color matching game.. how to

who doesn't love picking out paint colors? while at a local paint shop I picked up a couple extra color cards.. how about a color matching game and a sweet little carry case?



for the game..you'll need:
paint sample color cards
1 inch hole punch
wooden circle game pieces (i found mine at Michaels)
glue


punch 2 circles of each color & glue




for the carry bag.. you'll need:
piece of fabric 14.5 x 6 inches
ribbon
safety pin
4 cut felt 1 inch circles
fabric glue stick
sewing machine


glue the circles into place, you'll just need a tiny bit of glue so that the felt does not shift as you are stitching


stitch around the circles.. I used a blanket stitch


fold fabric, right sides together and stitch each end allowing a 1/4 seam allowance, don't forget to back-stitch on each end

turn bag right side out.. fold and press ends, then stitch to make the pocket for the ribbon



using a seam ripper, carefully open up one side of your tiny bag..
attach the safety pin to your ribbon and feed the ribbon through the bag

Ummmm...hello yes! Big fan of paintchips/samples and making stuff with them. So want to make these too.

I LOVE this game and those froggy PJS are adorable. Also loving the gnome fabric on the baby booties.

Having so much fun looking through your posts!
