What My Child is Reading
All of our Friday Freebies will now be MyMemories Suite Compatible. What does that mean??? It means that you can now load the freebies directly into your MyMemories Suite Software, and then completely customize them with any paper and embellishments that you have. If you don't have the software, you can still download the sample project and the elements, but you will not be able to customize your project.
You can purchase the software and receive $10 off of your purchase and $10 of FREE paper/embellishments from the online store by using code STMMMS57311. You can also get a FREE Photobook! See my right sidebar for more INFO!
Today we have 2 great tutorials for you!! The first is how to customize your cards in MyMemories Suite Software, and the second is the instructions on how to put the flower cards together. Enjoy!!!
Flower Card Tutorial Using MyMemories Software to Customize your Flower Card
Download template file and install it into your software
Using MyMemories Suite, choose Create Album From Designer Template and find your project
Now you can print and enjoy the provided template, or customize it with your own papers and embellishments.
TIP:
You can right-click on the white guide and lock it in place to keep it from moving while you are working. Make sure this is the top layer of your project before printing.
Instead of adding the paper as a background paper, you can add it as an embellishment so that you can move the paper around. This is especially useful when using papers with stripes or circles, so you can decide which part of the paper you want to use.
Once it is added as an embellishment, you can now select the paper and move it into the position you want it.
Just SAVE and PRINT on cardstock!
Flower Card Tutorial How to Assemble your Flower Card
1. Print your file on cardstock.
2. Take your card template page and fold at all fold lines. A bone folder helps make the creases nie and crisp to help your finished card to look nicer.
3. There should be a total of 9 folds when you are done.
4. Cut out your card.
5. Turn your card over so that the printed side is down and pinch the sides of each petal together until all 6 petals are standing straight up.
6. Gently push all the petals in one direction until they lay flat.
7. You now have a flower card.
8. Tie a ribbon (not included) or something equivalent around the card to hold it closed.
9. Embellish as desired. This card was embellished with a circle cut out from a piece of background paper.
I’m so excited to be to have received the Toddler Bundle from Montessori Print Shop for a review and a giveaway. I had been eyeing several of the sets that are part of this bundle to use for upcoming units…I was able to use two of the sets thus far and have plans for the rest throughout the coming year!
The first set I used was the Butterfly Life Cycle Set I used this set on a tray along with the Butterfly Life Cycle figures from InsectLore.
The next set that I used was the Geometric Shapes Cards, along with some translucent geometric shapes and our homemade light table, we had a blast with these cards!
These are only 2 of 27 total sets of cards! This bundle is available for purchase for $49.72 (saving you 20% off of buying each set separately). Included in this bundle is:
This Bundle includes 27 Toddler materials. When printed the cards are approx. 4" x 4¾".

I Love Montessori Print Shop and have bought a wide variety of cards from their shop for a wide variety of activities for all of my children (I actually had purchased a few individual sets from this bundle pervious to this review) and I always love them!!
I really like these specific cards because they are so simple to use! They are slightly , bigger than 3 part cards (if you are familiar with those), you do not need to know much (if anything) about Montessori to be able to use these. They are great for younger kids, but can be used by older kids as well. Z is just turning 3, I will be using these cards primarily with him,as well as my youngest tot (who is just 17mos old). I love the wide variety of subjects they cover!
Montessori Print Shop have graciously offered to give one Toddler Bundle away as well! Just use the Rafflecopter Form below to enter! Check out the FREE materials Montessori Print Shop has to offer as well!!
