait, I have a Cricut! What do you need?" 

What was I thinking volunteering to do a project that I had no idea how big or small it was? I wasn't drunk and it wasn't even that late at night so I have no excuse LOL!!!! Good grief me. 

She showed me her inspiration photo and asked if I could Cricut the words and fish onto cards that she'll attach to small bags of rainbow Goldfish - not sure if this is for school or what and it didn't matter, of course I can Cricut her 30 4x5" cards and I'm happy to help. 


And then I woke up the next morning thinking oh no, Cricuting cards means formatting the words and the fish shapes, cutting them out with the Cricut machine, transferring each thing over to a card and stick all the pieces in place - 30 times! Um...that's a lot of work 🤦‍♀️ hahaha I still would have done it but then did a little research to see if I could maybe find the exact original project and if I was really lucky I'd be able to just use that to make the cards for her. 

I found the document here on wordpress; the creator was nice enough to make the project downloadable and I was even able to make changes to it - like moving the words and fish around, adding the year - and then print it. All I'd have to do at that point would be to cut the pages into 4 square cards each. 


I asked H if she actually wanted them made with the Cricut versus my just printing off this sheet that's already been formatted? She said she isn't crafty and to do whatever is easiest. Printing it is!!
