Stamp printables for collage work
It’s day 5 of homeschooling and today is working on art day. Now dead Nancy (as seen by the occasional post here) left us with a lot of stuff. A lot of paper stuff. That means when I work on art with the kids they have a lot of stuff to collage.
I’m taking some time and scanning some (a good chunk) so that you too can have more stuff to print out and use then just the junk mail that still comes.
