Book covers... back to school???

[pattyT]

Am I the only dork who actually 'alters' the kids paper book covers for them?
DD had a teacher who didn't allow the stretchie fabric covers and told them to do the old paper bag thing - so I stayed up late punching sizzllette letters in her name, the subject etc..
I used MM pink [aint on 2 areas then used drywall tape and put the Rat a Tat SCIENCE letters ontop of that then some little dragonfly stickers....
I used Azure for her name on it too - way cute!
I even coated it with some mod podge...

LOL Patty! Is anything really 'off limits' as far as altering is concerned? I actually look forward to being able to do this once my kids are in higher grades. Well, not really sure how my son will react, but I know my daughter will love it!

PAtty -

Please tell me your child is still in elementary school. Because if she is in middle or high school she is going to take a major load of teasing for that. Now the altering they do themselves in the form of doodles is fine...but if Mom did...oh my I can hear the wailing and knashing of teeth right now!
