Teacher card set…

Hello!

Well, this year I made about 110 cards to give to teachers.  Each teacher received between 8 and 20 cards in a set – all personalized with their name.  I think this is a great way to show appreciation.  And, the head teachers each got a gift certificate to the farmer's market.

So, this was one set for one of the teachers – Colin's favorite teacher.  She is incredible to say the least.  I used some fun stamps from a new company called Lawn Fawn.  Not only do I like their stamps, but they are made in the US (great quality and stamp wonderfully) and the owner is super sweet.  (You know how that stuff means a lot to me.)  So, you will be seeing me use their stamps often.  For details on how I made these, read below…

I think there were 10 in this set – all different colors but the same basic design.

Glossy Accents adds great shine to this simple card.  So cool in real life…

And I put them in a clear box and wrapped them with a ribbon…

Supplies: Lawn Fawn stamps; Copic Markers; Memory Box notecards; Glossy Accents; Quickutz cork paper; Corner Chomper; Cuttlebug embossing folder; American Typewriter font; Neenah paper

To make these, I printed out "a note from Ms. Noran" a bunch of times on a piece of Neenah white cardstock.  I inked just the top of the Lawn Fawn typewriter image to make the paper around it.  I then stamped the top of it again for the bottom of the paper.  I stamped the pins separately, colored them with Copics and cut them out.  I put these on a piece of cork paper and added Glossy Accents to the pins for shine.  So simple, fun to make and personalized perfectly for a teacher. :)  Here is the set I used…

I will share the other teacher card sets soon.  Off to work on Cards for Kids stuff.  Night!  (If you know of a child you would like to add, now is the time to let me know.  Thanks!  And prizes will be announced soon.)
