Year of the Tiger - CNY Craft Ideas

According to the Chinese Zodiac, the Year of 2010 is the Year of a Tiger (which is Emma's year) and begins on February 14, 2010 and ends on February 2, 2011. I've been collecting CNY Tiger crafting ideas and here are a few suggestions and websites that look fun.

    I found you googling tiger craft ideas. I need something cute for our CNY party on Sat!

    My name is also Kim, and I have adopted 3 from China, 2 SN- most recently in 2008, our son ToF who also required surgery the weekend we got home from China.

    It was fun to find you. Thanks for making my internet search so easy!

    So crafty - how do you find the time?

    Hey, what are your plans for CNY, can we get together? I think we're planing the GVSU thing on the 12th, but we'll plan on getting there ON TIME this year! Save a seat for at least 3-4 of us, okay?

    Oh, Kim Brown, one of your commenters on this post is a cyber friend of mine! Her youngest son is from Ella's CWI (one of only a handful to be adopted out from there).

    Anyway, let's get together again SOON!
