Thanks! I love doing crafts with kids. Last year I took sheest of card stock, folded them in half to make them 8 1/2x 5 1/2. Then I cut ovals out of both sides and glued a piece of transparency acetate to the inside of each oval. I had cut tiny pieces of all different kinds and colors of tissue paper and let the kids glue the tissue bits onto one of the acetate pieces. Then we glued the two sides together, punched a hole in the top and added a ribbon. VOILA!!! Beautiful "stained glass" sun catchers! They were thrilled with them. It was done at church to go along with a lesson of how even though we sometimes mess up our lives and fall to pieces that God can make us into something beautiful.
