Yesterday, September 19th, was the American Girl Craft event at Michael's Craft Store! My family and I went and it was a lot of fun! :D
We got to make three crafts, a pop-up photo frame, a pop-up gift tag, and a felt scrapbook! The pop-up frame and gift tag were crafts from the new 3-D Studio book, and the Scrapbook was a craft from the Funky Felt Crafts book. :) Here I am making the gift tag! I think that is my favorite craft we made, the cupcake is so cute! :D We got to meet some other girls too! Here they are showing some drawings they made in their Felt Scrapbooks! :) Hope and I had a lot of fun! I think it was cool that they did crafts for girls this year. Though, last year was really cool too! :) Here are our completed crafts that we made! :) Also, while we were at Michael's I bought one of the new books American Girl let out recently! It is the Button Crafts book! It has such cute ideas! I didn't know you could do so many things with buttons! :D
Did you get to go to the American Girl craft event? What was your favorite craft out of the three you made?










That's so cool Liz! I wish I could have gone. I had dance that day

I went too!
I think my favorite thing is the little scrapbook! There was a little girl there who was "helping" me with the craft. She was so cute!:) LOL
It was fun! And I can't wait for the next one!
Did you know that Micheals is going to be selling American Girl crafts that you can only get there?
I think that those will be around my house a little after Christmas time! LOL

I went too, Liz! I made all those crafts! My favorite craft to make would have to be the Scrapbook. It was really fun!
Also while I was there I got the Doll School Kit XD!
What was your favorite craft to make Liz??

I didn't get to go :( How often do they do the craft things?
Posted by: Dakota | November 07, 2009 at 07:01 PM
I got to go. I think my favorite thing to make was the scrapbook because it is doll-sized! But I really liked everything. Also I got to see every AG book almost! LOL I was SO surprised when I saw them I about fainted! I almost got them but then we decided to wait.
p.s. Did you know Michaels sells a ton of shoes and clothing for your 18" doll? I got some ballet flats!
