\"Kid'sChallenge-01\"<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Welcome to another of our annual\u00a0Simon Says Stamp\u00a0<\/a>Summer Vacation\u00a0Kid’s\u00a0Challenge where we host a special challenge dedicated to our young designers.<\/p>\n

ANYTHING GOES WITH GLITTER<\/span><\/h1>\n

It is time for all you crafters to let your children loose in your crafty corners for a few hours. Just close your eyes and set them free to explore their creativity. You are allowed to hide your Copic Markers and extra special papers and you are allowed to help just a little bit if necessary, but we really want the children to ‘DO IT’ themselves as much as possible.<\/p>\n

This challenge is open to all children aged between\u00a02\u00a0and\u00a016\u00a0inclusive<\/h2>\n

We have not 1, not 2 but \u00a03\u00a0surprise parcels of crafty goodies, hand picked by Simon!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Please give them a warm welcome and leave comments for them on their blog posts. Thank You xx<\/p>\n
