Thanksgiving DIY Leaf and Pumpkin shaped Crayons Cards

There is never a lack of broken crayons in this house :D We decided to put them to good use this season. This is easy project for little hands, and nothing is better than giving extra Thanks to the people around us. 
Supplies: 
1. Fall-inspired cookie molds from local Michaels. Make sure they are silicone not plastic! 
{Oven safe}
2.Bunch of crayola crayons, color of your choice. We decided to do colorful pastel pumpkins and mix up some for leaves. 
3. Cards template can be found here{click} Only $2!
I have printed all the templates at my local Fedex on 110lb paper.
4.Glue or double-sided tape {whichever you have}
5. Excited little helper :)

{Part1} Take the paper off crayons. It can be a daunting task so here is a tip. Cut across with a sharp knife and let your little one to unwrap - much easier!

{Part2} Break them in to  pieces and sort out in to the molds. Place molds with crayons in to a baking dish {for easier removal} and bake in the oven for 20 minutes at 300 degrees.
{Part 3} Let them cool off for another 30 minutes before taking out of molds. 
Fix them on cards with the glue and enjoy the cuteness you've just made ! 
I also used some gold and silver leaf Rub&Buff for the pumpkin tops. 

Happy Thanksgiving ! 
xoxo
