Teacher Gifts – Card Sets

Hello.

I forgot to share what I made for Colin's teachers this year.  He goes to a Montessori, so he has several teachers – 6 right now.  They each got a set of 10 cards.  Wanted to make more, but ran outta time. 

Each set was in a clear box with a matching bow.  Each card is embossed with a Cuttlebug or Quickutz embossing folder, along with some simple stamping added.  (No coloring = big timesaver.)  I used two of my favorite stamp companies: Hero Arts and Papertrey Ink.  Each envelope is stamped on the flap to match the cards.

The embossed background really brings the cards to life, even though they are simple.  I also covered some of the stamped images with smeared sitckles for fun.  The photos are bad (as usual for me), but here they are…

Supplies: Quickutz and Cuttlebug Embossing Folders, Hero Arts stamps (flourish, big butterfly, all greetings, flower and apple), Papertrey Ink stamps (stars, damask, hearts), Diamond Stickles, Hero Arts notecards, Shadow Inks and gems

(ETA: That last card was inspired by Dawn McVey.  She rocks.)

I had fun Slip 'N Sliding with Audrey and Colin tonight.  Audrey was so happy to have me join her.  I will likely be sore tomorrow – off to rest. 🙂

Thanks for stopping by…
