Since we did not have time in the schedule to have a party for our only gender reveal, I still wanted to do something fun for family and close friends. I went with the scratch-off idea. I got cards printed with all of the words from Jamie Konet, which turned out to be so cute. I then colored a heart when we got the gender results. I covered the heart with a peel-and-stick laminated sheet which was painted and then punched. The paint was two part paint and one part dish soap. It actually seemed to scratch off really easy. Although I didn't properly measure it out, so the mixture was probably just a bit too much soap. Also, the punch did not turn out great. I read about someone else using a punch, which is why I did it. I think it was the punch I was using and not the idea. We are calling the baby "Lucky" at the moment so I tried a four-leaf clover punch. I think it was either too small or at least parts of it were too small. I only got a few which looked completely whole after punching. Anyway, it was a lot of fun to do the project. It has been a while since I have had a chance to do any project really so I was really itching for one.
