You can also learn a lot of things from your 4th grade teacher, and on that note, I have some cards to share with you today, using this awesome flower from the December KOTM, {Delightful Moments}. I made this set as a teacher gift for my 4th grade DD's teacher, Mrs. Tate.
So, in addition to going in on a class gift, I wanted to make her something special; something from the heart. I asked my DD and found out that she loves earthy, organic things and bright colors....so I came up with these. I used the Basic Grey Nook and Pantry line of DP-LOVE IT! The fun fabric brads came from BG Nook and Pantry line as well.
I left the notecards blank so that she could use them for almost anything, included some envelopes, and also created a box to put them in.
For the box itself, I used the sentiment "You Make the Good Times GREAT". DD picked it out herself from my Because of You stamp set from IPPITY! and I think it really says a lot about how her teacher takes a normal day or lesson and turns it into something memorable.
Again using the Basic Grey Nook and Pantry DP, I covered this cute card box (from Taylored Expressions) and brightened it up with some fun ribbon from PTI. The BEST part came in the form of My DD's little note inside to her teacher:
Isn't this the SWEETEST? LOVE handmade gifts. LOVE when they're given to a teacher from a child....LOVE this time of year! It just puts a big, sunny smile on my face and I hope it makes you smile, too :)
