Disclosure: I wrote this post while participating in a program on behalf of HP and received and HP ENVY Rove 20 TouchSmart All-in-one and an HP ENVY 4500 e-All-in-One printer as part of my participation.

The challenge: Get Crafty.
My kids are now at the age where they want to do crafts and honestly I am not a crafty mama. I can though follow directions and luckily my kids are happy with simple crafts. My new HP Touchsmart ENVY computer and printer are my new best friends when it comes to being crafty.
First there is the Snapfish by HP Print at Home Homepage, which has so many amazing free printables. I found some great Halloween decorations and started with a pumpkin for my daughter to color:
Next up is Origami Fun:
I found a Free Monster Truck Printable, perfect for my son!
I printed the template with my HP ENVY printer and we folded and glued it together. Look at home amazing the ink quality is from the printer!
Next up is the Turbo board game I printed. Again look at the awesome quality of the ink!
Just print it out and glue and fold the pieces together, everything you need for the game is included and printed for free!
Finally there is the Microsoft Windows Fresh Paint App, which is a free app that offers tons of colors, canvases and features! My kids love to doodle on this and are constantly saving and printing their work. This is an app that is amazing with a touchscreen computer as you can really control your art tool with a swipe of your finger. This is probably our favorite app on the HP Touchsmart.
